What to look for in an IVF doctor, using donor eggs and facing fertility treatments solo

In this episode I talk to Lea Nicole who started fertility treatments on her own, after routine health checks discovered she was likely to have issues conceiving. We discuss: - dating while undergoing fertility treatments - how failed cycles and losing blastocysts needs to be grieved - how a forced break from IVF was the best thing that ever happened - how to choose your IVF doctor (Lea has been to 5 reproductive endocrinologists in her time!) Thank you Lea for sharing what you learned on your journey to conceive your daughter.

How to stay hopeful after 3 miscarriages including an ectopic pregnancy

Earlier this year I spoke to Issy from the UK about her experience with 3 losses including an ectopic pregnancy. She shared how important it is to acknowledge these awful experiences and to let yourself feel all the ugly feelings that come along with them. She also shared what she has found helpful in her healing and how she is holding onto hope despite these devastating losses. Thank you to Issy for being brave enough to share your story. And welcome to the very first episode of my new podcast IN CIRCLE. A podcast that I hope with feel like that comforting and uplifting feeling you get from sitting in circle with other women. Here we'll share stories and lessons about becoming and being a mother. We'll talk about the heartbreak and the joy and all the tricky bits in between.
