The past two years of my infertility journey have been difficult. I feel the physical and mental weight of all that I have gone through every single day. Sharing my experience as it unfolds has become important to me because it has been especially hard for me to find people who are sharing while they are in the middle of the process as opposed to on the other side of it. That’s one of the main reasons I started this podcast: to share about my experience as it is unfolding rather than after the fact when everything has come to a (hopefully) happy ending.
In today’s episode, I’m sharing the results of our PGT embryo testing, how I’m feeling, and what decisions come next for us in this process.
It’s very hard to talk about this while actively experiencing it, so thank you for listening, and I hope that this podcast is a safe space where you can feel seen and heard while on your own journey.
