013. Can a "break" from fertility treatments actually lead to the miracle you've been waiting for? In this episode, we meet Rhiannon, a grandmother from Ohio who defied the odds to welcome her 10th child—a natural pregnancy at age 44. After finding that fertility medications weren't working, Rhiannon and her husband decided to step back and rethink their plan. It was during this period of "sitting back" that she conceived naturally, leading to a smooth, empowered pregnancy. We dive into how Rhiannon advocated for herself within the medical system, managed her health with iron injections, and navigated the unique experience of being both a grandmother and a new mother simultaneously. If you are TTC over 40 and feeling discouraged by failed treatments, Rhiannon’s story is a powerful reminder to trust your body’s timing and your own intuition.
