After having her first child without complication, she faced a long and painful road trying to conceive again, marked by multiple miscarriages, unanswered questions, and an ever-widening age gap between her children that brought its own emotional weight.Fiona speaks candidly about the grief and guilt that can accompany secondary infertility, and the isolation of feeling like you “should be grateful” but still aching for the family you imagined. With honesty and courage, she shares what it was like to keep going through each loss, what finally helped her feel seen, and how she continued to hold space for hope even in her darkest moments.This episode reminds us that every fertility journey is unique — and that no pain is diminished just because joy came first.Key Takeaway: “Gratitude and grief can coexist — and it’s okay to want more, even when you already have love.”Connect with Fiona https://www.instagram.com/fitfertilitea/** TRIGGER WARNING ** PREGNANCY LOSS ** We want to inform our listeners that this particular episode mentions the sensitive topic of miscarriage.
