Description

On this episode, Ali talks to fellow infertility warrior Bre, about her "roller coaster" infertility ride. Bre talks about what happened when her partner, who is 21 years older than her, had a reverse vasectomy. She also talks about how infertility affected her relationship, how she and her husband were "looked at differently every step of the way" trying to have their own child, and how the judgement "became almost too much to bear." She also talks about finally having her son, and why she has no problem speaking to women sometimes on the street about her miracle baby.TOPICS COVERED IN THIS EPISODE:Infertility; medicated cycles; vasectomy; vasectomy reversal; relationship issues; the anxiety of pregnancy after infertility. EPISODE SPONSORS:MIRAIf you’re trying to conceive, listen up: According to Mira, you can get pregnant faster by tracking your ovulation and hormones using the Mira Fertility tracker.

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.
