Listen Later

096.  On episode 96, we have Allison on to share her pregnancy journey at 43. Growing up, Allison was always babysitting and spent summers being a camp counselor. She spent lots of time around children, but being a mom wasn’t an obvious choice for her. She had friends that either couldn’t wait to be a mom or never wanted to be a mom, but she didn’t feel like she fit on either side. She’s been with her husband for 15 years who has two children who she is very close with. She loves to travel and wasn’t sure motherhood was for her. When she turned 40, she married the same year and starting really thinking about having a baby. Find out why she went straight to IVF to gender select a girl, her five egg retrievals that led to her journey to motherhood.
