Sorry to hear about McKayla. It is exciting to hear about your next journey.
Tara,
Thank you so much for being so vulnerable. Me and my husbands journey is so similar to you and Tod’s. We are 4 years in, and have experienced 7 losses. I also have endo and have been seeing an RI, had losses on those protocols but now they are recommending IVIG. I’m seriously considering surrogacy. This podcast has helped me so much.
@mamaTRIEDtx, I’m so sorry for your losses and the struggle. I had 2 losses of genetically normal babies back to back, which led my doc to ivig for me. I would encourage looking into the success of ivig I’m sure you’ve done research but for people like us that have continued unexplained losses ivig seems to be the most successful promising treatment. After 3 years, losing 1 ovary, letrozole, progesterone immediately after ovulation, and 4 monthly ivig infusions (during pregnancy) I’m now 27 weeks pregnant. I’m in contact w another girl that had 10 losses and both and my docs said we only needed 3 monthly ivigs, I was paranoid so asked for an extra one, but she too has also made it farther along than she ever has in pregnancy she’s now 16 weeks, I feel thanks to the ivig infusions. Sending you love ❤️
I was so happy to see a podcast posted. I may have been checking every Tues/Thurs. You guys are fighters. Praying for your next journey...❤
So happy you’re back! Really enjoy your podcasts 😊.
19:13 ohhh Tara 🙏🏻 praying for understanding and healing for you and her - I’m so sorry, I can’t imagine.
So sweet ❤
I'm 73 and had my babies 53 and 42 years ago so I think I am done but I am so enjoying your PodCasts and was so excited when I saw that you are back. Your podcasts are so real, happy, sad, exciting and really informative and I truly enjoy listening to you both. I'm so very sorry about
MyKayla. 6 pregnancies is a lot for anyone and it sounds like her body is trying to tell her to take care of herself. I pray that you find another surrogate for your next little miracle! Thank you for sharing yourselves with us. PS I just love the pictures of Georgie you post on Instagram. She is so adorable and growing so fast. 💖👍🙏💖🙏👍💖👍🙏💖
Well thank you for listening! we love connecting with you all! ❤
I am so deeply sorry about the devatsating news you received about Mikayla; wishing you ALL the best.
Thank you ❤
I'm so glad you're back!!
We are too!
So glad to see you on my RUclips feed! Hope you all enjoyed your holiday and time off with Georgie. You are probably tired because you have a newborn! Sorry to hear about McKayla not being able to be your surrogate but I am sure you will find someone just as amazing for your next miracle!
I've missed you guys, but I have enjoyed watching your journey through the holidays with your beautiful daughter Georgie!! Sorry to hear the news about Makayla🙏❤️
❤
I’m with you, Tara, I had to FORCE myself to stay awake during Oppenheimer.
Awesome podcast Tara 🩷🫶
I found my emotional levels were next level after treatment. I couldn't believe how hard it was for years. Yes I feel this last 6 years has gone in a blink of an eye.
Big hugs thanks for continuing to share fertility struggles and normal everyday life esp going through that with loss of your beloved uncle too. Well. Wishes and prayers for mikayla to get best doctors and quick recover and for many more memories for mikayla and your family. I am sure you will find another beautiful surrogate. Yeah for more stuff. Looking forward to continuing this journey. Thank you for all the personal messages too in a journey that is so lonely it's amazing you care and reach out.
I love all different sets and your banter. X
Thank you….❤❤❤
Yayyyy ❤ so happy you’re back - I’ve missed yall. This whole beginning segment so far 7 minutes in has felt like dinner at a friends house and I’m laughing with yall 😂
Also - guess what?! I’m literally on the road for my third US at my RE’s clinic - in the middle of my 1️⃣st IVF round!! Age 41 and 8 follicles - praying they all stay and grow 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🥰. Retrieval soon❕
Ahhh love that you enjoyed it. And good luck. What an amazing start!! Go eggies go!
Omg it went great thank you Jesus 🙏🏻 my egg count went up to 13!!! Grow babies grow!!!!!
So happy to have a new episode for my plane ride to Nationals!! I need to run into Tara in Columbus to share my love of For All Mankind. I spent October bingeing it and loving it so much, and I was laughing so hard at the character aging comments because they’re so true! I do have to say I found this past season underwhelming compared to the others, but I just loved the early characters so much. Excited to see you’re bringing Georgie to her first skating event!!
On the plane now! And yes to For all mankind! ❤😂
We also binge For All Mankind! And welcome back! I was so worried when there were no podcasts to look forward to. Todd…wondering how you got that one close up shot of your face in this last one?
Praying for you all and hoping mikayla is ok and no matter what will be able to enjoy your journey however it moves forward. I have been glued to your story and love watching you guys interact and now all the beautiful online posts with your beautiful daughter. Thank you for sharing your journey through life with us and just being so real with us. 🤗
Aww thank you!!
Your podcasts are great. So sorry about McKayla. I am glad you can take Georgie to Nationals! Looking forward to your commentary this week! You, Johnny and Terry are the best!
I must know where you got your sweater, Tara! It looks so incredibly cozy and soft.
I will check!! It is a few years old though
Thanks so much for the update. I've missed your podcast these past few weeks. I'm looking forward to watching 2024 Nationals! Glad to hear that you can bring Georgie with you. I'm curious to hear how you juggle motherhood and commentating.
Thank you for listening! We are just winging it the best we can. Just so happy I can take her with!
Welcome back! So sorry about Makayla. But I'm sure you will find another perfect fit again! ♥♥ Me & the hubby LOVE For All Mankind too! What an awesome show.
Ahhh! For all mankind fellow fans! ❤😂
I also think she represents the light at the end of the tunnel in a way. She took a big part in making a long years journey that caused you so much pain turn to light. She represents the end of that pain. A little bit like a saviour or a superhero. I am sure you will find another super hero. But what she represents will be forever because she carried you first child and becoming a mother for the first time especially after so much pain is something unique and irreplaceable
So beautifully worded
I really enjoyed this, my first of your podcasts. But it sure is dark. Can you get some light adjustments going?
We are working on it! The light in the house is not great and always changing! We are new at this but we will tackle it. Thank you so much for listening!!
@@TaraLipinskiUnexpecting My pleasure!! Thank YOU. So pleased to have found you. I struggled with fertility issues years ago, then adopted my now 19
And 20 year old daughters, the joys of my life, After many miscarriages. So thrilled for you and your husband to build your loving long-awaited family. All the best to you 💕💕
I keep imaging McKayla as a doula for your next surrogate.
Ahhhhh! Yes
Would love to see a podcast with ur surrogate!
