EP 31: Do you suddenly want a baby more than ever? (ft. Jillian Michaels)
from My Fertology · host Mary Wong, R.TCMP & Dr. Tanya Wylde, ND
Did you ever think that you'd have a life without kids but then your maternal clock kicked in and the next thing you know an insatiable drive to have kids? The drive is there, but then you realize there are technical issues. When it comes to creating a family, technical issues can arise in many circumstances from blocked fallopian tubes to needing donor eggs or sperm. It can be even more challenging in a same sex relationship. In some countries, they do not allow adoption to gay parents … which is ridiculous but that’s not todays topic. If you want a baby with your own DNA, you need to find a sperm donor in the instance of a two woman relationship. You need to find an egg donor and a surrogate to carry your baby in the instance of a two man relationship. At the end of the day and beyond the technical challenges, the emotional struggle is not much different as we strive to create our families in heterosexual relationships with fertility challenges. We spoke with Jillian Michaels, the iconic personal trainer, best known for being on NBC’s, The Biggest Loser, author, and creator of The Fitness App. Jillian shared her story of how her and her wife, Heidi at the time had two babies a week apart.
