Manage episode 282696380 series 2642562
In this episode, I speak with mum-of-one, Kate Holland about her journey to becoming a mother to her daughter, Rylee. She and her husband, Jon had a fertility journey through IVF that spanned over eight years before they pursued adoption, first domestically and then internationally. The process of adoption took four years before they brought Rylee home from Thailand.
Today, we discuss the details of their story, including how they coped emotionally going through IVF, their first adoption of a boy from Russia falling through, and eventually being matched with Rylee. We chat through what it was like becoming parents overnight and how they bonded with their daughter. Kate also bravely opens up about her experience with post-adoption depression.
