“My husband and I started working with Michelle in 2012 shortly after we got married. We had learned of the Creighton model through our Pre-Cana weekend, and our eyes were immediately opened. We were so ignorant before that point and weren’t even aware that this existed! We really appreciated that this method of Natural Family Planning was scientifically based and church adopted.
We wanted something that aligned with our faith but that also worked! The information that has been gained is priceless. We now know more about my body and ovulation cycle. Michelle is so easy to work with, very knowledgeable and helpful! My husband and I appreciate meeting with her throughout the year and learning from her so that we can make the best decisions possible for our family planning, as
well as for my healthcare. I am so grateful to have been introduced to this NFP method and very grateful to be working with such a wonderful instructor.” – Kelly Z
“Dan and I found out about the Creighton Model and NaProTECHNOLOGY a few years into our marriage. We had been facing infertility with little answers or options provided to us that fell within our beliefs and the teachings of the Church. At the time, we were pursuing adoption but wanted to continue to seek answers regarding out infertility. Within just a few meetings with Michelle, I felt like we were already discovering more than we had over the previous year of tests and doctor’s visits. We also began working with a NaPro doctor, who met us with great compassion and was just as eager as we were to seek out answers that we just weren’t being given elsewhere. What was once “you will likely never conceive” became “let’s figure this out”. In the world of infertility, people are often met with one option, to move forward with procedures to put a band-aid on the problem, procedures that never would have given us a viable pregnancy without the solutions NaPro provided. We had finally found a team of individuals willing to take the time to dig a little deeper through hormone testing specific to MY cycle, conducting an ovulation series, and getting the full picture with an exploratory laparoscopic procedure. When finally provided with a full picture of what was going on, my doctor was persistent in trying a variety of treatment options until we found one that worked!
We are now blessed with three great boys, Nathan, adopted in 2013, Jude, born in 2016, and Luke, born in 2019. I have had two healthy pregnancies, something I wasn’t sure would ever happen. My NaPro doctors have supported and monitored me long distance through both to ensure healthy pregnancies. Michelle has been there to guide me throughout the entire journey and has rejoiced with me upon each addition to our family. Michelle has carefullly walked me through postpartum charting and all the unique confusion that returned fertility after pregnancy can bring. Our family is so blessed to have found Michelle and our great team of NaPro trained doctors.” -Lisa & Dan
“We began using the FertilityCare System following the birth of our first child to navigate the challenging cycle pattern I was experiencing with breast feeding. Though we came into the program with background knowledge in symptom-thermal, we were amazed at the science supporting this system and the expertise Michelle offered. The design of the follow-ups allowed us to not only gain important insight into our reproductive health, but also taught us how to monitor for this independently.
Additionally, Michelle fostered an appreciation for our fertility, which was quite the change from the culture’s approach to which we’re constantly exposed. We found that our relationship grew more communicative as well as increasingly more mutually respectful as we navigated learning this method of charting. Michelle’s warm, inviting approach made learning easy (despite a difficult season for charting!) and we had the utmost confidence in her guidance.
Michelle was always available to answer any questions and we could sense that she genuinely cared about us as people. When we set out to learn this method, we thought we were simply going to learn how to space our children, but what we found that we received in return was much more.” – Eric and Kate
“We have loved using the Creighton Model of natural family planning in our marriage. With Michelle’s help, we were confidently reading signs of fertility so we could make informed choices in our intimate life. Some of the benefits were: Eileen learned more about her body, using the Creighton model created healthy rhythms for intimacy, it built anticipation and excitement, we both had an increased respect for our body’s power and design, and we learned to care for each other in a more holistic manner.
Through using this method, we learned that great sex takes place in the context of a relationship that understands and respects the other and our God-given potential. We used the Creighton Model for two years to (successfully) avoid becoming pregnant. As a result of our knowledge that Creighton gave us, we chose what day we wanted to become pregnant, and it worked! We just gave birth to our first little boy, and look forward to working with Michelle in the next stage of our life! Thank you! “ – Eileen and Tyler
” We use the Creighton Model because it is a natural, drug-free method that requires the time and commitment of both the wife and the husband. It is also very budget-friendly! Our marriage has benefitted from the Creighton Model because it has taught us new skills and has given us a deeper understanding of what love and trust in God means.” – Kevin and Adriana
