How To Talk to Your Family About IVF During the Holidays

from FertiliTEA with Dr. D · host FertiliTEA with Dr. D

The holidays can be joyful—but if you're going through IVF, they can also bring tough questions, unsolicited advice, and emotional conversations with family. In this episode, we're talking about how to navigate IVF conversations during the holidays in a way that protects your mental health and honors your boundaries. We'll cover how to decide what (if anything) you want to share about your IVF journey, ways to respond to invasive family questions, and scripts you can use when family gatherings feel overwhelming.  If you're dealing with infertility, IVF, or pregnancy pressure during the holidays, you're not alone—and you don't owe anyone your story.  We hope this provides someone with reassurance and empowerment to you this holiday season!   Hosted by Said Daneshmand, MD FACOG Produced by Phoebe Gurrola   Join the Learn at Pinnacle app ⁠to earn FREE CE Credit for listening to this episode!
