A mom's journey through infertility and where to find help

No Bad Days, Women's Wellness Made Simple

It's National Infertility Week! In reverence of this special week and for all the people out there affected by this devastating diagnosis I want to introduce Misee Heiken on the No Bad Days Show. On the show we will hear Misee's story and how she is helping other women through their own struggles with infertility. Misee in her own words “It’s a special week for me with it being national infertility week. It was March 2017 when we got the diagnosis of unexplained infertility. I sat in the doctors office holding my husbands hand and felt completely lost. Doctors offices already have that scary and unfamiliar feel when you’re there trying to figure out the unknown. We went there thinking we would get answers to why we could not carry a baby full-term. Hearing the doctor explain our options this was all too much and all I could do was cry. We had already lost two babies to miscarriage and little did I know that one more miscarriage was on its way. The worst part for me in the whole experience was not feeling like I had anyone to talk to that could relate in some level to what I was going through. There was no support groups in my town and I didn’t know anybody going through infertility. It was through this whole experience that I understand who I could be for someone going through my shoes. Helping to support other women specifically and to listen to their fears and concerns has been the biggest blessing. In the beginning I used to think I wasn’t doing much but after talking to so many women about their struggles I realize we all need this. Someone to just listen. Someone to just hear us when we are at our most vulnerable. Someone who on some level can relate to what we have to say because we all have something that we have to say and that we need someone to hear.”
