55. Marie's Surrogacy Journey & Finding Hope After 6 years of Infertility
Your feedback means so much hello@ivfsupportspace.com
In this episode, I speak to Marie from California to discuss the complexities and emotional journey of using surrogacy to achieve parenthood after experiencing infertility and multiple miscarriages.
Marie shares her extensive six-year battle with infertility, including failed IVF attempts, a natural pregnancy followed by miscarriage, and ultimately the decision to pursue egg donation and surrogacy.
The story delves into the challenges and mindset shifts required throughout the process, the intricacies of working with an egg donor and a surrogate, and the deep emotional impacts of each step. Marie's story is one of resilience, the importance of support and letting go of control, and the joy of finally becoming a mother.
