About A Little Miss Conception - Infertility Awareness
A podcast about the trials and tribulations of trying to conceive, and the struggles to start, or complete our families. Host, Kristy Saunders, speaks with real women, and men, who are affected by infertility. Some who have been able to achieve their dream of becoming parents, and also some who have not. It is an honest, warm and respectful space to share and learn.
Each week we hear from either professionals in the fertility space, or real people, like you and me, who are sharing their stories, in the hopes that we can help others who are on this journey.
There will be laughs, there will be tears, and hopefully a lot of useful information. Happy listening!
Ep. 22 - Bianca's Story - Donor Embryo's (International)
After a little hiatus, we are back, and what an episode we have for you this week.
Our guest this week is the gorgeous Bianca. Like so many women in the infertility trenches, after a certain point in time, and no success, things felt hopeless.
She and her husband were told that there wasn't much more that they could do.... but giving up is just not in their DNA. So, when faced with a future that they just couldn't make peace with, they started their own investigations into Donor Embryo's.
Bianca tells her story with such grace and pride, and so she should. They ended up using a clinic overseas and have such incredibly positive feedback to give.
For anyone who may be at a cross roads, and feels there is nowhere else to turn, this episode is worth the listen. Bianca is also happy to speak to anyone who may have questions.
No Dr Ray this week :( but he will be back next week!

Ep. 21 - Louis & Kristen's Story - Stillbirth - For Mars, who was born sleeping.
TRIGGER WARNING: This episode discusses the loss of a child, as well as a successful pregnancy outcome.
On this weeks episode we meet the wonderful Louis, as he shares a truly heart breaking story.
He and his wife Kristen experienced every parents worst nightmare, the loss of their beautiful son Mars, at full term.
Whilst their story is difficult to listen to, it truly is incredible how he and Kristen have navigated their way through this experience and come out the other side stronger and closer than ever. Their courage, strength and outlook on things is truly inspiring and I am so honoured to have been able to hold space for him to be able to share their family's journey.
Forgive me for the sniffling and inability to string a sentence together.. I was truly in awe of Louis and Kristen.
No Dr Ray this week, but he will be back next week x

Ep. 20 - Kate's Story - Early Menopause/Premature Ovarian Failure
TRIGGER WARNING - THIS EPISODE DISCUSSED SUCCESSFUL PREGNANCY OUTCOMES
On today's episode we meet the lovely Kate. At the young age of 25, she was told that she was going into early menopause, that she had a very low ovarian reserve, and that her chances of parenthood were, to be honest, incredibly slim.
She candidly discusses how this affected her, as well as the people around her. She was lucky to have incredible support and she and her partner Jack (shout out to jack tbh) are seriously couple goals.
Her diagnosis meant she had to navigate something she never expected, before she was truly ready for it. Her attitude is refreshing to say the least and while our chat is really lighthearted, it is clear that this was an incredibly difficult time in her life.
She appreciates how blessed she is to have successfully gone on to have two children, but wants to bring awareness to the fact that young women, can... and do, experience early menopause.
This week Dr Ray is back to discuss if the flu or a cold can influence an embryo transfer :)
