Messy Motherhood

36: Understanding IUI: What It Looks Like and How to Support Someone Going Through It


Listen Later

Welcome back to another episode of Messy Motherhood! We've been digging into the IVF world a lot lately, but in this week's episode we're going to take a small pivot to help cater our care to the IUI community.


My husband, Alex, and I went through five IUI procedures at the start of our journey and I remember feeling so utterly lost and alone. We didn't know anyone else who was navigating the murky waters of infertility and as our doctor talked about different options, we literally felt like she was speaking another language.


If any of this resonates with you so far, then this episode is for you! Whether you're just now starting your journey with infertility or you know someone who is going through it, this episode is here to give you a full breakdown so you can better understand this aspect of the infertility world. I share our own personal experience followed by a bunch of tips and tricks to help you get through it and we end by talking about the best support for an IUI Warrior.


Our experience with IUIs is a tender and challenging part of our journey. There are so many things I wish I would've known before stepping into this world and that's a big reason for today's episode.


I hope this blesses you wherever you are in your journey and helps you to know that you're not alone!
