#124 When Joy Hurts: The Silent Grief of Being Pregnant After Infertility with Liz Bancroft
Pregnancy after infertility is supposed to feel like relief… but for so many, it feels like fear. In this episode, clinical and counselling psychologist Liz Bancroft helps us unravel the messy, unspoken truth that comes after “good news.” We talk about the terror that replaces joy, the constant checking and overthinking, the grief that travels with you into every scan, and the guilt of not feeling as happy as everyone expects you to be. Liz dives into the identity crisis of moving from patient to pregnant, the heartbreak of leaving the safety of your clinic, the loneliness of trying to stay hopeful, and the way trauma can colour every milestone. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, disconnected, or too afraid to believe this might finally be your moment; this conversation will make you feel seen, understood, and far less alone.
