Episode 51 - ART/IVF in Pregnancy and Birth

Have you used reporductive technologies to get pregnant, only to be told that your pregnancy and birth are now 'high risk' because of it? We talk about the research around assisted reproductive technology (ART) and if women experience more complicating factors in their pregnancy and birth if they used ART/IVF. We also discuss the research behind the routine practices of additional ultrasounds, extra screening and induction of labour for women who have conceived using ART. Heaps of research in the resource folder on this one!
