A Raw, Honest Story About IVF, Surrogacy, & Having A Rainbow Baby The Liz Moody Podcast
-
- Self-Improvement
Author Phoebe Lapine shares her conception story in this Pros & Cons Of Having Kids episode, from experiencing multiple miscarriages, to working with a reproductive immunologist, to conceiving through IVF & surrogacy.
As a warning, we do discuss miscarriage in this episode, so if that’s a sensitive or triggering topic for you at this time, it may be best to sit this episode out. If that applies to you, I love you and I’ll see you on Wednesday.
The emotional weight of Phoebe’s first miscarriage, and how that informed the following three she experienced
What a reproductive immunologist is & the role they played in Phoebe’s conception journey
Phoebe’s full toolkit to keep herself physically & mentally healthy during such a difficult time
The important role that carbs play in stabilizing your hormones AND what to look for to find the most easily-digestible carbs in the grocery store
Exactly how much surrogacy costs & what you can expect an agency to do for you
How IVF hormone injections REALLY impact your health and body
A frank conversation about the ethical implications of surrogacy
How to best support a friend experiencing pregnancy loss–and what NOT to say
The surprising upsides and downsides of having a baby by surrogacy
And so much more
