Ep 40: The one where we cry a lot: canceled cycles, pregnant friends, and our holiday plans

We’re crying, we’re laughing, and we’re surviving the holidays without losing it. Amy’s egg retrieval got canceled (spoiler: insurance companies can kick rocks), and we’re talking getting lapped by friends with pregnancy announcements, plus all the messy emotions infertility brings. We get real about feeling left behind, share how we find small joys, practice self-care, binge our favorite holiday movies, and lean on each other (and you!) to get through it.
