About eighteen months ago, my husband and I tied the knot at what can only be described as my dream wedding. We decided to start trying for a family straight away and almost 2 months later I discovered I was pregnant for the first time in my life. We were overjoyed. We went for our 12 week scan only to be told the devastating news that our baby had died at about 8 weeks and that I would have to have an operation to remove our baby. We were heartbroken, and our world just fell apart.

I was determined to become pregnant ASAP after the operation so about 2 months later I discovered that I was pregnant again. What a mixed bag of emotions. I was happy to become pregnant so fast but incessantly worried that this pregnancy would end up like the last one. Another 2 months later I lost the baby. So we decided to do some investigative work and began attending a fertility doctor. It turned out that my hormones were all over the place and could not support a healthy pregnancy. I got started on lots of medication and almost 8 months later it looks like the medication is working so we’re about to start trying again. Over the last week or so I started to read The Secret. It is glaringly obvious that I was the creator of our losses. All my life I’ve always been a worrier. I worried non-stop and one of those worries was ‘How terrible it would be to not be able to have kids’. I worried and fretted that the 2nd pregnancy would end up like the 1st and guess what? It did.

Out of curiosity I decided to take a look at The Secret’s website. I suppose I wanted some proof from other users that The Secret might work. So I click on Stories and on Health and to my amazement, the very 1st story I read was about a lady who had used positive thinking to have a healthy baby after having suffered 4 miscarriages. This is proof enough for me. From now on, no more worrying. I know that this pregnancy is going to go the distance and I know that I’m having a healthy baby (bear in my mind I’m not pregnant yet – we’re still working on that – but I’m thinking of what I want in the present). I’m going to get my hubby in on the Secret as well – the more positive energy about his pregnancy the better!!
