7-8 births/year over 47 in Japan

Catherine McDiarmid-Watt | Wednesday, June 05, 2013 | 0 comments

One thing I was psyched to hear about:

In Japan, there are about 7 - 8 live births per year from women age 47.

Donor eggs are illegal in Japan, so that's why they keep on trying with their own eggs.

Cool, huh?

With Wright's proven diet and lifestyle-based program, you can influence your reproductive hormones and take charge of your health.

About Catherine: I am mom to three grown sons, two grandchildren and two rescue dogs. After years of raising my boys as a single mom, I remarried a wonderful man who had never had a child of his own. Unexpectedly, I found myself pregnant at 49!
Sadly we lost that precious baby at 8 weeks, and decided to try again. Five more losses, turned down for donor egg, foster care and adoption due to my age and losses - we have accepted that there will be no more babies in our house.
