Or in some cases, to not have a baby. Each episode tells a different story about family building, getting real about miscarriages, egg freezing, sperm and egg donation, IUIs, endometriosis, male factor infertility, adoption, surrogacy, genetic testing, single parenting by choice, LGBTQ+ fertility, living childless not by choice, depression, relationship issues, money issues, jealousy, PTSD, and so much more. Ali covers all of the outcomes in this safe, non-judgement zone: the happy endings, the soul-crushingly sad ones, and the ones still in limbo.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-12T18:18:07.711380+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/infertile-af-infertility-and-modern-family-building-through-art-206488"},"episode":{"title":"IUIs, Miscarriages, and Finally, Two Babies: Piper & Mint's Jackie Hutson Shares Her Infertility Journey","slug":"iuis-miscarriages-and-finally-two-babies-piper-mint-s-jackie-hutson-shares-her-infertility-journey","published_at":"2026-04-10T19:00:46+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/infertile-af-infertility-and-modern-family-building-through-art-206488/iuis-miscarriages-and-finally-two-babies-piper-mint-s-jackie-hutson-shares-her-infertility-journey","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/infertile-af-infertility-and-modern-family-building-through-art-206488","url":"https://www.infertileafgroup.com/podcast","audio_url":"https://audio1.redcircle.com/episodes/8786145c-814a-467a-8907-1b98308a7a29/stream.mp3","summary":"Today’s guest is Jackie Hutson, who opens up about experiencing multiple miscarriages, navigating uterine challenges, and the toll infertility can take on your relationship and sense of self.
