Description

On today's episode, Ali is talking to her hilarious friend Millie Brooks, an actress, an infertility warrior and advocate, and an all around stellar human. Millie talks about meeting her husband, what happened when they started to try to have kids, how an "unexplained infertility" diagnosis rocked their world, and how switching doctors and finding Dr. Aimeee, "The Egg Whisperer" changed the course of their treatment and their lives. Currently pregnant with their first child through IVF, Millie talks about the anxiety that comes along with pregnancy after infertility, how many more embryos they have on ice, and how the infertility community has helped her get through some of her lowest times. EPISODE SPONSOR: Fertility Rally, @fertilityrally, offering 24/7 Community, Content and Curated Events. Give yourself or a fellow infertility warrior the gift of support now at fertilityrally.com/join-nowSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/infertile-af/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

In this unfiltered podcast about infertility, Brooklyn-based journalist and mom-of-two Ali Prato, who went through secondary infertility and IVF herself, talks to women—and some men—about the messy, frustrating, painful, heartbreaking, absurd and sometimes hilarious journey to have a baby. Or in some cases, to not have a baby. Each episode tells a different story about family building, getting real about miscarriages, egg freezing, sperm and egg donation, IUIs, endometriosis, male factor infertility, adoption, surrogacy, genetic testing, single parenting by choice, LGBTQ+ fertility, living childless not by choice, depression, relationship issues, money issues, jealousy, PTSD, and so much more. Ali covers all of the outcomes in this safe, non-judgement zone: the happy endings, the soul-crushingly sad ones, and the ones still in limbo.
