156. My “Miracle” Baby After 14 Years with Chani Melamed

Written By Aimee Baron
 

On this episode of Talking Away The Taboo, Chani Melamed joins Aimee Baron, MD to talk about...

  • our last conversation, around Mother's day, where she shared her fervent belief that she would one day be a mother...even after 14 years of marriage

  • how 5 months ago, her daughter was born! (I sobbed when she told me). And I knew, that when she was ready, I wanted her to share the story of her pregnancy

  • the years of infertility, this time with the lens of what kinds of things they did to try to have a child

  • numerous medical procedures, doctor appointments, looking into adoption, waiting, waiting, and more waiting, and davening (praying)

  • the anxiety of finally being pregnant, parenting after infertility and some of the comments that people (still) make to her. Sigh.
