Infertile Af

On this episode, Ali talks to her friend and InCircle Fertility co-founder Sophie about navigating the "maze" of infertility. Sophie explains how her struggle with anorexia in her 20s may have played a role in her ability to have a baby, how she didn't hear a heartbeat at her first baby's second ultrasound, that "slow motion, underwater feeling" when the ultrasound tech's face drops, how the loss of embryos was as hard as her miscarriages, and her two D&Cs. Sophie also gets into her endometrial function test, a hysteroscopy that was supposed to happen but never did, how unsexy sex is when you're trying to conceive, and the pressures and complications of secondary infertility. TOPICS COVERED IN THIS EPISODE: Anorexia and Eating DisordersRelationship Issues and Unsexy SexEmbryo LossMiscarriage and D&CsEndometrial Function TestHysteroscopySecondary InfertilityInfertility and Mental HealthFertility CoachingThe Importance of Finding CommunityEPISODE SPONSORS: FERTILITY RALLY
