  • Summary

  • In this solo episode, Sarah dives deep into the topic of being "one and done" – and her family’s decision to have only one child. With a mix of personal experience, societal observations, and a dash of humor, Sarah unpacks the complexities of family planning in the face of infertility, societal pressure on what a “normal” family looks like, and personal convictions. What do we chat about? Coming from a large family but being at peace with the idea of having just one child. The brutal journey to parenthood, struggling with infertility and IVF, and what it took to get the one. Reasons for being "one and done". Emotional and physical toll of infertility treatments and pregnancy. Financial considerations (IVF is expensive, y'all!). Feeling complete with their current family dynamic. Addressing common criticisms and questions about only children. The pressure to have more children and how she responds. What else? Sarah's vivid description of the "romantic" process of trying to conceive: Nothing says "sexy time" like peeing on sticks and trying not to pee on your hands. The classic "my dog walker's hairdresser's second cousin's best friend's sister got pregnant no problem after IVF" advice. Because clearly, that's a statistically significant sample size.
