The Fertility Godmother

There’s one question that can feel surprisingly hard to answer when you’re trying to get pregnant:

Am I supposed to keep waiting… or is it time to get help?

The answer isn’t always just about how many months you’ve been trying.

Your cycle patterns matter.
Your symptoms matter.
Your age matters.
Your history matters.
And that quiet feeling that something deserves a closer look may matter too.

If you’ve been wondering when to seek fertility help, I’ll put the link in the first comment so you can learn the signs that may mean it’s time to look deeper.

Happy Pride Month.
❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

To every person in the LGBTQ+ community who is on a fertility journey right now:

You belong here.
This work has always been for you.

The dream of building a family is one of the most human things there is.

It looks different for everyone.
The path looks different for everyone.

And every single person who walks through my door is here for the same reason:

Love.
That's always enough.

Sending love and light,
Denise, Your Fertility Godmother

If you’ve been trying to get pregnant and still feel stuck…

even though you’re tracking, researching, and doing your best…
it may not be that you need more effort.

It may be that you need the right kind of support.

Fertility coaching can help you better understand your body, make sense of what feels overwhelming, and create a more supportive path forward.

If you’ve ever wondered what a fertility coach actually does and how that support can help, I shared more here:

Fertility care is changing.

More women have access now through insurance and employer benefits.

And that is a beautiful thing.
But access does not always mean clarity, and it doesn't always mean support.

In this episode of The Fertility Godmother Show, Denise is joined by Dr. Fahimeh Sasan for a thoughtful conversation about fertility coverage, delayed motherhood, and the future of fertility care.

This is important!
It’s more than a name change.

It’s a shift toward seeing this condition more fullyand, I hope, seeing the women living with it more fully too. 💞

A more accurate name can create space
for better understanding,
better conversations,
and hopefully, better care.

Share this with someone who needs to know. 💛

I know Mother’s Day isn’t easy for everyone.

For many, it’s a reminder of what’s missing.
What’s been lost.
Or what hasn’t happened yet.

And that’s hard.

If this day feels heavy, you’re not alone.

And I want you to know that
you’re allowed to feel joy and sorrow.
Hope and heartache.
Love and longing.

There’s room for it all.

Whether you’re grieving, waiting, healing, navigating IVF, or mothering in your own way,
I’m holding space for you this Mother’s Day.

If someone comes to mind as you read this, send it to her. ❤️ I hope she feels seen and loved this weekend too.

With hugs and oceans of love,
Denise, Your Fertility Godmother
