This week we chat with Elle, a mama of 2 boys up in the sky and 1 boy here on earth, with another little guy on the way via surrogate. Ellie’s story is another difficult one, but is also filled with hope, acceptance and gratitude. We discuss the loss of Elle's boys Taj & Lenny at 20 and 21 weeks of pregnancy, her battle with unexplained infertility followed by multiple unsuccessful IVF attempts and an endometriosis diagnosis, a NICU journey with 25-weeker Sonny, and her current experience with surrogacy – Elle is currently filled to the brim with love as she awaits the arrival of her next little boy with her amazingly kind-hearted surrogate Sarah.
Elle tackles her challenges with such grace and transparency, and opens up about how she’s learnt to surrender and trust the universe, as well as the inward work she’s done to accept her journey, to find peace and hope and to welcome the path she was given.
We think she's an absolutely remarkable woman and we know you will too!
