Insurance and infertility are two words that rarely bring comfort, but understanding how to navigate your coverage can change everything about your experience.

In this episode of Motherhood Intended, Jacqueline shares her best guidance for reading your policy, asking smart questions, and knowing your rights when it comes to fertility care. She explains what “infertility coverage” really means, how to check if your clinic is in-network, and why employer fertility benefit programs could be a game changer. You’ll also learn how to have honest money talks with your partner so financial stress doesn’t take over your journey.

This episode is equal parts practical and heartfelt. Jacqueline reminds listeners that while fertility insurance can feel overwhelming, you are more capable than you think. With preparation, persistence, and a little advocacy, you can find clarity, save money, and feel more in control of your path to motherhood.
