Have you been given the awful diagnosis of infertility? It seems to be given frequently and is very devastating to receive. Brittany and her husband wanted a family but after a year of trying was diagnosed with infertility. The blame and shame began. Infertility is a very heavy word to hear and to deal with. She avoided the medical field for the next year even though she had tremendous pain with her menstrual cycle. She thought suck it up buttercup this pain is just part of your monthly cycle.
She finally went back to the doctor when she could not bear the pain to be given the diagnoses of endometriosis. She was told she needed surgery and was happy to finally be given an answer to the pain and the infertility. Brittany was so excited about having an answer and the doctor assured her that he could handle the surgery, but afterwards she wished she would have gotten a second opinion. The surgery was not a success. ALWAYS search to find the right doctor. I went to a specialist who gave the diagnosis of Stage 4 endometriosis.
Brittany and her husband tried for 4 1/2 years to have a family to love. She gives some great tips and encouragement to help couples that our going through a very difficult journey. She is someone that battled a lot of challenges to finally have 3 beautiful children.
Brittany's Advice: You are not alone and there is more to come in your life. I wish there was a podcast like this to listen to when I was going through my journey. I felt very alone and knew no one that was struggling because of course you don't talk about it. The blame and shame was real.
