Infertile Af

Get ready for an amazing conversation with Kellie Gerardi, an astronaut, researcher, mom, and space industry sensation who made history when she flew as a payload specialist on the Galactic 05 research mission in 2023. "I had two dreams growing up: I was fascinated with space, and I always pictured myself having a family," Kellie says. Today, Ali and Kellie talk about how she launched her career, and also about the difficult infertility journey she is navigating currently. Kellie shares the journey to having her daughter, Delta, who is now 7, and what happened when she started to try for baby number two. She talks about a number of pregnancy losses, including a devastating second trimester loss, and when they made the decision to do IVF. Kellie is in the midst of her journey, about to do an embryo transfer, and we are wishing her nothing but the best. For more, follow her on IG @kelliegerardi TOPICS COVERED IN THIS EPISODE: Infertility; secondary infertility; pregnancy; pregnancy loss; miscarriage; IV
