• Couples aren’t ready to admit when they are having a hard time conceiving and often aren’t realistic about how long they’ve really been trying to conceive.  Also they assume if they go to see a specialist, they will have to go high-tech which is not necessarily true..

• Couples often think the reason they aren’t conceiving is just because they aren’t having enough sex or because when they do, it’s just not the right timing.  Also they will assume that time is on their side, when with fertility, that isn’t always the case.

• Get yourself healthy.  Watch BMI, stress, and be aware of the mind/body connection. 
• Get evaluated early and know what your options are. 
• A scientific and holistic approach have shown to have great outcomes.

• stress is a huge factor
• education
• work with additional holistic approaches, like acupuncture.

• "The Everything Fertility Book" by Nicole Galan, a former nurse with Fertility Specialists Medical Group

• Don’t wait!  Come in early, get educated, and take your time to make the best decisions for you.
