On this week's episode of our Listener Series, we are joined by Lynn. Lynn shares with us about her infertility journey and fertility treatments during COVID and her long extensive labor with high blood pressure. She had some extended recovery but found herself being readmitted twice during the first week and then had a cardiology consult and was diagnosed with PPCM. Lynn reminds us about the importance of advocating for yourself when something doesn't feel right in your body, because you know your body best.
On this episode, you will hear:
- unexplained infertility
- IUI and IVF during COVID
- high blood pressure and magnesium drip
- retained placenta and tearing
- readmitted twice after discharge
- cardiology consult
- PPCM diagnosis
- seeking validation
