In this episode, Jacqueline opens up about her entire journey to motherhood, from hopeful beginnings and unexpected infertility, to devastating losses, NICU stays, IVF, and eventually surrogacy. She vulnerably shares the highs, lows, and in-betweens of becoming a mom to three beautiful children, explains why there is no one “right” way to build a family, and lists multiple different family building options for those facing infertility. 

What You’ll Learn:

  • Jacqueline’s complete fertility journey from IUI to IVF to surrogacy
  • The emotional and physical realities of infertility and loss
  • Insight into IVF, embryo testing, surrogacy, egg/sperm donation, and more
  • The differences between gestational vs. traditional surrogacy
  • Why it’s okay to grieve the story you thought you’d have
  • Options available to build a family when things don’t go as planned
