Description

Abbe Feder is an actress, an infertility advocate, creator of the podcast "Maculate Conception," and co-founder of InCircle Fertility (@incirclefertility), which provides coaching, education, support and guidance to anyone navigating the shitshow of infertility. Today, Ali is talking to her amazing friend about her years-long journey, including multiple IUIs, multiple unsuccessful transfers, two pregnancy losses, a surrogate who changed her mind, PTSD, switching doctors, heartbreak after heartbreak, and so much more. Abbe also recalls the very difficult decision she and her husband made to reduce her pregnancy when she was pregnant with triplets, and how that third baby became her "angel baby," who brought them their healthy twins. EPISODE SPONSORS:FERTILITY RALLY @fertilityrally offering 24/7 Community, Content and Curated Events. Give yourself or a fellow infertility warrior the gift of support while navigating your journey.

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.
