Infertility Documentaries?

I enjoy watching documentaries, particularly those pregnancy related. I just wondered if anyone can recommend any documentaries relating to infertility and IVF?

I start Clomid next week and would be good to see some shows/films relating to ART

I can’t recommend any documentaries, but Hannah Vaughan Jones (a CNN newsreader) and her husband very bravely documented an entire round of IVF last Autumn, which is definitely worth a watch. You should be able to find it on YouTube if you google her name and “Our IVF Journey”. There are 9 episodes in total. I also follow her on Instagram.

One more shot on Netflix is worth a watch. Not easy watching though.

Not a documentary but I did enjoy the short you tube videos/series called "how to buy a baby" - a comedy but also accurate portrayal of ivf

I second One More Shot on Netflix. It is hard watching and upsetting so be prepared for tears but definitely worth a watch.

Is that on uk Netflix? I can't find it.

Ignore me, found it

@Cariad2017 just watched all 9 episodes. So brave of her, but great for someone in the public eye to talk more openly about it. Thanks for recommending!

@hoping2018 ah yes I've seen that in the past. Very funny as you said - hope they do another series if they decide to pursue further
