[Introduction]

In Australia 1 in 6 couples will struggle with infertility. In this week’s episode of The Median Podcast, I’m joined by Wenyi who shares her four plus year journey to conceive her first. In this very personal and intimate story, Wen sums it up best in saying that "You think that you caught this expressway to achieving what you want in a quicker way. But in reality, we (as in Wen and her husband) actually went on a roller coaster of emotions.”
