by Alison Prato
<p>In this unfiltered podcast about infertility, journalist and mom-of-two Ali Prato, who went through secondary infertility and IVF herself, talks to women—and some men—about the messy, frustrating, painful, heartbreaking, absurd and sometimes humorous journey to have a baby. Or in some cases, to not have a baby. Each episode tells a different story about family building, getting real about miscarriages, egg freezing, sperm and egg donation, IUIs, endometriosis, male factor infertility, adoption, surrogacy, genetic testing, single parenting by choice, LGBTQ+ fertility, living childless not by choice, depression, relationship issues, money issues, jealousy, PTSD, and so much more. Ali covers all of the outcomes in this safe, non-judgement zone: the happy endings, the soul-crushingly sad ones, and the ones still in limbo.</p>

<p>Today, Ali is talking to Megan Day, who shares her very real and honest story about infertility, including losing her son when she was 19 weeks pregnant. "It was called a miscarriage," she says. She explains what happened after that, including five excruciating surgeries and a lot of unanswered questions. Megan talks about the complications of RPOC (Retained Products of Conception), when she and her husband decided to pivot to surrogacy; finding a gestational carrier, and finally, awaiting the arrival of their healthy baby via GC, due any day now. </p><p><br></p><p><u>TOPICS COVERED IN THIS EPISODE: </u></p><p>Infertility; IVF; IUIs; missed miscarriage; pregnancy loss; egg retrieval; embryo transfer; gestational carrier; surrogacy journey; surrogacy miscarriage; RPOC; surgery</p><p><br></p><p><u>EPISODE SPONSORS:</u></p><p><strong>WORK OF ART</strong></p><p>Ali's Children's Book about IVF and Assisted Reproductive Technology</p><p><a href="https://www.infertileafgroup.com/books" rel="nofollow">https://www.infertileafgroup.com/books</a></p><p>Do not miss Ali's children’s book about IVF!
