You likely already know Heidi Murkoff - she is the author of the internationally bestselling What to Expect series of pregnancy and parenting guides, which includes What to Expect When You're Expecting. (And knowing how beloved this book is, it probably comes as no surprise that this popular book has sold over 40 million copies in 42 languages). It goes without saying that I am beyond honored to have her join me today as the guest on The Egg Whisperer Show. In this conversation, we're talking about what inspired Heidi to write the first What to Expect When You're Expecting, her community of 20 million moms, the non profit she founded that helps at-risk moms, and what's changed since the book first came out 25 years ago. Time magazine named Heidi one of the 100 Most Influential People in the World for 2011, and she and her husband Erik have received numerous awards for their humanitarian work, including, in June of 2022, the highest award given to civilians by the department of defense, the Fisher Distinguished Civilian Humanitarian award.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Rebecca N. Thompson: a family medicine and public health physician specializing in women's and children's health, and the author of Held Together, a deeply personal and collaborative memoir that weaves her own fertility and pregnancy complications with the stories of 21 other women navigating infertility, loss, and complex paths to building families. Becca brings a rare dual perspective to this conversation: she has lived this journey as both a physician and a patient, surviving life-threatening pregnancy complications even as she was training to care for others. Together, we explore the raw and often unspoken emotional terrain of the fertility journey, including the shame, isolation, and identity shifts that so many of my patients experience. We talk about how storytelling and community can be profoundly healing, why healers need healing too, and how grief and hope can coexist on the path to building the family you dream of, even when that path looks nothing like you planned. In this episode, we cover: How Dr. Thompson's own string of pregnancy losses shaped her both as a patient and as a physician Why sharing personal stories about infertility and loss is one of the most powerful antidotes to shame and isolation How grief and hope can coexist, and why Held Together is ultimately an empowering book The way infertility reshapes identity, and how women can reclaim a sense of power and agency during reproductive challenges What it means to "heal the healer" How non-traditional paths to parenthood (adoption, surrogacy, fostering, and more) expand and redefine what family truly means Practical guidance on finding support: from therapy and journaling to community groups and simply knowing when it's okay to sit with uncertainty Resources: Dr. Rebecca N.

Dr. Fein shares her personal and professional journey, highlighting how achieving a healthy weight can positively impact reproductive health. We discuss the science behind weight and fertility, including how even modest weight loss can enhance ovulation and increase the chances of conception. Dr. Fein offers practical strategies for weight loss that focus on long-term success rather than quick fixes. She emphasizes the importance of self-compassion and understanding one's relationship with food. Dr. Fein also addresses common misconceptions about weight and fertility, providing clarity on how individualized approaches can make a significant difference. Whether you're preparing for pregnancy or undergoing fertility treatments, this episode offers valuable insights into how weight management can play a crucial role in your fertility journey. In this episode, we cover: The connection between weight and fertility How modest weight loss can improve ovulation and conception rates Sustainable weight loss strategies tailored for women trying to conceive The role of self-compassion in weight management Debunking myths about weight and fertility Read the article on Dr. Aimee's Website.

Today, Dr. Kristin Brogaard is joining me today to talk about the Path Fertility SpermQT test. I'm so excited to have her share about the test, because as you'll hear her say "lots of infertility goes undiagnosed because men go undiagnosed, and when men go undiagnosed, women go through procedures that will not work." (Who else wants to see this on a bumper sticker?) While sperm were long considered to be just carriers of DNA, it turns out they are a lot more complex than that! Understanding the sperm side of the equation can help anyone trying to conceive better understand what's going on, and help them figure out the best plan to get pregnant. A few exciting highlights from our discussion: Male and sperm epigenetics play a big role in getting pregnant, and having a successful live birth. The SpermQT test can tell someone if their sperm is excellent, average, or poor quality. - Knowing this information can help you and your doctor determine the most efficient and appropriate next steps in your treatment or protocols. Understanding the quality of the sperm can lead to better outcomes. If it is "excellent," there is an increased likelihood of IUI working, even in cases where doctors thought sperm might be the issue with getting pregnant. If sperm quality is "poor," you may want to try making lifestyle changes to improve sperm quality, and retest. - Poor sperm quality often correlates with other longer term health issues for men, as sperm acts as a "canary in the coal mine." (an early warning system) Dr. Kristin Brogaard has a PhD from Northwestern University where she developed a novel epigenetic technology that allowed for a more accurate understanding of gene expression in health and disease cells. She is now the chief scientific officer of Path Fertility, whose goal is to raise the standard in male reproductive health, starting with male infertility. Thank you for joining us, Kristin!

