Nederlands supermodel Romee Strijd (24) is in verwachting! Romee en haar grote liefde Laurens van Leeuwen (28) delen het blije nieuws op Instagram. Het is het eerste kindje voor het stel dat al 10 jaar samen is. Helaas werd Romee niet heel gemakkelijk zwanger. Zo werd ze door voortdurende stress en een overbelast lichaam 7 jaar niet ongesteld. Dit is zoals Romee in onderstaande post beschrijft een bepaald type PCOS waar ze gelukkig wat aan kon doen. Door minder hard te trainen, beter te eten en het wat rustiger aan te doen kwam Romee’s lichaam uit deze constante stressmodus en kreeg ze haar menstruatie in november afgelopen jaar weer terug. Wat resulteert in dit geweldige babynieuws! We willen het stel natuurlijk van harte feliciteren met hun zwangerschap!

“WE’RE HAVING A BABY 💗

2 years ago I got diagnosed with PCOS after not getting my period for 7 years. I was devastated because being a mom and starting a family with @laurensvleeuwen is my biggest dream.. I was so scared that I would never be able to because I got told it was harder to get babies in a natural way.. I started to research PCOS and came to the conclusion that mine was not the typical pcos.. Mine was because of my body being in fight or flight mode.. which means my body was under constant stress. I never felt mentally super stressed so it was hard te understand this, but my life consisted of travelling all the time (no biorhythm), working out every day, eating super clean (restricting foods). I think I pressured my body to much, and honestly every body is so different but I think my weight was not good for my body to function properly and couldn’t handle the constant traveling.

This was the point where I started to research natural healing for PCOS and came to the conclusion that I should do way less high intensity training, don’t restrict foods, be nice to myself, and take breaks when needed. I also tried some natural supplements, acupuncture and we got a place back in the Netherlands as well, so we could spend more time with Family (since im such a family person). I’m so happy and grateful to say that I got my period back last november AND that WE’RE SOON A FAMILY OF THREE ❤ ❤❤❤ & to the women trying to conceive, believe in yourself and be nice for yourself and your body and don’t let those thoughts get to you to much 😚”
