Cait’s fertility journey is long, layered, and deeply honest.
In this episode of Before the BFP, Cait shares what it was like to spend nearly a decade trying to grow her family. After years of irregular cycles, medicated rounds, and a devastating false positive pregnancy test, Cait and her husband moved into IVF. What followed was four retrievals in one year, repeated disappointment, genetic testing that changed everything, endometriosis surgery, hormone suppression, and the emotional weight of being told again and again that no embryos had made it.
Cait opens up about the mental, physical, and financial toll of infertility, including spending nearly $100,000 out of pocket, navigating strained family relationships, and choosing to share her journey publicly when silence felt heavier than honesty. She also talks candidly about pregnancy after infertility, postpartum anxiety and depression, and the reality that becoming a mother does not automatically erase the trauma of everything it took to get there.
After years of heartbreak, Cait and her husband transferred the single viable embryo they had left. That embryo became their son, Zion.
This conversation is for anyone who has felt broken by fertility treatment, overwhelmed by repeated loss, or unsure who they are becoming on the other side of infertility.
