When you have a child and are ready to have another, secondary infertility can be confusing and devastating. Baby or Bust host and reproductive endocrinologist Dr. Lora Shahine meets with Alison Prato, a journalist, podcaster, and co-founder of Fertility Rally, to discuss the misconceptions and experiences of secondary infertility.

Alison got pregnant with her first child at 34 without reproductive assistance, and she never expected to have struggles getting pregnant with her second. After experiencing multiple pregnancy losses, she was diagnosed with secondary infertility, which changed her life forever. This episode explores the pressure of creating a sibling, grief about changed family plans, assumptions about fertility, and recommendations for advocating for your care.
