I’m a vegetarian and a gym addict; but while pregnant with my second daughter, I craved roast beef sandwiches and chocolate and peanut butter ice-cream on almost a daily basis.  The first time I asked my husband to pick me up a roast beef sandwich and a pint of ice-cream, I thought he was going to faint.  I still laugh to this day thinking about it.

Having children has always been a struggle for me, it took me 4yrs and a lot of fertility shots to become pregnant with my daughter and another 3yrs and a bunch more fertility shots to become pregnant with my son. Along those years of trying, I had several heart-wrenching miscarriages. I, like many women, suffer from endometriosis, which makes it more difficult to get pregnant and sometimes, reduces your chance to have a successful pregnancy up to 30-40%. It’s a battle that I fight and that women fight every day and I continue to hope that one day, Doctors will find some other cure besides surgery.
