At times, intercourse for the purpose of conceiving can be stressful, isn’t effective, or just isn’t an option for someone trying to become pregnant.  In the past, difficulties getting pregnant the “natural” way meant trips to the doctor’s office not only to figure out what might be interfering with fertilization, but also to try intrauterine inseminations (IUI) to achieve a pregnancy.  Times have changed! Now, at-home insemination is an option for many — allowing people to bypass the time, expense, discomfort, and other potential hurdles of in-clinic IUI or of trying to time intercourse with ovulation.  On this episode of Baby or Bust, Dr. Lora Shahine is talking all about at-home inseminations with Mauren Brown, founder of Mosie Baby. The Mosie Baby Kit for At-Home Insemination is the first FDA-cleared insemination syringe kit, and it has helped over 100,000 people access a fertility option that can take place in the comfort of their own home.  Dr. Shahine and Maureen discuss how Mosie Baby came about, how the syringe is designed, who might benefit from this option, and the future of at-home insemination.  You can learn more at the Mosie Baby website and by watching Dr. Shahine’s YouTube video on at-home inseminations.  In this episode you’ll hear: [1:02] Meet Maureen Brown – founder of Mosie Baby How Mosie Baby came about Frank, Maureen’s son is the first Mosie Baby [5:42] Mosie Baby vs. IUI in the clinic  [8:03] The Mosie Baby design [10:20] FDA clearance of Mosie Baby [15:10] Is Mosie Baby right for you?
