Little Kids: How To Tackle Secondary Infertility

Welcome to This Glorious Mess Little Kids. A twice-weekly look at parenting as it really is - confusing, exhausting, inspiring, funny, and full of surprises. So many surprises! Getting pregnant the second time around isn't always easy. Just because your body has done it before, doesn't mean it will 'know what to do' when it comes to expanding the family the second, third or even fourth time around.  Secondary infertility is all about the struggle to conceive after having a child. There isn't always a conclusive diagnosis as to why you may be infertile, besides the obvious factors, age, your egg reserve and ovulation issues, which can leave anyone feeling a little hopeless. This week we unpack the misconceptions, the bad advice, assisted fertility and what you need to know if you're thinking about expanding the family.  LINKS You can listen to Leigh on Get Me Pregnant now!  RECOMMENDATIONS Tegan: Cookie Cutters... for sandwiches!  Leigh: No Nasties - SLiCK KiDS Plant-Based Hair Gel from The Well Store CREDITS Host: Leigh Campbell & Tegan Natoli Guest: Manuela Toledo Producers: Mikayla Floriano & Emma Gillespie CONTACT US Share your listener dilemmas with us!
