    S2E16: Faith and Infertility

    In this episode, we talk about struggling to keep your faith (whatever that may look like) when battling infertility. **Trigger Warning: We do discuss pregnancy a little towards the end of this episode. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you for listening to our podcast! I hope that by talking about what we’ve been though, others who may be struggling with infertility know they are not alone. Whether you're interested in our journey or you're seeking information to begin your own, I hope this podcast is both informative and entertaining! If you are looking for infertility support or advice, visit www.theinfertilitea.com. IG: @operationbabybump YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/operationbabybump  ---------------------------------------------------------------- About Me: I met my husband in 2009, we married in 2010, and we've been a couple of parental wannabes ever since. Years of trying to conceive have brought confusion, frustration, sadness, bitterness, and heartache. We've gone through multiple failed fertility treatments over the years, including an IUI and three rounds of IVF, multiple canceled cycles and seven losses before seeking out an expert in reproductive immunology to help solve the riddle that was our infertility. After an extensive panel of blood work, Dr. Braverman suspected I had endometriosis, which was confirmed by a laparoscopy in January of 2019. One month later, to our shock, we were pregnant naturally! We pray that our story brings you hope that someday you, too, will achieve your dream!
