This is such a great episode. It's hard not to fall in love with Bachelor alum Sarah Herron, who has such a huge heart, and who opens up to Ali about her fertility journey, from what she knew (and didn't know) about sex education to where they are today. Sarah talks about meeting her husband and deciding they wanted to build a family together; why she had a feeling she would have fertility issues; being diagnosed with diminished ovarian reserve; being told they needed to do IVF; getting pregnant, and the devastating loss of their baby son, Oliver. Sarah is very candid about grieving the loss of their son, navigating that grief, and where they are today. 

TOPICS COVERED IN THIS EPISODE:

Sex education; miscarriage; IVF: diminished ovarian reserve; egg retrieval; egg transfer; birth control; financial issues; IVF pregnancy; the loss of their son, Oliver; navigating grief; genetic testing
