Today, Jacqueline, who has always wanted to tell her story on a fertility podcast, is checking that goal off her list. She starts by telling Ali about her husband's battle with kidney cancer, and the very interesting, very lucky way his cancer was discovered. Then she explains how male factor infertility came into play (in the form of low sperm count), what happened when she went through IVF, the extreme anxiety of pregnancy after IVF, and, after having two babies, the moral dilemma of having more embryos on ice. 

TOPICS COVERED IN THIS EPISODE:

Infertility; infertility trauma; IVF; IUI; hyperstimulation; kidney cancer; male factor infertility; low sperm count; normalizing the infertility conversation; traumatic pregnancy; the anxiety of pregnancy after infertility; self-care; frozen embryos.
