Get Me Pregnant

How To Know When You Need Help

They say it takes a village to raise a child, but what about before the child exists? When a baby is so deeply longed for but things aren’t turning out as you planned, who can you turn to for support?

This episode is all about sharing the mental load, how to find support, and how to build your village.

We hear from IVF expert Dr Manuela Toledo, and from trans/cis couple Max and Paris who had to cross state lines to get the fertility treatment that was right for them. 

SPECIAL THANKS 

To Paris and Max for sharing their story.

After Moving Across The Country, Max & Paris Found The Perfect Donor For Them

A truth, universally acknowledged by anyone struggling with infertility - is that babies and pregnant people are everywhere, so how do you deal with it?

This episode we speak to expert IVF Counsellor Melissa Stephens, and ask how to navigate emotions like grief, jealousy and envy, and how to set healthy boundaries for yourself.

We also speak to Amy, who after years of trying for a second child with fertility assistance has decided it's time to close the book, and celebrate the family that she has. 

SPECIAL THANKS 

To Amy for coming on the show and sharing her family's story!

“All My Friends Are Pregnant And I’m Struggling”

'Are you pregnant yet?' It's a question so many of us hear, all too often. Sometimes it's from well-meaning strangers and other times it's from loved ones - but anyone going through IVF knows that question stings!

So how do you decide who to tell? And how do you set up health boundaries and expectations? In this episode we speak to expert IVF Counsellor Melissa Stephens about how to navigate these questions. 

We also speak to our special guests Marcela and Rowan, who after 8 months of doing everything by the book decided it was time to seek fertility help. Through initial testing the couple found out that Rowan has a condition that means he is infertile. With the help of IVF they have become a family of three, welcoming a little baby boy, and today they join us to share their story.

SPECIAL THANKS 

To Marcela and Rowan for sharing their story.
