  Katie: In this episode, you'll discover how to make the most of the last three months of 2026 for your fertility without feeling overwhelmed from pressure and urgency.
• 0:13
  Welcome to the Finally Get Pregnant Naturally podcast, the podcast helping women identify the real reasons you haven't conceived or stayed pregnant so you and your partner can finally grow the family of your dreams.
• 0:27
  I'm your host, Dr.
• 0:28
  Katie Wood.
• 0:29
  Let's dive in, shall we?
• 0:31
  Katie: Three things you'll gain from today's episode.
• 0:34
  Katie: While feeling behind as the year winds down is not the same as being out of time, the one reframe that turns the last quarter of the year from a countdown into a fresh path forward, and exactly how to
• 0:50
  Katie: spend these final three months differently than the first nine so they can actually move you toward your desire of finally holding your baby in your arms.
• 1:03
  Katie: So I wanna talk to you today about the pressure and urgency that this time of year can have on a woman who is trying to conceive.
• 1:15
  Katie: I can remember it so vividly, like it was yesterday, when my husband and I started trying for our first.
• 1:23
  Katie: We started in November, and I totally thought we would be announcing to our family at Christmas that we were pregnant.
• 1:33
  Katie: That's how naive I was, and that's how much pressure I put onto the situation.
• 1:38
  Katie: And when it didn't happen, I felt like an utter failure because I know all of you are just ambitious, high-achieving women, which is exactly myself.
• 1:50
  Katie: So when the amount of effort I put in did not equate into the outcome, I was like, "What?
• 1:57
  Katie: What the heck is going on?"
• 2:00
  Katie: 2026 has just flown by, and the calendar is just flipping towards the last quarter, right?
• 2:08
  Katie: And this quiet, heavy math starts running in the back of your mind.
• 2:15
  Katie: "I wanted to be pregnant by the end of this year, but I'm not.
• 2:20
  Katie: I totally thought 2026 was going to be our year."
• 2:24
  Katie: Maybe you started the year full of hope.
• 2:27
  Katie: Maybe you've been through a loss, or more than one since then.
• 2:32
  Katie: And now the year feels like it is literally closing in on you and your dream, and every month left feels like one more month escaping you.
• 2:44
  Katie: So first, before anything else, I want to name this ache that you're feeling, because it is real, it is visceral, and it deserves to be honored and not pushed down, not rushed past.
• 3:01
  Katie: If you're grieving this year that you thought you would've basically been announcing your pregnancy, you're allowed to feel that.
• 3:09
  Katie: Q4 is when that grief tends to peak, especially around the holidays, and pretending it isn't there isn't gonna do you any favors, and it's not gonna make it feel any lighter.
• 3:22
  Katie: So I really wanna offer you a reframe and a different way to look at these last three months, because here's the truth: the clock is not your enemy.
• 3:36
  Katie: It's the approach that needs to change for you.
• 3:41
  Katie: If the way you've been doing your fertility journey for the last nine months, or honestly, probably years, hasn't gotten you where you wanted to be, then the last three months don't have to be a countdown.
• 3:56
  Katie: They're an invitation for you to spend them differently, strategically.
• 4:02
  Katie: This can be the stretch where you finally stop guessing and start actually looking at what is going on inside your own body.
• 4:13
  Katie: That's not pressure.
• 4:15
  Katie: That's permission.
• 4:17
  Katie: Permission to close out this year not by forcing an outcome, but by finally getting answers, so that whenever your positive comes, it's built on something real instead of just one more round of hoping.
• 4:34
  Katie: It's built on a snowball effect.
• 4:36
  Katie: You're going to gain momentum by this.
• 4:40
  Katie: So if you're sitting and listening to this and you're just feeling behind, you feel like you're running out of time, please hear this if you take anything away from this episode: being behind where you hoped to be is
• 4:56
  Katie: not the same as being out of time.
• 5:00
  Katie: The woman who turns things around in the last quarter aren't the ones who panic.
• 5:06
  Katie: They're the ones who strategically and intentionally change what they're doing.
• 5:12
  Katie: Maybe you have to pivot Three months is enough time to start finding real answers, but only if you use them differently than the first part of 2026 or the years before.
• 5:26
  Katie: Remember, it takes about three months for egg and sperm to develop, so now is the perfect time to lay the foundations down to get real answers so you can bring your baby home in 2027.
• 5:42
  Katie: And here's exactly how to do that.
• 5:45
  Katie: This past week, I ran the Fall Fertility Reset Challenge inside the podcast.
• 5:50
  Katie: Seven mini episodes walking you through the six things your doctor's standard fertility workup never checks that reveal the reasons you might not be getting pregnant or staying pregnant.
• 6:04
  Katie: If you missed it, this is your sign.
• 6:06
  Katie: Go back and start from the very first episode of that challenge, episode number 265, and listen through all seven mini episodes.
• 6:17
  Katie: It's the clearest roadmap I've got for you so you can spend these last three months differently, strategically, and intentionally.
• 6:27
  Katie: And here's the timely part that I don't want you to miss out on.
• 6:31

• 7:17
  Katie: So let's bring this episode together.
• 7:19
  Katie: Feeling behind as the year closes is normal, and the grief that comes with it is real.
• 7:25
  Katie: But feeling behind is not the same as actually being out of time.
• 7:29
  Katie: The clock isn't the enemy.
• 7:32
  Katie: The approach is what has to change for you.
• 7:34
  Katie: And the last three months of this year can be a fresh start instead of a urgent pressure-led countdown if you spend them strategically by finally getting answers instead of guessing.
