The Moving Goalpost of Children

Did you originally envision a large family with your spouse, and at this point you would be happy with 1-2 children? Or perhaps you are single with advanced reproductive age, and you're thinking about having one child instead of more, like you originally envisioned. Or perhaps you're like me--an abrupt divorce changed your family building vision, and we all know that egg freezing is not a solution in and of itself. On the fertility journey, there are all sorts of unanticipated forks in the road--pieces of new information which cause us to reevaluate and reconsider if the current path is going to lead us to our original goal. In this episode, we discuss the following:When expectations changeDiscovering our deepest whyMaking values-based, aligned decisionsPartner disagreements (if relevant)Expanded approaches for family buildingHow to know which way to move forwardThis episode is near and dear to my heart.
