Sometimes things have to go horribly wrong in order to go right.
Kelly Brook suffered a miscarriage last May, but ultimately learned an important lesson as a result— namely, that her lifestyle needed a major readjustment.
"Before I fell pregnant, I'd been living the life of a 22-year-old— going to clubs, working hard and flying to a different country every two weeks," says the actress. "When I first fell pregnant, I still thought I could run around and do whatever I wanted, but my body let me know that wasn't the case. When I miscarried, I was devastated."
Brook says it was a case of just trying to do too much.
"It was the hardest lesson but, ultimately, a good one," she says. "I'd been running on adrenalin believing I was invincible - like so many of us do. Since the miscarriage, I've changed my life dramatically."
The actress/model is now working less, eating healthier and exercising more. She wants to make sure that when the time comes for another pregnancy, she's able to handle it.
"I don't want to leave it much longer before having children," she says. "And if I was to fall pregnant now, I'd feel ready."
