Celine Dion's tips helped Mariah Carey get pregnant
Mariah Carey tried acupuncture to help her get pregnant after she heard Celine Dion rave about the treatment. Not only did it help Carey get pregnant, but it also helped her battle stress, reports the Toronto Sun. Carey suffered a miscarriage in 2008. Since then, she's been searching for various fertility methods and looking for advice on the matter.
Carey tells Access Hollywood, "Celine was talking about acupuncture. I used to get acupuncture, and I had never thought (of it) with regards to the trying to conceive situation. I was (getting acupuncture), like, once a day at least. It was on a schedule, everything. For the first time in my life, I spent time in one place."
Carey feels that the treatment helped her get pregnant and battle the stress she had trying to conceive. The newly pregnant singer says, "People who know me would be like, 'You scheduled acupuncture at a certain time every day? You stayed in one place?'"
She also tried hormone treatments to increase her chances of getting pregnant. "I put my body through like a whole kind of cleansing kind of situation and prepared. I had to be on progesterone. I did end up being on progesterone like every month to go through the cycles."
Her fertility methods caused her to gain weight, which put the media on high alert. Headlines were everywhere reporting that the singer was pregnant before Carey even knew she was pregnant. Carey says, "It also bloats you, it also puts on weight. So then, everybody was like, 'Oh, the weight gain, she’s definitely pregnant!'" (The Celebrity Cafe)
