Infertile Af

Sonia Iwanek-Chesley is a proud donor egg mama to Taya, her sweet daughter who was born in January 2023. She is also one of Ali's dearest friends, after Sonia joined the Fertility Rally fam and became one of their support group leaders. Today, Sonia tells Ali all of the details of her family building journey, including meeting her husband, doing several IUIs, a chemical pregnancy, a miscarriage, and what happened when they decided to shift to donor eggs. Sonia talks about how they chose a donor (and then another one) -- and why it was important to include her bonus kids; about finally getting pregnant; and all about her severe preeclampsia and Taya's early birth, leading to a long and traumatic NICU stay.
