40. 6 Ways to Take Control of Your Fertility with Laura Watson

If you’ve been trying for a baby and you feel like life has thrown some tough punches at you, you are not alone. Infertility is heartbreaking and frustrating especially when you keep trying with no success.

Through each of these failures, each doctor’s appointment, and as time ticks on it can feel like you are losing control. Control over what is happening to your body, how you spend your time, how you spend your money, and even how you relate to your partner. The truth is there are ways for you to regain some of that control to help you navigate your path to becoming a parent in the best way for you.

On the episode today, I’m joined by Laura Watson. Laura is a fertility coach and fellow donor egg mama who supports women who are suffering for infertility. Using mind body techniques and connecting to who you are as a person, she gives us six great ways to take back control of your life and your fertility.

Laura Watson is a fertility coach and mom to her two donor conceived children. Her personal journey included failed fertility treatments, several unsuccessful rounds of IVF, and three heartbreaking pregnancy losses before completing her family with donor egg IVF. She now supports women pursuing fertility treatments to build their families and helps them find control, confidence and joy in a complicated process.

Did your doctor just tell you that you need to use a donor?

Or, you think donor might be on the horizon but you are not sure yet?

Or, you already know you need to use a donor but you want some more help processing the idea.
