Hello all....

I'm a feature writer for a national newspaper and am looking for three ladies to be featured in a spread I'm writing.

We'd like to do a positive, uplifting piece about, for instance, a woman who gave up a stressful city job in order to try to conceive, someone who abandoned a strict diet/exercise regime to put on weight and get pregnant and someone who gave up their party lifestyle to have a baby.

I'm also open to other suggestions about what was 'given up' if you, or someone you know has a slightly different story?

The ladies must have given up their 'thing' to GET pregnant - not BECAUSE they were pregnant.


It would be a very straight forward, nice re-telling of the person's story and involve about 30 mins interview time. You/they would also get professional shots done of mum and baby/kids.


Can pay expenses though there isn't likely to be any - in most cases I can do a phone interview and the photographer will be sent to the home address.


Really hope there are some doting mums with fun, uplifting tales to tell of their quest to get pregnant, who will get in touch!

Pm me if so.

Many thanks.

The best thing i found that helped me get pregnant was giving up alcohol 3 months prior to falling pregnant, i was on a 12 week training programme for the 'Run to the beat' half marathon!! I found out i was pregnant a week before the half marathon, but still ran it, me and my embryo (i was 6 weeks pregnant) completed the half marathon in 2 hours 12 mins...such an amazing buzz!! :))

My old boss tried for many years to get pregnant, through natural and assisted means. Finally, she packed in her job to give it her full attention, and lo and behold at around 45, she managed it. I will try and see if I can get in touch with her.
i saw an acupuncturist to get pregnant who had a bit of a holistic view of trying to conceive so the list was endless - booze (of course), pork, any processed food, any spicy food, citrus fruit, seafood, the list was endless! and i was only allowed to eat organic. worked though.....

    • It's great that the council will do this, but it does seem a costly waste of their scarce resources, unless there are factors which I don't know about? Surely rather than dealing with a few piles of dog poo on request on an as and when basis they need to find some way of addressing the whole problem? What do other boroughs/countries do? Have things got worse since COVID, when the dog population seems to have quadrupled round here? Did some people acquire dogs without thinking through the less cuddly aspects of ownership? Could dogs be trained to use a litter tray and/or bury their own poo, like cats do? 🤣 (That was a joke, btw).

    • They could refund tix already bought though, couldn't they? We did this recently when we had to reschedule a gig due to the headliner's serious illness. That was a bit different because people had the option to transfer their tix to the new date when confirmed. But in  theory everybody could have got a refund, though in practice only a few people took that option up.
    • They probably won't want to after all their sterling efforts last time ended in a rather unexpected way!
