Manage episode 435130181 series 3530701
Are you finding that secondary infertility is so much harder than you ever expected?
I experienced both primary & secondary infertility on the journey to building my family. But it was the 2nd journey that knocked me down in ways I never saw coming. The dismissive comments, the guilt, the shame of wanting more, the "but you already have one" remarks...I found empathy from others was in short supply.
If you're in the depths of secondary infertility, then this is the episode you need to listen to.
Today I am speaking to Allie Karagozian from Holding Both. Allie is an occupational therapist with training in mental health + women's health. She runs support program for women on this journey, and she's also the host of the Secondary Infertility Podcast.
By the time you finish listening, you'll find out:
- Why the journey of secondary infertility can feel so much harder than the first
- How to respond to the judgements & comments from others
- How you can support yourself, your relationship & your family when dealing with secondary infertility
You can learn more about Allie over on her website, Instagram or by listening to her podcast.
