This is a fantastic podcast that is refreshingly honest and shares issues that so many people go through in silence. Very interesting and easy to relate to, highly recommended.

After going through a very similar situation to this couple, I found it very comforting that all the worries and frustrations I had been feeling were in fact quite normal. I have watched and listened to many IVF documentary’s and it so nice to hear the couple talk openly about the real life...Read full review »

Informative content, it’s just a shame it’s so wooden and scripted in its delivery.

Listening to this journey I can 10000% relate as I have the exact same condition and even used the same clinic for my ivf rounds! So informative and emotional but the reality and a real account of this horrendous journey. Only bit of information that I was hoping to hear about that wasn’t...Read full review »

When my first round of IVF was cancelled and I was suddenly faced with the fear that I might not be able to have my own children, this show filled me with so much hope. It made me realise how many ways there are to create a family - from donor conception to overseas adoption. It’s honest and...Read full review »

Super interessanter Podcast

Thank you both for being so honest. It’s happens to a lot more people than one might think. You are certainly not alone with feelings of jealousy and frustration. It is a completely normal and natural reaction to being in an incredibly unjust situation. I wish you both the very best.
emilia_t via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/04/19
This is just a wonderful podcast which I stumbled across a couple of weeks ago by accident. As someone on my own very difficult IVF journey they have beautifully captured the heartbreak of the journey. I never expected it to be this difficult emotionally. Physically yes, but not the heartbreak....Read full review »

Brilliant, raw, emotional, honest and informative podcast looking all the different ways you can be a parent. Recommended to anyone who is going through or who knows someone suffering with infertility. Would love to hear some follow up episodes once you’ve decided what path to take!

Listened to this start to finish in just over a day. Like others this has really helped me to think about our other options if IVF doesn’t work for us. Thanks for your honesty and vulnerability, it’s inspirational.

It’s an amazing and honest story that Sophie tells and very similar to our own journey. It’s nice to know you’re not so alone after all.
Sophie E S via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/14/19
I found this podcast difficult and wonderful at the same time. Being TTC for 3 plus years I have been Exeter focused on baby, pregnancy. I haven’t allowed myself to think about what happens next if this doesn’t work out, and what that will look like. It is wonderful to know that there are many...Read full review »

I binge-listened to the whole series in one sitting! This was a refreshingly honest and inspiring listen.

This podcast could not have come at a better time for myself and my husband. It’s become a spring board for us to have some difficult and life changing decisions.

An incredibly honest and moving story of infertility, ivf and the love, pain and hope that comes with it. Thank you for sharing your story, it’s given us some direction at a very difficult time.
KellyMols via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/11/18
I wish there had been a blog like this when we were struggling to conceive. It’s a great overview of the options available to couples who are facing infertility with the added bonus that it’s by someone who is in that situation herself. There are so many echoes of my own experience and I think it...Read full review »

What a brilliant podcast series. Sophie and Jonny have been so open about their journey. It can’t be easy sharing the most personal things, especially with people you don’t even know. I know this series will help so many people. If you haven’t listened, it’s definitely worth a go.
Alisia Evans via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/03/18
What a much needed, honest, raw and beautifully produced piece of work covering issues so many of us experience and so few people talk about to openly. Thank you-we want to hear more from you.

I’ve only listened to two episodes but would highly recommend this to anyone going through fertility issues. Really interested to hear more about the options after IVF and am so thankful to anyone who feels able to share their story. Hearing the male perspective is very hearting as well.
