Everything in your world is changing, including your body, your relationships with other people, and of course, your future! It can be nerve wracking, and it’s also an amazing and wonderful time to embrace.

Read the full show notes: https://www.draimee.org/how-to-be-emotionally-resilient-during-fertility-treatment-with-guest-abbe-feder "Is it possible to become emotionally resilient, so that you can handle all of the things that you face as a fertility patient without feeling overwhelmed and triggered constantly?" I get this question all. the. time, and today I'm excited to have Abbe Feder of Incircle Fertility on to share tips, tricks, and mindset shifts with us! Tip 1: Be kind to yourself, and know that things like baby announcements, or nosy questions from family members are triggering to many fertility patients. That doesn't make it easier, but it might help to know you're not alone in the feelings. Some of these triggers can come from unexpected places. Tip 2: To work through triggers: talk about the trigger, acknowledge the trigger, become aware of what triggers you, and then "figure out what works best for you to get past the trigger" when they do come up. Tip 3: Allow yourself to feel your emotions. Don't push them aside. Find a trusted friend, family member, spouse, partner or coach to help you. They don't have to understand what you're going through, the key is that they are able to listen to you and let you talk. Abbe Feder is a fertility coach and the founder and CEO of InCircle Fertility. She and her husband host the podcast Maculate Conception, and she is the creator of the (In)Fertility Cards of Affirmation. We had the pleasure of meeting at a panel with Fertility Rally and I could not be more excited to have her on the show to talk about how to be emotionally resilient during fertility treatment. Today, we're talking about what it means to be a fertility coach, how to find support for your journey, and how to develop more resiliency when facing the ups and downs of being a fertility patient.

What is PGT? In this episode of The Egg Whisperer Show, I'm sharing all about Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT). PGT is a revolutionary test we can use as part of IVF, and it analyzes the genetic makeup of embryos before implantation. This screening helps patients identify genetic abnormalities in embryos, ensuring that only embryos with the correct number of chromosomes and no detectable genetic issues are selected for transfer. PGT can be particularly beneficial for couples with a known history of genetic disorders, recurrent miscarriages, or those undergoing IVF treatment who want to increase their chances for a successful, healthy pregnancy. By testing embryos at this critical early stage, PGT offers hopeful parents a snapshot of their embryos' potential health and viability. While no test is 100% infallible, PGT is a helpful tool. Key Takeaways:  - What is PGT? Understanding the basics and the role it plays in IVF.  - Who should consider PGT and when is the right time?  - The risks and benefits associated with PGT.  - Insights into the process of embryo biopsy and genetic testing.  - Pro tips on how to navigate PGT and make informed decisions. Don't miss this comprehensive guide to PGT! You can listen to, or watch, this episode on my website: https://www.draimee.org/what-is-pgt Do you have questions about IVF, and what to expect?
