When Doctors Said Terminate, She Chose Life w/Alex Gooding | E245 Lila Rose Show

Content creator and mother of eight, Alex Gooding, opens up about her powerful journey through infertility and motherhood. After turning to IVF, Alex and her husband welcomed beautiful children—but were left with the heavy burden of what to do with remaining frozen embryos. Along the way, Alex faced heartbreaking and dangerous pregnancies, including hemorrhaging, accreta, multiple miscarriages, and most recently, a pregnancy where doctors urged her to terminate for her safety and her baby’s.

With courage and faith, Alex chose to continue—and her story captures both the grief and joy that so many mothers experience. In this conversation, Alex also exposes the shortcomings of modern obstetric care and the often-hidden moral dilemmas surrounding IVF.

These are the hard, raw, and honest stories rarely told elsewhere. We hope Alex’s journey inspires you and if it resonates, please share this episode so other mothers facing life-and-death decisions know they are not alone.
