Topics Discussed in This Episode:

• Why it's important for women to take time upfront to prepare their body for pregnancy
• The 4r method for preparing your body for pregnancy
• Some important things that you should know about pregnancy testings
• Sperm testing

Key Takeaways:

• There’s a three to seven-month window for the primordial egg to mature before it releases at ovulation. So anything that you put into your body, everything you do, and the environment that you surround yourself with within that period prior to getting pregnant is going to impact the health and quality of that egg and the health of the baby.
• There’s a lead time of about 72 days for a sperm to develop to its most mature state before it can actually fertilize an egg.

Action Steps:

• If you want to get pregnant, take the time upfront to balance your hormones, get healthy, and improve the quality of your egg (and sperm).
