Anna, our stories are so similar. PCOS, 2 miscarriages (first one missed after hearing her heartbeat) and have just received our IVF recommendation. You two are so funny and easy to listen to. Thank you 🤍

I have really enjoyed listening to this podcast. I have severe endometriosis, although I have not begun trying to conceive yet, I know that when I do the likelihood that I will be able to do so on my own is slim to none. I appreciate the honesty and wealth of information this couple has shared...Read full review »

I have not yet started my fertility journey, but I am so glad an OBGYN friend recommended this podcast (especially season 2). I think what this show does well is present many scenarios and stories in an open and honest way, helping all listeners learn a common dialogue. Empathy and togetherness -...Read full review »

I am the least likely person to listen to this podcast. As a mom of 7, made the old fashioned way, children I am not the “normal” or even intended audience for this podcast. I actually heard of this podcast from a blogger mom of 10 children. This podcast is like being a fly on the wall of...Read full review »

I love the thoughtful research and mix of personal stories. This podcast gives you a wide point of view on infertility and the impact it has on individuals, couples, families.

Anna and Simon were so honest and real and have been so generous sharing their experiences. It’s presented in a way that’s factual and educational but through a conversational style that made me feel like we are all friends on a similar journey. We are so glad you have your Goldie!
Josephine Asher via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 11/30/18
This podcast is thoughtful, sensative when it needs to be, comedic, honest, thorough, and relatable. The banter was perfection. At first, I listened to 3 episodes from season 1 on my own, but before continuing, I played the first episode for my husband and he was hooked. We listened to the entire...Read full review »

In a generation where contraceptives are so encouraged and millennials are waiting longer to have children it was insightful to learn about the steps and cost of ivf!
B_Chanel via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/21/18
I started listening after a friends rec, then told my husband about it. We both loved listening and related totally to these two on their infertility journey. I appreciate how candid the stories are, the ups and downs, and the f-bombs along the way. Thanks for sharing such an intimate part of...Read full review »

I loved this podcast's season 1. It was riveting, heartfelt, heartbreaking and poignant. Season was a 5 star rating for sure. I am a podcast junkie and this was one of my all time favorites.

Kristie788 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/02/18
My husband and I successfully were able to conceive after 3 IUI, 1 surgery, and 1 round of IVF. We are the only couple in our friend group who have had to go through this and hearing your story has helped me feel connected to another couple that I don’t have in my personal life. Thank you for...Read full review »

Makes me feel less alone in such an experience thats barely spoken about.
Ashley yodel via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/17/18
I haven’t struggled with infertility but this show has deepened my understanding of what so many of my friends go through to become parents — and as a result it has made me a much deeper, more compassionate listener. Simon and Anna’s dynamic strikes the perfect balance of humor and gut-wrenching...Read full review »

Full disclosure - I was a guest on one episode but still wanted to share my thoughts. Anna and Simon bare their souls and give a very real look inside a relationship dealing with infertility.

This podcast is very informative, funny sarcastic and great to listen to. I identified a lot with them and their whole situation. Thank you for sharing in a factual non-sappy way with great music to accompany the emotions. Loved it!!!

When I typed “IVF” and “comedy” into my podcast app, I did not expect to get a hit. I’m so glad I did. Thanks for sharing your story.

After 7.5 years of trying we are on our last round of trying. We are doing a FET. This podcast is so real! Anna I was the same way with all 4 of my MC when I was told at the dr office I was very straight faced and would lose it after. This podcast is so real!!

As someone dealing with the emotional roller coaster of infertility, I reached out to the podcast universe to listen, learn and connect with others out there who know what it is like to be in this head and heart space. I really loved this! I cried, laughed and learnt. Big ups to you two!

If you've supported a partner through a pregnancy loss or infertility, then you will remember that experience listening to this pod - ep 2 especially. Tough to go back to that room, but healing too. Gotta go back there to get out of it, I guess. The experts they bring in really helped me...Read full review »

One of the best ivf podcasts going around. Very helpful to those about to embark on the journey and put things in perspective- so luckily ivf is financially supported by Medicare in Australia. I can’t imagine adding money to my worries.
Kate_m_m via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 01/29/18
Excellent storytelling packed with interesting facts about something I would otherwise not have any knowledge on unless I went through it myself. The vulnerability needed to make this a great podcast along with bits of comedic relief really make it a worthwhile listen whether you're affected...Read full review »
