- Mental Health
Today, Ali talks to Claire, who reached out via email, about her roller coaster infertility journey. Included: Four IUIs, IVF, how it all took a toll on her marriage (but also made them stronger), her fresh embryo transfer, her diagnosis of Stage 3 Endometriosis, how her bible study helped her get through it all, and what her husband said when her surgeon said to him, "Claire’s tubes look terrible. They are tortuous. Do you want me to remove them?” We also talk about her miracle pregnancy, and how the PTSD of pregnancy after infertility is very, very real.
