13) Is everything Rosie?

As fertility treatment ends, pregnancy begins... After another set back we finally get the news we have been waiting for and we are let out into the big wide world! It came as a shock leaving The Lister Clinic to go and deal with the normal pregnancy dramas that others go through. There are still lessons to be learned; this isn't a 9-month journey, this is a six years and 9-month journey, and there is a lot of anxiety and pressure that goes with "Being pregnant after fertility treatment."  The final episode tells the last chapter in our story and the miracle that is now our daughter Rosie. I talk through some tips on how to get you through this final exciting, but stressful stage.     *The importance of hope and never giving up   *Facts around bleeding in pregnancy   *What to do if you are still on your own personal journey   A bonus montage right at the end. Keep listening!   A shout out to all those that made this journey and podcast possible Thank you for listening, this has been series 1 of IVFDAD, stay healthy, stay positive and remember, it only takes one.

SPOILER ALERT: After 5 years of trying for a baby, countless rounds of IVF, treatment, 18 embryos AND some life changing decisions, our daughter Rosie was born in January 2020. Along the way, there was heartache, pain, wacky diets, excitement, hope, determination, loss of faith and a lot of needles. It can be a lonely rollercoaster ride and I was struck by the fact that there was little from a male perspective and I vowed if we were successful to do start the conversation. This is a very personal story, with some difficult and uncomfortable truths. Throughout this series we’ll go behind the curtain at the fertility clinic and meet the consultants, embryologists and team to get the low down on those tough questions, how to improve your chances, some facts on what to expect AND some money saving tips.
