So on my profile (hopefully) there is a picture of the famous fertility statues. They are currently on display at ripleys believe it or not in Orlando. In September 2008 I touched these statues and then conceived in my third month of trying in 2009. I had been trying for 9 months to Conceive dc2 when I saw something about the statues and saved a photo of them to my ipad. I dutifully touched the photo a couple of times and now in the tenth month of trying I am pregnant!
Now I know its probably a load of bull and it was probably just my time to get pregnant but anyone want to give it a go and report back on this thread? Would be interesting not very scientific at all experiment.
Let me know if the photo isn't there but hopefully it is on my profile.

Hi Treaclepie19. Sorry about your mc. Have just give the pic a good few strokes Blush. What harm can it do. Fingers crossed!

I've just read right through this thread and I'm going to give this pic a good rub I'm in the 2ww 2nd cycle of ttc again after a 6 month break, I'm 2 years and 4 mc down the line so I'll try anything! While on holiday this summer we went to a place called adonis falls where there is a big naked statue and you have to rub his balls for fertility (which obviously I did ) so I've got double helpings of woo....watch this space :)

HalfPintLulu · 13/10/2013 07:48
