IVF Out Loud Introduction
<p>Welcome to my first podcast of IVF Out Loud. I’m Alison. My partner and I are building our family using IFV. My goal with this platform is to share my experience with infertility, the conversations I wish I had known how to have, some of the more comical moments of our 9 year journey and really just create a community. I know that I felt more than a little bit crazy and isolated on over our decade long journey.</p><br><p>I will share stories about our journey and include humor whenever possible. I will not spend any time on injections or medication. When we started this process, I was so frustrated by all the videos and talk around how the hormones and injections. Honestly, for me I felt uneven, unsettled and ‘crazy’ before I even started medication. I felt angry and emotional as the depth of the process unfolded. I wanted to hear stories of people that felt like I did, not someone who was hyperventilating over giving themselves a shot. I’m not minimizing how people feel, but the reality for me was I felt big feelings long before we even got to our IVF specialist. Impatience, frustration, anger, sadness, and so many more emotions that I directed at myself, my husband, and anyone around me. I wanted to create a pod cast about those stories, there are plenty of voices speaking about the physical discomfort, hormones ect. Movies, social media, and on and on. I want to fill a void that I felt.</p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
