In today's Pretty Little Tribe Podcast episode, we are joined by Dr. Shannon Clark, OB/GYN, Maternal-Fetal Medicine Doctor, educator, researcher, TikToker and mother of twins.    After becoming an OB/GYN, Shannon spent an extra three years studying to sub-specialize in Maternal-Fetal Medicine.

After a miscarriage and five rounds of IVF, Shannon was discouraged from her losses. She was finally able to become pregnant with twins using donor eggs and IVF, but her pregnancy soon became complicated. She delivered at 31 weeks and had both twins spend time in the NICU for 5-6 weeks.    Shannon's experiences gave her a unique insight into the struggles that her patients go through. Not only does she continue to educate people on everything from high-risk pregnancies to breast feeding on her Tik Tok account, but she is able to do so from a place of personal experience and compassion.    Join us as Shannon shares her specialized knowledge in Maternal Fetal Medicine and answers my questions about high-risk pregnancies.    If you enjoyed this episode of the Pretty Little Tribe Podcast, make sure you rate us five stars wherever you're listening, and we'll see you next week!    Find Shannon: IG: @babiesafter35 Website: www.babiesafter35.com TikTok: @tiktokbabydoc Follow us on Instagram! @prettylittletribe Music:  Miss Summer by Roa Music | https://soundcloud.com/roa_music1031 Music promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.com Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en_US

In today's Pretty Little Tribe Podcast episode, we are joined by Eloise Edington, founder and editor of the Fertility Help Hub, an online resource, podcast, and community app.    When Eloise and her husband were unable to conceive, they discovered that her husband had Klinefelter syndrome and has low testosterone and no sperm count as a result. After deciding on a donor and a few rounds of IVF, Eloise and her husband are now parents of three.   When going through this journey, Eloise found it difficult to find people that she could relate to. Eloise found that knowing at least one other person who had donor children was a comfort to her. She wanted other women to be able to make these connections and also find accurate resources and information. So she created the Fertility Help Hub which consists of a podcast, a website with resources and tips, and a community app so people can connect with others sharing similar struggles.   Join us as Eloise tells us more about the Fertility Help Hub and how she was able to make the community that she wished she had during her journey.    If you enjoyed this episode of the Pretty Little Tribe Podcast, make sure you rate us five stars wherever you're listening, and we'll see you next week!    Find Eloise: IG: @fertility_help_hub Website: www.fertilityhelphub.com Podcast: Fertility Help Hub Podcast App: Fertility Squad App Follow us on Instagram! @prettylittletribe Music:  Miss Summer by Roa Music | https://soundcloud.com/roa_music1031 Music promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.com Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en_US  

In today's Pretty Little Tribe Podcast episode, we are joined by Tara Clark, creator of Instagram's @modernmomprobs and author of Modern Mom Probs: A Survival Guide for 21st Century Mothers. When Tara married her high school sweetheart, everything was going according to plan. They wanted to try for kids before 30, so when she fell pregnant on their first try, she thought everything was going perfect. Until she experienced her first miscarriage on her 29th birthday. After two more miscarriages, polyp removal, unexplained infertility, three IUI's, and a whole lot of bargaining with a higher power, Tara's three year journey finally resulted in a beautiful baby boy. As blessed as she is, Tara still remembers how alone she and her husband felt during this journey, so she created a space to share her own story of motherhood and connect with other moms who are having similar experiences.  Join us as Tara talks about her journey of both loss and infertility and how she learned to go easy on herself.  If you enjoyed this episode of the Pretty Little Tribe Podcast, make sure you rate us five stars wherever you're listening, and we'll see you next week!    Find Tara: IG: @modernmomprobs Website: www.modernmomprobs.com Book: Modern Mom Probs: A Survival Guide for 21st Century Mothers Follow us on Instagram! @prettylittletribe Music:  Miss Summer by Roa Music | https://soundcloud.com/roa_music1031 Music promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.com Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en_US