One of the most common questions I get is, "Dr. Aimee, how can I improve egg, sperm and embryo quality?" We know that age, genetics and environment influence egg, sperm, and embryo quality. I've been searching for a diagnostic tool that monitors environmental exposures for my patients, and I'm so excited to have found that one exists. Dr. Jenna Hua of Million Marker joins me to talk all about the impacts of the environment on fertility. We will be talking about how plastics, BPA, and phthalates impact your fertility and reproductive health.

Get the full show notes: https://www.draimee.org/the-7-things-you-didnt-know-about-the-trigger-shot I often tell my patients that we should rename the Trigger Shot, the super unicorn sparkle shot, the egg launcher shot, or the EGG-cellerator shot. Let's be honest, the Trigger Shot is the worst name for something that does so much good on a fertility journey.⠀ In this episode, I'm sharing all about The Trigger Shot, and giving you the 7 things you need to know about it. Should you test for ovulation afterwards, and if so, when? Do you have to have a Trigger Shot? Can you administer it at home, or does it need to be in a doctor's office? When should you check for pregnancy after the shot to make sure it isn't in your system anymore?⠀ See the full show notes here. Purchase my book, The Egg Whisperer Way.

Dr. Diane Tober specializes in reproductive technologies, bioethics, and the commodification of the body, and her groundbreaking book Eggonomics brings all of that expertise together in one essential read for anyone curious about the egg and sperm donation industry. We dig into one of the most compelling stories from her book: the journey of Allyn, a woman who navigated the egg donation process on her own terms. Through Allyn's experience, Dr. Tober and I explore what it really means to donate thoughtfully with full information, a clear sense of your own values, and an eye toward the humans who may one day be born from that decision. This conversation is about empowerment, reproductive justice, and reimagining a system that too often prioritizes commerce over connection. In this episode, we cover: What prospective egg donors should research before committing to any clinic or agency How one donor's experience revealed racial bias in the egg donation industry The difference between anonymous and open donation and why it matters for donor-conceived people How hearing from donor-conceived individuals changed one donor's perspective on financial compensation and identity The concept of "egg sharing" as an alternative model for donation Why grounding egg donation in reproductive justice and human rights leads to better outcomes for everyone Dr. Tober's vision for a more transparent, ethical, and connection-centered donation industry Resources: Eggonomics by Dr. Diane Tober, available on Amazon Dr. Diane Tober's site Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4w20dXVKYd9A81PTNkyzXQ Join The IVF Class: https://the-egg-whisperer-school.teachable.com/p/the-ivf-class/ Read the blog: https://draimee.org/the-show Would you like to learn more about IVF?Click here to join Dr. Aimee for The IVF Class.

Imagine an insemination kit with a syringe specifically designed for the female body that you can use with your partner or sperm donor in the comfort of your own home. I'm delighted to have Maureen Brown, co-founder of Mosie Baby joining me on the this week to talk about the home insemination kit that she and her husband designed after being faced with infertility.⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ As you know, I really love innovative products and ideas that help people reach their goals. Anything that helps demystify fertility and helps women get pregnant is a win in my book. What I love about the Mosie Baby story is that Maureen and her husband decided to create a product that they could not find and wished existed during their fertility journey. We talk about how the kit was invented, her own experience using it, how it works, and about some of her favorite success stories.
