By 47, our weekends were for hiking, not diapers. I was planning a trip to France, not another round of night feeds.And then… garlic made me gag. Yoga made me dizzy. And a pregnancy test turned my whole world upside down. Yes—it’s rare. But pregnancy can happen after tubal ligation.It’s called tubal recanalization—when the body forms a new passage over time, allowing fertilization. Most OBs won’t even bring it up unless you ask. I had no clue. Twelve weeks in before I even knew. I cried. I laughed. Then I ordered prenatal vitamins on autopilot. Pregnancy at 47 hit different.More aches, less energy—but this time I had a plan.Here’s what helped me heal after 48:• NAD+ – for brain fog + cellular energy• Magnesium glycinate – for sleep + muscle pain• Iron + B-complex – for rebuilding strength + mood• Pelvic floor therapy – essential at this age• High-protein meals – non-negotiable• Salt baths + gentle daily walks – reset my nervous system• Learning to ask for help – because we don’t get medals for doing it all alone Now I’m a mama of four—with a newborn and two college tours on my calendar.Was it part of the plan? No.But would I change a thing? Not for a second.
