The TTC journey after a vasectomy reversal can feel overwhelming, isolating, and emotionally exhausting—especially when it starts to put strain on your marriage. You and your spouse want the same thing, but the stress of tracking cycles, dealing with setbacks, and waiting for your miracle baby can make you feel like you're drifting apart.
But what if this season of waiting could actually bring you closer together instead of pulling you apart?
In today’s episode, I’m joined by Miranda Bayard-Clark, couples therapist, relationship consultant, and host of the Love After Lullabies podcast. With over 13 years of experience, Miranda specializes in helping couples navigate the emotional and relational shifts that come with trying to conceive, pregnancy, and parenthood.
Inside This Episode, We Cover:
🔹 How TTC stress impacts your marriage (and what to do about it)
🔹 Small, daily habits to help you and your spouse stay connected—even when disappointment hits
🔹 Why intimacy can start to feel like a chore (and how to bring back emotional connection outside of your fertile window)
🔹 What to do when your partner isn’t as ‘all-in’ as you are with lifestyle changes, tracking, or treatment decisions
🔹 How to prepare your relationship for a new baby—so you don’t wake up months later feeling like roommates
If TTC has started to take over your relationship, you’re struggling with resentment over lifestyle changes, or you feel like you and your spouse are drifting apart under the weight of stress and disappointment, this episode is for you. Whether you already have kids or are trying to conceive your first together, we’re covering practical ways to protect your marriage, reconnect as a couple, and create a foundation that will last long after your baby arrives.
