Your body is always trying to communicate with you
Three years ago I had a surprise pregnancy that ended in a miscarriage at 6 weeks. My world was completely shaken. I never thought something like that could happen to me (don’t we all?)
When we decided to actually start trying for a baby I quickly realized that everything I knew about fertility was how to prevent pregnancy! I had never been taught how to support fertility and conceive on purpose!
This started a career (a.k.a. obsession) with fertility and nutrition. Now charting my cycle is one of my favorite ways to check in on my health and support my fertility!
Charting my cycle helped me take control of my fertility. It gave me a way to see what my hormones were doing so that I could make better choices.
Everyday Fertility is about more than correctly timing your baby dance to TTC.
It’s about taking charge of your health, your body, and your fertility.
It’s about knowing that your body is always on your side and learning how to work with your hormones (especially when you have a hormonal imbalance like PCOS!)
That’s what it means to practice Everyday Fertility!
What women are saying…
“Charting was very new to me and Mollie was there to help clear up the confusion. She also gave me confidence in using the charting method to plan and prepare for a family on our time and when we were ready, not sooner. :)
Her Everyday Fertility Course has so much GREAT information in there that most women, including myself, didn't know. If you're looking for a beautifully done course to help answer your hormone, cycling, fertility, PCOS questions, this is a great place to start!
Mollie is a very genuine, positive, caring human. She is a wonderful practitioner to work with and made the experience enjoyable and informative."

The Everyday Fertility course will teach you to quickly identify the best day to TTC - simply by spending 15 minutes each day observing your body’s signals.
This course will help you…
Know exactly when you enter your fertile phase
Know which days are best for baby dancing
Know with complete confidence if and when you ovulate
Many ovulation predictor devices don’t work well with hormonal imbalances like PCOS because their algorithms cannot predict what your body is going to do in the future. Charting your fertile signs yourself is the best way to identify your fertile window and confirm if/when you ovulate every single cycle - even if your cycle is super long!
By the end of this course you will…
Feel completely confident in your ability to recognize and interpret your fertile signs
Be connected to your body in a completely new way
Know exactly what your hormones are doing every single day
The course pairs a binge-watchable video series and 4 live Q&A calls so that you don’t just learn how hormones are “supposed” to work - you learn how to interpret what your hormones are actually doing throughout your cycle.
Charting your fertile signs will become a tool to…
Observe and analyze how your food, stress, and exercise impact your hormones
Feel more in control of your fertility and health
Find more ease in the fertility journey by taking the guesswork out of timing intercourse

FAQs
Does charting work for PCOS, endometriosis, or other hormonal imbalances?
Yes. Your body communicates through symptoms and physical changes. Observing these physical changes can give you insight into what your hormones are doing during your cycle. Because hormonal imbalances cause long cycles, short cycles, anovulatory cycles, and many other symptoms, most devices have a difficult time predicting ovulation. Charting your symptoms yourself is the best way to accurately identify what you’re hormones are doing and if/when you ovulate each cycle.
How much time will this course take?
If you watched all 7 lessons at once it would take about 3 hours. You’ll have access to the video lessons forever.
How much time will it take to chart my fertile signs each day?
It takes about 5-10 minutes in the morning to take your basal body temperature and about 30 seconds to observe your cervical fluid each time you use the restroom. All in all, charting is a very simple practice to do everyday and easily becomes a habit.
Will charting help me get pregnant?
Maybe! Correctly timing intercourse around ovulation is a must for conception. Many couples struggle to get pregnant for months simply due to improper timing!
If timing is not your issue, charting can also illuminate hormonal imbalances that may be negatively impacting your fertility. However, charting will not correct these imbalances on it’s own. Your charts will only show you what is happening with your body and it will be up to you to use that information for deeper healing. For example, you may observe that you have a consistently short luteal phase. The chart can reveal this issue and you’ll need to do the research or seek a practitioner who can give you some ideas to lengthen your luteal phase.
I’ve already done some reading and have started charting my cycles. What will I get out of this course?
Awesome! You’ve already taken the first steps! Depending on your experience with charting this may be brand new information or you may already know a lot. If you’re unsure, the easiest way to find out if this course is a good fit is to email mollie@parsleyandpumpkins.com and tell me about your charting experience. If you’re already a pro I’ll let you know that this course isn’t a great fit and I’ll refer you to someone who can help you take it to the next level.
You may still find the Q&A calls helpful. If you’re at all unsure about interpreting your cervical fluid or you’re seeing unusual patterns in your charts, you can bring these questions to a Q&A call for one on one help.
See you in class!
I’m so excited to share this life changing information with you!! Charting has completely changed my relationship with my fertility and I know it will do the same for you!
