• BFN's Gabby & Emma

  This is a real treat of an episode, we managed to catch the wonderful BFN girls, Gabby and Emma for a chat! BFN is amongst the OG fertility podcasts, and became an absolute beacon of light for Sian and myself in our trying days. They are funny, frank, and informative and through their incredibly successful podcast they have amassed some incredible guests. They also happen to be two of the loveliest humans you could meet.A quick trigger warning, both Gabby and Emma's stories did end in IVF success but we don't speak much about their pregnancies or babies in this episode.This was recorded a couple of months ago, during Catherine's last two week wait, and we had meant to release it before now, but life threw us a curveball with our pregnancy loss, so it was put on the back burner. If anything seems a little out of date that is why. You can find BFN on social media, podcasts, and also read or listen to their brilliant book. They are currently taking a summer break from their substack but will be back in the autumn. We hope you enjoy the episode!You can find us on instagram @ivfbffpod or email us on [email protected].
