38: Our Journey to a Third Baby | Our Failed Embryo Transfer & How to Support Someone Through It

Messy Motherhood

Show Notes

This isn't the story I expected to be sharing, but this is the one we get to share.

Many of you have followed our journey to a third baby through social media or through this podcast and now it's time to bring a close to this chapter of our story. Our beta day from our embryo transfer ended differently than we had hoped and when we got the call, we found out that our transfer had failed.

In today's episode, I am sharing this story of grief while also sharing the bits of hope that I still feel are open to us. This episode is real, raw, and vulnerable as I openly share a breakdown of our beta day followed by a highlight of the weeks since we got the call.

If you've experienced a failed embryo transfer, I hope this episode brings you a sense of comfort or support wherever you are in your journey. If you know someone who has gone through this, I hope you find tangible pieces of support that you can pass on to your loved ones.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being here and I hope this episode blesses you in some way.

"It doesn't have to be perfect in order for it to be beautiful. It doesn't have to be perfect in order for it to be special. It doesn't have to be perfect in order for it to be memorable. It's not about everything being perfect. It's about everyone being together and making memories. Focus on being present, not perfect." - Stephanie Booe
