IVF UncoveredEP67: Path to Parenthood with AshleyMeet Ashley. Before joining the FU Project, Ashley went through two failed IUIs and one unsuccessful IVF treatment. She felt stressed and bogged down by the constant search for, "Why can't I get pregnant?" Luckily, it only took a few failures before Ashley asked for help. Ashley learned that infertility is not just a scientific process but a culmination of science, mind, and body. She realized that although you can be physically healthy, the toll of constant research and the pressure of "I have to figure it out" all on your own...2021-06-3011 min
IVF UncoveredEP66: Alcohol, Caffeine, Nutrition, Exercise, and AcupunctureI often speak with women that are working so hard on their fertility journey to do everything perfectly. By the time they talk to me, they are exhausted, confused, and at a loss for what do to next. If they're doing everything that they're supposed to do, why isn't it working? IVF doesn't have to feel like jail. You can enjoy life and still work towards creating the family of your dreams. In fact, when you shift your focus from being and doing everything perfectly to doing the things you enjoy and that feel right f...2021-05-2629 min
IVF UncoveredEP65 - Path to Parenthood with KelliMeet Kelli Kelli is not our typical Path to Parenthood story. Kelli had her first child through IVF after two rounds.

Kelli is not pregnant (yet) but would, ha...2021-05-1915 min
IVF UncoveredEP64: Path to Parenthood with JessicaMeet Jessica. Jessica and her husband thought IVF was the answer to their unexplained infertility woes. A doctor would take her eggs, combine them with his sperm, and POOF - a baby. They expected IVF to work on the first round (hint, it took 4 more rounds). When Jessica found the FU Project Workshop, she was still skeptical about bringing in an additional team to help her and her husband on their fertility journey. In fact, she and her husband were the only two people that knew they were going through IVF fo...2021-05-1214 min
IVF UncoveredEP63: My Huge IVF Mistake and LessonAt the ripe age of 33, I would have laughed at anyone that tried to tell me that it would take more than two rounds to have my family. After all, fertility wasn't my problem. My husband was the one with a low sperm count. Boy, was I wrong? IVF can be so overwhelming. Yes, it's science, and it exists to help you grow your family. However, there is a misconception that because science is involved, the probability of error is low. Join me on the FU Project Podcast this week to learn about my HUGE I...2021-05-0512 min
IVF UncoveredEP62: Path To Parenthood With MariMeet Mari. When we met, Mari was sad and angry. Mari and her husband had been trying for a year to conceive, but hadn't had any success. At that point they decided it was best to have some tests done. Doctors diagnosed Mari with unexplained infertility and recommended IVF, but Mari and her husband weren't ready. Instead they continued to try naturally, followed by a couple of failed IUIs. They did eventually get pregnant, but the pregnancy ended in miscarriage. At that point they knew they wanted help and support as th...2021-04-2815 min

IVF UncoveredEP60: Path To Parenthood With AnneMeet Anne. Anne was diagnosed with a diminished ovarian reserve and completed two unsuccessful egg retrievals (1-2 eggs total), followed by two unsuccessful fresh transfers.

The first produced 4 Day 3 embryos which are on ice and then the second produced over 10 eggs and she now has 6 Day 5 genetically tested embryos (not a typo) on ice! These results are a perfect example of how one doctor's opinion and protocol should not define your entire fertility journey and how muc...2021-04-1414 min

I realize that you may be used to having women spread eagle in a room while you're going about your business, but for us, it's strange AF! Give us a towel, a blanket, anything to cover our vagina, and as a result, our anus, from the room full of people taking notes, chit-chatting and getting prepped for a procedure that in theory takes no longer than it takes to insert a tampon. Yet for some reason, he...2021-04-0720 min

IVF UncoveredEP57: How I Recently Dealt with Immense StressI recently had one of the hardest weeks of my life this past December. I was working double time so that I could feel prepared to take a week off for the holidays (that’s already stressful at any point in the year), but then my husband was diagnosed with covid and my dad was dying from covid all at the same time.

IVF UncoveredEP55: Does God Believe in IVF?Oh yes, I’m going there. We are talking about God, Religion and your IVF journey. Religion can play a huge role in your life’s decisions. It can play an even more confusing role if your religion and life goals create conflicting in ideologies. But is IVF and fertility support innately against God’s will? Are you playing God by using IVF to get you pregnant? This whole God conversation started because someone thought it was wrong and ungodly for me to have my blonde haired, blue eyed children through IVF. They thought it was wron...2021-03-1019 min

When you’re going on your 10th round of IVF like I was, you get a little desperate for something to make you magically pregnant, even if that involves taking crazy advice from strangers.

Are you riding the emotional rollercoaster and wondering why your partner seems to be sitting cool, calm and collected on the sidelines? It's easy to feel like you're making all of the sacrifice while your partner's life seems unfazed by the IVF rollercoaster? IVF is a huge commitment and places a lot of physical, emotional and mental demand on the female.

IVF UncoveredEP45: Path to Parenthood with ErinMeet Erin… For Erin, deciding to do IVF after trying for about a year wasn’t the problem. In fact, she was confident going into IVF since there were no obvious problems with her or her partner’s fertility. When we met she had done two rounds of IVF. She had everything going for her - high egg reserve at 39 and loads of embryos after fertilization. But she only has a total of 1 embryo (between the two rounds) by the end.

IVF UncoveredEP40: Fertility Diet Hits and Misses with (my husband) Brian PannuzzoMost of us are fed ideas of what healthy and ideal lives look like from the diet, wellness and fitness industry. For women, this tends to mean we are in constant diet mode: losing 5 pounds for the vacation, a few pounds over here for the wedding, take some off over here after the holidays. Nutrition can get especially confusing when there are so many “miracle” diets and quick fixes preaching that they are the best for your health. Brian Pannuzzo is a nutrition and health coach, and, well, my lovely husband and the father to our t...2020-11-0445 min
