Special Episode! Will Most Women With Recurrent Miscarriage Go On To Have A Baby? - with Lora Shahine
In this episode ... well it's the season finale!
Wrapping up season 1 with an incredibly informative episode chatting to Dr. Lora Shahine about all things miscarriage, and I spill the beans on why season 1 ends here!
Dr. Shahine is a Fertility Specialist, IVF doctor, Reproductive Endocrinologist, Author and Podcaster based in Seattle.
We discuss:
What are some myths about miscarriage that aren't helpful?
Does the emotional support from your specialist affect your fertility?
Are chromosomal abnormalities the main cause of recurrent loss?
Should IVF be considered when miscarriage is the issue?
Should we add in medications like steroids or progesterone without indication?
Where should research be focused on in solving "unexplained" infertility?
And more!

We Could Have Let Our Son's Death Destroy Us But That's Just Not Who We Are - with Sarah Morris (IVF, unicornuate uterus, ANA, miscarriage, endometriosis, stillbirth, twin pregnancy)
In this episode Sarah shares very openly and evenly her journey through IVF, ANA, being diagnosed with a unicornuate uterus, the loss of her perfectly healthy son, and the double rainbow that followed.
I messaged Sarah before releasing this episode as I wanted to know if the term “stillborn” was how she refers to her son Michael so I could use the appropriate term in this episode description.
She thanked me for asking, and said that even though her son was born alive, he had passed by the time a medical professional saw him and so he is technically classed as a stillborn. She gave me the go ahead to use the term.
So even though I have. I also don’t want to rob Sarah of anymore than she has been. I don’t want to ignore those seconds that Michael lived. I don’t want to use a term just because it’s easy or technically apt. I want to honour her story, Michaels story. So I’m sharing this here, so we can all hear and know, that “stillborn” does not always encapsulate the exact experience of this type of loss.
And so that we can truly understand the extent of Michael’s life.
