Episode 15 is a warrior story and our guest is Monica of waitingforbabywunder

Monica is a warrior is so many ways, but today we talk about her challenges on her IVF journey.  Monica has some anatomic variations that make carrying a pregnancy difficult, but add on to that infertility and this makes for a very unique journey.

This episode is a longer episode because we just had a great time chatting and she was just so open about her experiences and feelings in an effort to help us all.  Like luckybabylam, she shares with us her resources and I'm so grateful for this.  What I LOVE about Monica is that she is so genuine, smart, kind, thoughtful, and absolutely hysterical.  She was a joy to be around and just a lovely human.

A couple of things I want to mention.  As always, we’re not physicians and the information provided today is for educational and informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice.  Make sure that you consult with your own fertility doctor before choosing any medical therapies that may affect your fertility.  Unfortunately, every person’s situation is unique and it is vital that you discuss your personal situation with your own fertility doctor to decide what is the best course of action for you.  Please also make sure that you are taking your medications as prescribed by your physician..

Heads up - there is explicit language on this episode, so just be mindful where you’re playing this.

I hope you enjoy it!  Drop a 5 star review and a written review if you loved it!  I would be so grateful.  Get comfy guys, this one is good.
