I would suggest you watch the free documentary on you tube called “Super Juice me”. It’s a powerful documentary about how good clean juicing really does heal the body. Also, the book Eat to live by Dr Joel Fuhrman see his you tube videos. These might reset your hormones properly. One of the hormones that they use for IVF is progesterone. Which you can balance & produce with a good clean diet. Look into “Adrenal fatigue symptoms” also. Sites like Dr Lam. com & Adrenal fatigue. org are both excellent at providing info both have books...look at their symptoms list. You might be suffering from this too with all the hard work you do. It is believed that every adult will suffer from adrenal gland issues. Get tested for vitamin & mineral deficiency. Both of you are most likely deficient in B complex, D, magnesium (it is believed 1 in 3 people are deficient in these vitamins) all are needed to keep the brain functioning correctly & keep the body calm (helps with adrenal issues). Wishing you all the best.

My wife and I tried for six years and then adopted a baby boy. Six months later, she was pregnant and we ended up with TWO! Best of all, they were only 15 months apart in age so they got to play and made up for our frustration. Good things come to those who patiently wait, I suppose. . . Best wishes to all of you on the farm and enjoy your time in Finland.

Undiagnosed Celiac Disease cause infertility and difficulty in getting pregnant. I am a celiac and a nurse and have extensively studied this auto immune disease. The countries who have the highest rate of celiac disease are the Scandinavian countries. I am Italian, Italy has the second highest rate, and my fathers family are all Celiac’s. Congratulations on your pregnancy. What a wonderful life you have made for yourselves off grid. Lots of hard work, but so worth it. I too love to can and preserve, at 75 it is very satisfying to grow food and preserve it. Loved to see what you are doing with fermentation and preserving. When you have more even heating in your new cabin it will be easier. Just found your site and subscribed, want to see your pregnancy progress and a baby for you.

My first child happened quickly, once I stopped birth control. Three months later I was expecting. After our first son was 6 months old, we began trying again. I was still breastfeeding so I think that kept me from ovulating. After I weaned my first son, we started to take my temperature everyday to watch for ovulation. I took my temperature everyday and kept records for 3 years. I was so disappointed. So, I stopped taking my temperature, stopped analyzing everything. I think I stopped taking my prenatal vitamins and even ate some junk food. LOL. The very next month......😊. 8 months and 18 days later we had our second baby boy. Totally natural. First baby labor was 4 hours, second labor under 2 hours. I gardened a lot when I was pregnant. I did my gardening in the squatting position. This helped my pelvis to be more supple and helped the perineum to stretch on it's own during delivery. Love your videos. Your sauerkraut looks awesomely delicious. Blessings to the 3 of you. ❤

For a long time the theater and tv and movies dominated the scene and you could never get to know the actors and sometimes if you did, you could be very disappointed. Acting can be a real glory-hound business and we all like a fairytale ending sometimes, but these videos are amazing how real and down-to-earth these young people are. It is relaxing as many of you have said and I give them genuine praise for what they are trying to accomplish. It also takes a lot of work and I sure hope they don't stress about it because for us it's producing tranquility and real helpful information. THANK YOU!

Welcome. I watched all the episodes in a few days and I have some insights: 1. The content you publish is great. 2. I know how to build a water intake for the needs of animals and for the home. What's more, I have an idea what to do to prevent water from freezing. 3. Regarding animal husbandry and focusing on one particular species is a good idea. Personally, I would choose cows and goats plus chickens because they will eat everything that is left of the household. 4. Regarding the pantry, remember that it must have waterproofing. Before backfilling the walls from outside, give a bucket foil. 5. Above the pantry it is worth making a green roof. This will allow for better thermal insulation of the pantry rooms. 6. It is necessary to make a water step on the stream. 7. For assembly at home, look for recycled box windows. 8. Ultimately, you can run a farm in the house in which you currently live. Wildlife plus food. Fair food. 9. Regarding pregnancy, that's a big congratulation. At the same time, I immediately say that you will certainly miss the peace that you currently have. Best wishes from Poland, specifically from Lipnica in Lower Silesia. We are already waiting for spring because the beekeeping season is coming soon.

We were told that I could not get pregnant due to scar tissue on my fallopian tubes from a prior surgery that I had as a child..We were told our only choices were IVF (which was too expensive or adoption) We had accepted our fate and were living our best lives possible under the circumstances..Then one day I decided to take a pregnancy test because I had not had my period in around 4 weeks (which was normal for me at times) I remember watching the test turn positive and I called my friend because my husband was at work..I told her about my positive result and she laughed (because her and her husband had issues with getting pregnant also and she goes I just found out I was pregnant a couple of hours ago) So long story short I had to rush into my doctors office to make sure that this was not a tubal pregnancy because my chances of pregnancy was 0% according to all of the top specialists that we talked to about my situation..My doctor just goes well it looks like someone is having a baby after my scan and we were over the moon with the news..I gave birth to a healthy baby boy in August of that year and my bestfriend had her daughter a month earlier in July..After our experience I realized that doctors are not all knowing and to never give up believing in your hearts desire for a child..Sorry this was long but I just wanted to share our story to maybe give some hope to others that are struggling with infertility issues..

