Getting Pregnant the Natural Way - Part 1

By Amy Roberts

Greetings, this is the first part of three discussing how to boost fertility through use of natural herbal remedies. Throughout these articles we will talk about how people throughout history have put herbal remedies to use to raise the likelihood of getting pregnant.

It has been, for thousands of years, a common practice to utilize wild herbs and plants as a means to increase fertility.

All written documentation of this almost disappeared following the holocaust against EU Smart Girls(the "burning times"), and the indigenous American medication girls being all but wiped out. Many people mistakenly assumed that "primitive people" were not able to regulate the possibility of becoming pregnant. These beliefs were incorrect.

Plants such as red clover, partridge berry, liferoot, wild carrot, and wild yam can lead the way to successful fertilization.

Red clover (Trifolium pratense) is the most frequently used natural fertility aid. You will commonly find these bright pink blossoms, a favorite of honeybees, growing in fields and alongside roads from mid-Summer to the first frost in Fall. While in full bloom on bright sunny days, the tops of the plants are cropped and are then either eaten, or dried for medicinal purposes. They can be transformed into a fertility aid by combining in a quart sized canning jar one ounce of the dried blossoms filled with boiling water. The mixture must then steep a minimum of four hours, but preferably overnight, with the lid screwed on tightly.

There are many testimonials that after drinking up to four cups of this infusion each day, women have successfully became pregnant. In the instances of scarred fallopian tubes, irregular menstrual cycles, abnormal cells in the reproductive tract, or otherwise "unexplained" issues of infertility, red clover can be the remedy women are hoping for. The time line of success, of course, is less predictable. It may take 1-2 months or 1-2 years of regular use for the herb's full effect to come about. To add variety and enhance flavor, get creative! One idea is add a few spoonfuls of peppermint when preparing for steeping.

This is only the first part of three, be sure to continue reading parts two and three to learn more about fertility and getting pregnant. - 30525
