From: Mrs Caroline Jackson Date: 23/08/2007
I am writing about your fertility statue, and I swear that I am telling the truth! Not long after I got married, we came to Blackpool and I touched your statue and I went on to have 3 children in 3 1/2 years, the 3rd of which was conceived while taking precautions that had worked well before we got married. Anyway, we didnt want any more children after that so my husband had a vasectomy which was completely successful. We came to Blackpool last September and I dont know why, but I felt the urge to touch it again, I think just because I thought "you cant get me now". Now however, I am sitting here 20 weeks pregnant again by my husband who has been to hospital for tests since finding out and it has healed itself! The doctor told us there was only a 1 in 2000 chance of that happening. I just thought I would let you know - I only made the connection last night!

From: Nicola Millerchip Hinckley, Leicestershire Date: 14/08/2007
We came to Ripleys March 2006 complete family of 4, No baby planned. I touched the statue and we are now a family of 5 with a 7 year gap from my youngest! Our son was a surprise! But the best surprise we've ever had!

From: LyndseyC Leyland Date: 10/08/2007

From: Bell Date: 10/05/2007
I already had children but due to illness this bacame impossible, on an anual visit to blackpool i touched the statue and my daughter was born in 2003 with a 13 year age gap with her older brother so it really works.

From: Rhollette Bautista Date: 08/05/2007
I am 33 years old and desperate to get pregnant. I hear of the fertility statue before but I was too young then. Is there a chance that I could touch the fertility statue and hope to get pregnant. Please advise. Thank you!

From: VERONICA Date: 07/05/2007

From: Adam Date: 30/04/2007
I absolutely love Ripley's at Blackpool . The gallaries i enjoyed the most were the haunted graveyard and the pinning stone tunnel at the end. Ripley's is absolutely great!

From: Lainey MacDonald Date: 04/10/2006
my husband and i visited ripley's in febuary 2001. we were with another couple who were trying for a baby and were rubbing the fertility statues belly. i didn't believe in it nor did my husband and i jokingly rubbed her belly as well. a few months later i realised i was pregnant and when given my due date i had concieved the weekend we'd been in blackpool. my friends also had a baby 8months after i had my daughter, Alix who is turning 5 this november and we are bring her to blackpool to celebrate. Lainey, Gbo, Jodi and Alix

From: Debbra Watson Date: 19/06/2006
In March 1999 we visited Ripleys on a wet weekend and loved the exhibits we had been trying for a baby for 3 years with no success and were considering fertility treatment, we saw the staute and even though myself and my husband were both sceptical i rubbed her belly, imagine my suprise at finding out 4 months later that i was 3 months pregnant! Our son Zachary was born on October 13 1999 1 month early by section! We then settled down to family life and started trying for another baby but month after month went by and year after year and nothing so it was off to doctors for tests, we had forgotton all about the statue and so when in blackpool again in July for the dsy, we were passing the Ripleys show again, we saw the statue and looked at each other and just had to try again we filled the book in at reception about our first touch and paid and went in i went through all the exhibits at lightening speed (sorry) and came face to face i immidiately rubbed her belly again and then again for luck, i even said to a teenage girl not to touch unless she wanted a baby! Well my second son arrived safely on 9th March 2006 1 month early by section again! I am now totaly convinced as is my husband that the statue is responsible for our beautiful boys, you point any disbeliver to us and we will convince them! Thank you Ripleys for our sons two rubs and that gave two boys xXx

With love Debbra, Andrew, Zachary and Harley Watson

From: Miss Tracey Lister Date: 18/06/2006

From: Ashley Kirkland Date: 10/03/2006
My boyfriend and i visited ripleys and he dared me to touch the statue. i thought it was all a big joke! i did it and 9 months later had a healthy beautiful baby girl.

From: Carley Lord Date: 10/03/2006
Ripleys is fantastic, aswell as learing so much from it, it is also so much fun. i would tell any1 to visit who wants a fun day out. i will also be re-visiting again very soon to see the re-vamp which im sure will be even more spectacular!!!

From: Richard and Tracey and the bump Date: 23/02/2006
Hi there, just wanted to let you know we had a great time in Blackpool last summer and we loved your attraction. It was full of intersting things, we loved the mirror where you pull faces, and the mechanical fortune tellers. We had been trying for a baby for nearly two years without luck. So when we saw the fertility statue we both give it a rub not expecting much to happen. We are now expecting the birth of our first child in early May. We would like to pass on our thanks to you and your statue. We look forward to coming back soon with our baby.

Wishing you all the best in the future

From: David Date: 07/02/2006
Looking forward to visit.

From: Rachael Date: 07/02/2006

From: H K Date: 02/02/2006
just wondering if the fertility statue worked for the manager of ripleys blackpool, as in the bbc documentary? he and his wife were hoping it would work.
