Ep 170: Our Fertility Journey (part 1)

You're Welcome with Hilary Rushford

ICYMI my recent announcement on Instagram, we’ve been on a fertility journey for the last 6 years.

From my first appointment about egg freezing when single, through multiple rounds of (failed) embryo freezing, to moving forward with a surrogate (gestational carrier), and our first embryo transfer last week!

Today I’m answering Q’s you submitted about the process, thoughts, feelings, and decisions along the way.