I'm 26 now and hoping to have a baby in the next few years but I haven't had my period in over 7 months. Veganism destroyed me physically and mentally, defiantly needs to be spoken about more.

I've been watching your channel for a couple years now. I decided to go back to the beginning and watch what i missed. I wanted to comment. I married my husband at 25. We tried for years to get pregnant. After expensive treatments didn't work, we gave up. Then since we both worked, i decided to get surgery on my jaws to move them into the correct position. I had a very bad overbite. The process started by getting braces. I wore them a long time. Then when it was time to break my jaws and reset them, i got pregnant! Of course, i chose not to risk surgery! I was 31, when i gave birth to my 1st of 3 children..... The last 2 came quickly after that. I was 34 when i had my last. 2 boys and 1 girl. I never did get my surgery. My jaws are in pain 24/7, but i live with it. My children, grand children and great grandchildren give me so much joy. God bless you all. I love your channel. I'm Swedish and Norwegian but have never been to either country so i live my ancestry through you. ❤️🙏🏼🤗

We tried for 4 years, I did have thyroid issues but nothing else. The Lord blessed us with a boy and then 6 months after his birth I was pregnant again surprisingly with a girl. In the end I had 5 pregnancies (one miscarriage) and we now have 3 boys and 1 daughter ages 22 years down to 15 years old. Very close together. The nurse told me it was probably good that I got pregnant again quickly since I had previously had trouble. Sometimes it can be the stress of trying too hard but it’s not an easy thing to go through when you do want children. Congratulations on your healthy baby as I see from your newer videos. And thanks for your willingness to share your story. It is hard as sometimes you do feel alone.

Grew all our vegetables, raised pigs, chickens and cows. My father's uncle had a dairy and still hand milked cows and goats. He called his cows in a similar fashion as your video openings. Watching your vlogs, gives me hope for the younger generations. Thank you and keep up the wonderful work. Congratulations on your pregnancy.

I've just saw the Video now - and no, you're not alone! It took us not three but a good two years. Two years of frustration after a while. It was also a time we've had lots of stress during much work, renovating a house, having no time for nothing else than just keep on doing. The doctors always said, there is nothing wrong - i think the nature decided it wasn't our time yet. After my first daugther was born early 2020 we decided to soon start again if it takes that long - what should i say... 14 months after the first daugther, the second was also there. Maybe it was also the way we're eating now, using as less industrialy produced food as possible, growing own animals and vegetables which makes me also feel much better :)

You are both so amazing. Congratulations on your own pregnancy - even though this is 2 years later. Watching videos from the beginning, I am enjoying your videos so much.

I truly believe it is caused by several factors. First and foremost is the prevalence of plastics with our foods. Most food is packaged in plastic, eaten or drank from plasticware and stored in plastic. The chemicals leach into your food. I read an article, many years ago, about this problem in a medical journal. The article stated that we would start seeing a rise in infertility, due to the fact that the following generation will have been ingesting plastic chemicals since infancy. It has proven true. The other problem, I see, is GMO produce and the amount of chemicals required to grow them. They are constantly being sprayed with pesticides, herbicides, fertilizers and every other cide. It gets in the plants and the ground water. This explains why cancer rates are higher in agricultural areas. These are just a couple of the reasons I think cause infertility. These are my opinions only. I'm no expert, but I pay attention.

I just found your channel and am kind of browsing through and loving your videos. The first one I watched was Tovar's tour in winter of your home. I have always liked the idea of living away and being self reliant--alas, I must be only an observer. The best I can do, maybe, where I am at is simplify. Im 60 years old now, and have had rheumatoid arthritis all of my adult life, just many ups and downs and downs with health. Good health--what a complete and utter blessing! Anyhow, I so enjoy you and your little family. Your magical Christmas in the forest video brought me so much peace and joy. You have to be the most peaceful and CALM off grid people Ive stumbled across. This is a good thing. Ivar is just adorable! So greetings from Carfax Cottage, Carla, and Alice the cat, from Pennsylvania🇺🇸 Much love💗

I wish you all the luck and happiness with the pregnancy x

I love the way you interact with each other using body language. Your energy flows through each other and acts as one soul. My husband and I are the same way and people notice and comment on it all the time. Mutual respect and trust in each other, no matter what hardships you face, is what keeps this connection so intimate. This is so inspiring and I’ve had the dream of having a hobby farm/homesteading since I was a young girl. It will happen, but the process is slow. We live in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada and in the winter we have -30C weather (and colder) for weeks at a time, so there are a lot of issues to take into consideration when planning to live off grid.

