McKensie shared with us the multiple rounds of IVF cycles that brought her her daughter, Lennox, and her current pregnancy. McKensie shares her diagnosis of stage four endometriosis and we discuss what it's like to go through secondary infertility. For McKensie, conceiving her second child was a much longer journey than her first. She speaks on wanting to quit after back to back failed transfers but how ultimately she is so grateful she kept going. Connect with McKensie on her IG: @mackkanos.
