Hello All,
I don't want to offend/scare/worry anyone, just wanted to share xx


I was watching a tv show, 'extreme pregnancy', last night and they had this couple ttc. The lady suffered 7 miscarriages within 21 months, ranging from v.early to 13weeks. The hospital ran all the usual tests and they couldn't find anything wrong.

Finally the couple gave their hair samples to a specialist lab and discovered they had abnormally high levels of lead in their system. They found it was from their hobby of stained glass windows restoration. They did a detox as advised by a nutrionist and six months later they fell pregnant and carried to term. Apparently the body cannot get rid of lead by iteself, it needs vitamins and other things. They managed to have two full pregnancies.

I read up on this and apparently you can get this from old buildings and even tap water.
In case anyone is interested, here is more info

hope some people find this useful x