I've been following your journey for a long time but never left a comment before. Thank you both for sharing your story with pregnancy, there is so much that really resonates with our struggles witc conceiving a while ago. It took three years for us as well to get pregnant of our firstborn daughter. We went through all kinds of examinations and nothing wrong was found. Doctor's advice was to get a puppy and let go of stressing out... We had three dogs, flock of hens and sheep back then so no, we didn't get a puppy :D Afterall I got pregnant and our daughter is now almost 4 years old. After that we got our second child, a girl as well, she's now 1,5 years and she kinda popped out of nowhere after we had decided that it isn't a disaster if we never had another one :D What I want to say, three years can feel very long time and I am so happy for you guys that one of your big dreams finally came true. We have been raising our children among with nature, animals and self-sufficient lifestyle for all their life, and allthough there is a lot of work, it is all worth it. Children are so happy to run amongst the woods and learn to live with the animals. I couldn't imagine more lovely life for a baby that your wee one is going to be born :) Thank you for you both being such an inspiration

Merry Christmas to you both and your animal family. Kombucha here needs to be burped every day and we only let it second ferment for 2-3 days, then cool and taste, if not fizzy enough, we'll bring back to warm area for a day. The bottle will explode, we had this happen when we first started and it was a horrible mess of glass shards and sticky kombucha everywhere. We love fermented carrots and cabbage. I also love to make our own vinegars, this year we did pineapple, raspberry and blackberry vinegars, besides the apple cider vinegar that is a main stay around here. Praying for a health pregnancy for you and your little blessed baby. So good to see a vlog from you both and enjoy your time away.

Low serum Leptin (a hormone) levels in women could be an important predictive marker in unexplained infertility. Diet, exercise, stress levels, and more importantly body weight play a major role in a woman’s chances of getting pregnant. In colder climates where caloric intake necessities may be higher, childbearing aged women (especially those with idiopathic infertility) should be closely monitored for their serum level Leptin.

Yes @ajmkendrick is right. We had our baby boy after 8 years. We visited many doctors and infertility specialists, but we were classified into unexplained infertility category. We gave up all the stressful chores and we had set a time line of 10 months, in this period if I cannot get pregnant, we shall adopt a non-biological baby. I am from India people were not that open to this opinion much during 2000's. Fortunately, my husband was very supportive and understanding. After this decision, de-stressing and a complete change in our diet and lifestyle made me to get pregnant with 2 months. Nothing is as bad enemy like the stress we carry in loads these days, unknowingly. Most of our modern day dwelling is completely blended with stress. Very minimal humans really dwell their lives. One time life, let us be happy, truthful and healthy from inside out. You guys are doing an incredible job. Really paving way for next generation kids and showing them the truth of our evolution. I got pregnant at age of 35 years. Health c-section. Everything will fall at right time. May u 3 do many happy activities 😊

I live in Florida - I brew Kombucha I use 1 gallon of tea with 1 cup of organic sugar. If you mix the sugar into warm/cool team it's easier than trying to mix it into hot liquid (it gets sticky). When tea is room temperature, add the SCOBY and a cup of tea from the previous batch, , then cover the jar with cheesecloth so it can breathe, then sit that in the pantry (warm, dark place) undisturbed for 2 - 4 weeks. Then bottle with what you like. Fruit (fressh, dry, defrosted, - just enough to cover the bottom of the bottle). Seal, wash and dry bottles - then back to the pantry for a few days (until it is carbonated and has the flavor you want), then put it the bottles in the fridge. Is the cool temperature that stops the fermentation. Always open slowly, over the sink. I find it gets more carbonated if it gets a piece of SCOBY in the bottle. I bought various flavors of Kom to see what I like best an saved the heavy-glass bottles (so they won't explode) to bottle my home brew. Tart Cherry is my favorite flavor. They say you should not use metal in the process. The SCOBY will gobble up the sugar, it turns more acidic (vinegar) less than 1 percent alcohol and terrific health benefits). Symbiotic Colony of Bacteria and Yeast (SCOBY). Enjoy. When in doubt g o o g l e. After you bottle up the gallon start another. SCOBY will last in sweet tea for years.

In regards to fertility & getting pregnant. I've noticed that when you think or worry about it, it won't happen. When you direct your emotional attention to something else then it happens. I remember back then when we tried to have our first baby. From the year we started till the year we had our first child, it took 4 years. Doctor kept saying that it will happen as everything is normal. At one point we were told to just go on a holiday. So, we planned a vacation away; somewhere relaxing & nice. The next thing we knew, I was pregnant. We ended up not going on that trip as I started to feel very sick (morning sickness etc). So, just the thought & all emotions focused on a holiday away to a nice place... and BINGO.
