Description

Lindsay Fischer is the best-selling author of "The House on Sunset" and "The Two Week Wait Challenge," and today, she's telling Ali her entire infertility story. Included: How trauma therapy helped her heal from an abusive relationship, the importance of self-care, and what happened when her husband did an at-home semen analysis. Lindsay also talks about IUIs, her horrible experience with Clomid, a retrieval that went horribly wrong, and the anxiety she felt—and the constant dehydration she suffered—when she finally did become pregnant with her twins.EPISODE SPONSORS:FERTILITY RALLY www.fertilityrally.com ( http://www.fertilityrally.com/ ) and @fertilityrally, offers24/7 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.
