Let's run you through all the the things WE wish we'd known before we started IVF. Some of these we've been told by you lovely lot, and some we've had to learn for ourselves, but we'd love it if we could make your experience just a little bit easier by sharing them with the world!
From where to put your pessaries, to psyching yourself up for two wanks in the space of an hour, we're telling all. We also talk you through a few old wives tales, all of which we did an COULD HAVE played a part in our successful embryo transfer....

Episode 14 - Things We Wish We'd Known Before Starting IVF

Welcome to our podcast family! 
We are Tristan and Miranda, and this is our BRAND NEW podcast - Test Tube Baby. 
Join us on our 'IVF Journey' as we chat through the highs and lows of trying to get pregnant. 1 in 7 couples struggle with infertility and we are that one. In true Tristan and Miranda style there’ll be a whole lot of tangents, more than one euphemism and inevitably we will expose and embarrass ourselves.&nbsp;

Today it's all about the fourth trimester... I know what you're thinking, tri means three. Well get back in your box you pedantic fool you. Hear all about our experiences of the 12 weeks following Penny's birth. For once, we take things seriously and share our own individual journeys into parenthood, where things aren't always sunshine and rainbows. 
Mastitis, sinusitis and sleeplessness? One of these three involved Tristan fondling Miranda's boobs on doctor's orders and no, Tristan isn't the doctor. 
We also try a new "game" - we laughed although we're not sure you will... "Story Time" debuts this week, let us know what you think!

Episode 3 - The Aftermath

So here it is. From start to finish. Hear our birth story, from how and when Miranda's waters (sort of) broke, the induction, infection, epidural that followed, all the way through to the moment Penny came into the world. We've even given you a little clip of the moment it happened, tissues at the ready guys.
Overall we feel so lucky our birth story was a happy one, filled with love, support and incredible midwives. Naturally, in true Tristan and Miranda style, we're speaking very candidly so just be aware of that if you are currently pregnant and due to give birth soon. It's raw, it's real and it's magical.

Episode 2 - Our Birth Story

Yes, it's really happening. WE ARE BACK! Test Tube Baby returns for a second season packed with more TMI, oversharing and euphemisms than you can shake an ultrasound probe at.
Today, we ease you into a new season updating you on all that's happened since we last spoke. For those of you wondering, we HAVE had a baby so we tell you a little bit about her, and also run through several other major life events we foolishly crammed into our lives having just had a child.
Thank you so much for coming back to us for season 2, it really does mean the world to us! Thanks for being patient too... we know you've been waiting a while for this but trust us - it'll be worth it!

Episode 1 - We Back, Baby

So we've recorded this one a little bit ahead of time, as we're highly likely to be A) not thinking about podcasting at 40 weeks pregnant. B) IN LABOUR. or C) WITH A NEWBORN. With Christmas just around the corner, we're going to talk through some gift ideas for anyone who is going through IVF or is pregnant / giving birth etc etc etc. Head over to our Instagram to see if we've had a baby yet!!
