Heartache To Hope: Coping with Infertility, IVF & Miscarriage
The Heartache To Hope Podcast is where we get real about infertility, IVF, pregnancy loss and everything in between. My journey to having a baby has been and continues to be heartbreaking, complicated and relentless. I understand your pain and I believe you have incredible strength, even on the dark days. Through my interviews with ordinary woman who have become extraordinary through their journeys, as well as hearing from people whose life’s work it is to support those going through these challenges, I will help you navigate the emotional rollercoaster. We will share tips, advice, and stories to help support you in your heartache and help you find your hope, whatever that is. This is your safe space, where you can grab a glass of wine, or cup of tea, sit, listen, and not feel alone or overwhelmed and perhaps even feel empowered. Even if just for a moment. We need to change the narrative for those going through this. Here, we give it a voice.You are not alone. Anita xx

So, today is my birthday. And although now it is a time for celebration and I am embracing everything that being in your early 40’s throws at you, I am reflecting today on all the birthdays where I had the birthday blues. Where a birthday was just a reminder of my infertility challenges and another year getting older. The tick tick tick in the back of my mind and with each passing year the tick tick tick getting louder and louder.
In this very short ep I talk through why birthdays suck when you are going through infertility and the ways in which you can make them suck a little less.
