Today, Ali is talking to Fertility Rally member Keren, who is still in the thick of her years-long infertility journey. Keren talks about growing up with seven siblings in "evangelical spaces," how her parents opted her out of sex ed in school; and having one of her ovaries removed, due to a cyst, at the age of 16. She talks about having a chemical pregnancy, followed by a "lot of disappointing cycles." She shares how having timed intercourse is "stressful and not sexy," what happened when they found out her husband had a low sperm count, and pivoting to IVF. She also talks about getting pregnant but receiving the devastating news that her baby was missing part of her cerebellum and measuring about 10 days behind. Keren talks about navigating this very difficult time; the pain of finding out that their baby's heart had stopped beating; and making the decision to give birth to their daughter, Iris, in Labor & Delivery. She also shares her advice on talking to parents who have lost a baby, and where she and her husband are now in their family building journey.

Join us for an enlightening episode of Egg Meets Sperm Podcast featuring the esteemed Alexandria DeVito as we delve into the intricacies of "Essential Tests for Preconception Health." Alexandria expertly navigates essential topics, emphasizing that pre-pregnancy preparation for both reproductive partners is the most effective intervention to enhance fertility and improve the chances of having a healthy baby. Your pre-pregnancy wellness reflects your health status prior to conception, typically assessed within the year beforehand. Comprehensive pre-pregnancy wellness testing includes evaluations of blood status, hormone status, immune status, metabolic status, and nutrient status. Alexandria highlights that you don't have to wait until you try to conceive to gauge your fertility; you can measure your pre-pregnancy wellness in advance. Often, symptoms of underlying health issues emerge late in the disease process, making testing crucial for accurate assessment. She emphasizes that pre-pregnancy wellness testing is beneficial for any individual or couple planning to become pregnant (or undergo ART) within the next twelve months, although starting earlier is always advantageous. Pre-pregnancy preparation should involve both reproductive partners, as fertility is a 50/50 biological equation between the female and male partners. Alexandria underscores that biology disregards the social construct of fertility being solely a female issue, stressing the importance of shared responsibility in the fertility journey. Alexandria DeVito, MS, CNS, is a functional nutritionist who specializes in fertility and preconception health. She is the author of 9 Months Is Not Enough: The Ultimate Pre-pregnancy Checklist to Create a Baby-Ready Body and Build Generational Health. She is also the founder and CEO of Poplin, the first pre-pregnancy wellness company. Prior to founding Poplin, Alexandria worked in management consulting at McKinsey & Company. She holds an MBA from Harvard Business School. She also has a master's degree in nutrition; extensive training as a doula, yoga teacher, and personal trainer; and is an Institute for Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner, all of which inform her approach to pre-pregnancy wellness.

We're digging into genetic testing to improve pregnancy success and prevent or decrease the risk of pregnancy loss. At Fab Fertile, we've been offering genetic/genomic testing as part of our method for years. This genetic testing is very different from the testing you would receive from your conventional doctor. Our genetic testing looks at specific gene variants and makes specific diet/lifestyle recommendations and supplements that can support your genes. Your genes are not your destiny, and there are targeted steps you can take to optimize your fertility and pregnancy success. I'm excited to announce that we have an even better genetic test that helps improve pregnancy outcomes. Designed to improve preconception health, birth outcomes, recurrent miscarriage, gestational diabetes and preeclampsia, the GrowBaby test identifies pathways that need support and helps us determine a customized plan based on your DNA. I'm excited to welcome Helen Gautschi to the podcast. Helen is a registered dietician (SA) and holds a Bachelor of Science in Dietetics (Honours) degree from Stellenbosch University in South Africa. She is also the Head of Research and Development and Education at DNAlife, which offers the GrowBaby genetic test. In this episode, you'll learn: 1) How the GrowBaby test can improve birth outcomes and decrease the risk for preeclampsia and gestational hypertension and diabetes and miscarriage or pregnancy loss 2) How to support each pathway with specific diet/lifestyle and supplement recommendations 3) Why the preconception period is critical and specific steps you can take to improve healthy birth outcomes --- RESOURCES: Fab Fertile Method https://www.fabfertile.com/what-we-do/ Ultimate Guide to Getting Pregnant This Year If You Have Low AMH/High FSH - https://fabfertile.clickfunnels.com/optinvbzjfsii Ultimate Diet for Egg and Sperm Health - https://fabfertile.com/blogs/podcasts/the-ultimate-diet-for-egg-and-sperm-health Want to Get Pregnant This Year - https://fabfertile.com/blogs/podcasts/want-to-get-pregnant-this-year Top Fertility Supplements You Need To Get Pregnant This Year - Access your free guide here at www.suppguideffl.com --- Where should I start to optimize pregnancy success?
