Karen’s Journey: “I was so focused on being pregnant that I lost sight of wanting to be a mom.”

This episode features an in-depth discussion with Karen about her journey through infertility and adoption. She openly shares the challenges she faced, including the emotional toll of successful fertility treatments, the impact that family building struggles can have on relationships, and how she determined adoption was the best path for her family. As Karen recounts her experience of matching with her daughter’s birth mother and the emotional intricacies of that relationship, she emphasizes the importance of having a support system, whether through friends, family, online communities, or support groups, and the importance of staying open to all possibilities as you navigate the twists and turns of your journey.Visit Karen at Possibili Teas in Bridgewater, MA.Learn about AllPaths’ Adoption Support Group at https://allpathsfb.org/support/.TOPICS COVERED IN THIS EPISODE:Massachusetts, infertility, fertility treatment, IUI, unexplained infertility, mental health support, access to care, fertility testing, polyps, relationships, fertility insurance coverage, adoption, adoption agency, birth parent, closed adoption, Georgia, hope, grief, family and friends, community support, Instagram, therapy, family building, infertility support, adoption journey, emotional support in infertility, navigating family growth, IVF experiences, fertility treatment options, coping with infertility, community support for families, personal adoption stories, family growth challenges, mental health in family building, infertility awareness, support groups for infertility, family building resources, understanding infertility, adoption process explained, building a family through adoption, stories of hope in infertility, supporting families in transitionCONNECT WITH ALLPATHS FAMILY BUILDING: https://allpathsfb.orgFollow us on social media @allpathsfbWant to share your story or ask a question?
