Claire Walsh - The IVF didn't work Stretch. When it's time to stop TTC.

6 months ago free diver, author and TedX speaker Claire Walsh joined me while she was in the messy middle of IVF treatment with so much yet unknown. link to previous episode "The IVF Stretch"Claire returns to share the heartbreaking but all too real acceptance that it was time to stop IVF and to step forward into a future without conceiving a child.The end of anything brings grief, but there is little ever said about the grief of coming to terms with a fertility journey that did not gift you a child. Too little said about the grief of letting go of the life you always imagined. And far too little time given to the words, feelings and emotions of grieving the children you thought you’d have.I commend Claire for finding words to put to these feelingsI’m not sure she knows how much of a gift it’ll be for anyone who needs to hear it and I’m so grateful she has trusted me with here. Do get in touch with Claire on instagram @clairewalshlifeThank you to my NEW sponsor Dove Advanced Care Body Wash for bringing their support and for creating a body wash with 24 hour moisture straight from the shower. #adHosted by Sinead O'Moore - hit to follow me on insta.Get in touch at @stretchmarkspodcast I'd love to hear from you.
