IVF advocate and stillbirth mama Jenna Cuccionilli @jcuccionilli

Jenna Cuccionilli has one of the biggest hearts Ali has encountered in this community, and today, Jenna and Ali are talking about Jenna's 5-plus year infertility journey, including being diagnosed with PCOS at the age of 16, five miscarriages, one stillbirth and how now, they have five embryos left. Jenna gets into the details of her first miscarriage, one week before she and her husband Pete's wedding, why she calls herself "half crunchy," starting with IUIs and moving onto IVF, and why she turned her household into a non-toxic household. She also talks about the devastating loss of their baby, Graham, who was stillborn when she was around 20 weeks pregnant. Jenna gives advice to anyone navigating stillbirth, where they are now on their family building journey, and why her word for 2023 is "breakthrough."

BCL6 is found in more than 50% of women with unexplained infertility and over 65% of women with two or more IVF failures. If positive for the ReceptivaDx test, treatment options can improve the chances for a successful live birth 5 fold!
