"I’m Single At 35 & Having A Baby Alone"

Get Me Pregnant is Mamamia's podcast that makes understanding assisted fertility easy. Consider this your no-BS guide!

What happens when you've always wanted to start a family, but you haven't found the right person to do it with?

Our guest today, Sorrell always knew she wanted to be a mum. But when 'Mr Right' failed to show up, she decided to take matters into her own hands.

Today, Sorrell has two beautiful children conceived through the help of assisted fertility. Sorrell joins host, Leigh Campbell to talk about what it's really like to do IVF alone, how she picked her donor and what advice she has for other women looking to start a family.

Plus, Dr Manuela Toledo stops by for Fact or Fiction. Manuela is going to help unpack some of the myths around sperm donors and having a baby alone.

SPECIAL THANKS

A huge thank you to Sorrell for coming on and sharing her family's story!
