I guess I 83 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 3: fear going out on the limb and doing something and 84 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 3: taking some of those risks. Not working out like that 85 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 3: can sometimes hold you a little bit, just not taking 86 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 3: that not taking that jump. So I guess in terms 87 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 3: of what I'm doing, it's the fear of not already 88 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 3: going hard enough or you know it's all right. Probably yeah, 89 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 3: Maybe it's just standing in front of a crowd and 90 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 3: talking in a podcast with you. 91 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,479 Speaker 2: I mean, no, you're doing brilliant. You're doing brilliant. 92 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: What's one of the most common fertility IVF should I 93 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 1: say misconceptions? 94 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 3: I think the biggest misconception I see is that IVF 95 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 3: is going to get your pregnant every time and it 96 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 3: doesn't matter what they ade you do it. 97 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is. 98 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 1: I've looked now that I'm like less naive to it. 99 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 1: I'm like, no, this is long game. This is quite 100 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,840 Speaker 1: a journey, and I think it would affect you for 101 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: the rest of your life in a good way, especially 102 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 1: if you have a little bambino as absolutely. 103 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 3: I mean, it's always good to get there. And yes, 104 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 3: probably the biggest misconception that IVF will solve every problem. 105 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:52,279 Speaker 2: What's something that's moved you. 106 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 3: I think it was probably the birth of the second child, 107 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 3: because it was such a struggle to get there first one, 108 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 3: so they came along. The second one was such a 109 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 3: huge journey, and actually having a having a sibling for 110 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 3: my older child, because there was a fear that she 111 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 3: would grow up alone with no other siblings. So I 112 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 3: guess having that second child come along was just such 113 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,720 Speaker 3: a wonderful a wonderful thing. Still love my still love 114 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 3: my first. 115 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 2: I love that you.
