098. Amanda is sharing her IVF journey at 45. Amanda met her husband at 25 and married at 30. As a couple they thought about not have children at all. That is, until she was in her early 30's when her husband suggest they have children after he questioned what are they doing this for. She is the oldest of four kids and was a nanny all through college. She was flexible and had her son, spontaneously at 34 after a heartbreaking pregnancy loss. She had a great pregnancy with her first baby. Amanda's husband was ready for a second right away but Amanda wasn't sure. She started a business and time went on. In her early 40's she wondered if she waited too long to have a baby. At 44, she had an epiphany that if she wanted another baby, she better make the decision now. Not wanting to wait, she assumed her only option was IVF, and made consultation appointments with a few clinics in North Texas. Find out how her IVF journey went, her pregnancy, a surprising birth and recovery.
