With eighty thousand interactions from our NHM community online we know the struggle is real for so many Mothers who want to expand their families and fall pregnant again but experience real trouble. It can be heartbreaking and frustrating when you try so hard but you don't have success time after time. Here we talk Newcastle Hunter Mumma and fertility specialist to Dr Erin Fuller and deep dive into all your options when you've reached the point where you decide you need help.

Dr. Erin Fuller discusses fertility and secondary infertility in this episode. She explains that secondary infertility refers to the struggle to conceive a second or subsequent child after having had a previous pregnancy. Age is a significant factor in fertility, as a woman's egg quality and quantity decline over time. Dr. Fuller also discusses the option of freezing eggs for future use and the importance of diagnosing and addressing any underlying causes of infertility. Emotional and psychological factors can also play a role in fertility, and Dr. Fuller advises patients to not stress about being stressed. Secondary infertility is a common issue that affects many women. Stress and extreme exercise can impact fertility. Weight also plays a role, as both being underweight and overweight can reduce the chances of pregnancy. Emotional and psychological support is crucial for couples struggling with infertility. About 50% of patients who seek help from a fertility specialist are able to achieve pregnancy without undergoing IVF. Endometriosis is a prevalent condition that affects many women and can impact fertility. Diagnosis is challenging and often requires laparoscopy. Treatment options include surgery and medical management to suppress the menstrual cycle. Lifestyle changes and home remedies have limited evidence of effectiveness. Raising awareness and funding for endometriosis research and treatment is important.

OH GOSH! Honestly how many of those photos have you seen of women looking amazing and 'bouncing back' immediately after giving birth. We're standing in the mirror staring at the overflow on the jean shorts going what the?

If it wasn't enough to give up all your time and all your energy then you have to deal with the fact that it's so so hard to deal with your body postpartum. Your body does such a huge job creating a child but once you have that baby it's nothing like it used to be.

When Katherine had her bub she often expressed at work and stored the milk in the fridge she recounts a story of someone commenting 'you wouldn't be able to do that in a male workplace'?! We chat about how one woman can change the world one milk bottle at the time!

Katherine Guilfoyle also discusses heading back to work rather quickly after her first and how she made it happen and we delve into her expertise and help you with parenting after a split. We learn there's no 'one size fits all approach' and also Katherine tells us under the law there is no presumption to 50/50 care of the children. Katherine says people often think about what's fair for the parents in terms of accessing their children but we really need to focus on what is best for our children and how best they will be able to cope and thrive into the future when determining what happens after a split.
