Triggering warning: This episode features a discussion about stillbirth and abortion.
In today's video, we'll talk with Kate Munro, who will take us through her incredible journey with IVF and many years of trying to get pregnant. Her story is not smooth sailing as she talks about her experience with multiple pregnancies including heartbreaking stillbirth and late medical abortion/termination. First and foremost, we would like to thank her for being so honest and open in sharing her story.
After having a successful first pregnancy using IVF, she endured the agony of stillbirth and having to terminate her 3rd pregnancy at 18 weeks due to genetic abnormalities. She did not give up hope, however, and continued down the IVF route to conceive her son in her fourth pregnancy. Kate will go on to describe her journey to IVF as a rollercoaster ride full of emotions. We'll learn about her first, second, third, and fourth pregnancies, as well as the experiences she had with each.
This episode is part of a 2 part series. As you will hear, Kate and her husband choose to donate the remaining live embryos she has to another mum over East. We learn more about this process during the second episode.
