We make it clear that sometimes infertility is not a small inconvenience like some of the films try to make it look and we discuss the good old classics stories that respect the complexity o...

Ep.05 - Very SuperstIVFious!
Stevie Wonder says it ain't the way, but when you believe in things you don't understand, we are dealing with Superstition! Let’s talk about what the infertile community does in order to increase chances of successful implantations. Are these irrational, unscientific, or supernatural forces? We don’t know and we don’t care, all we know is that we are going to them all! Tune in...Did somebody say Wonder?

Ep.04 - Now I Know My IVFs
Not much to report, so we will educate! In this episode we go through some of the most used acronyms in the infertility community. That way as part of the support system you can more easily understand the lingo used in articles, chatrooms, blogs, and such. We recommend another movie that deals with infertility and give you some resources to learn more.

Great work
Great work you two, continued blessings along your journey.
A powerful lesson on empathy and human decency
This podcast is an honest account of a wonderfully funny and witty couple navigating the process of IVF treatment, while educating their loved ones in the process. I find their direct, yet lighthearted approach to sharing stories and examples enlightening. I highly recommend anyone to listen who is going through these struggles, has a loved one who is, or just wants to better educate themselves around the stigmas associated with infertility and IVF treatment. Well done!
Fantastic podcast
The podcast is great. It is really informative. Infertility is an issue that so many people deal with on a regular basis and can be uncomfortable to talk about.
This podcast educated the listener on the issues around infertility. It is super helpful in how to talk to friends/family dealing with infertility and teaching me to be sensitive to them. I am sure it is also really helpful to those dealing with infertility and makes them realize they are not alone.
Not only that, but it does a great job at dealing with this sensitive topic while also being funny!
