Katie and Allison feel the pressure now that Katie's days of health insurance are numbered. Embryologist Alease Daniel Barnes explains IVF (in-vitro fertilization) as we start to consider our options.

You can find Alease on TikTok @aleasetheembryologist and Instagram @alease_the_embryologist.

This is No Matter, a story of (in)fertility. This season, we're starting fertility treatments. Listen along as Katie undergoes intrauterine insemination (IUI) at a fertility clinic. Want to know who's carrying? How an LGBTQ+ couple conceives? How we chose a sperm donor? Start with season one (trust me, we'll still be here).
