Traveling vast distances to access services is second nature for Raine Holcombe – it’s part and parcel with living in the Northern Territory.  Raised on a crocodile farm in the Victoria River district, Raine developed a love for life on the land which eventually saw her running a contracting business with that took her and her husband to cattle stations across the territory. They spent years living out of a portable set-up, with no fixed address, and trips to town were not only few and far between, but often half a day’s drive away.So, when Raine and her husband Potter found themselves struggling to conceive their first child, the idea of traveling to Darwin for medical assistance wasn’t ideal, but also not incomprehensible. Little did the pair know that they would end up traveling across Australia in search of answers about their infertility.In this episode, Raine speaks candidly about her experience with infertility, and how it took years of persistence, tens of thousands of kilometres, and backing herself each step of the way, to finally get the answers she needed. We actually recorded this episode sitting in the back of Raine’s horse truck while she was at a campdraft, so you will be hearing some very authentic background noises from time to time during this recording.

Remote

The trials and tribulations that come with access to specialist treatments and the like is a massive added hurdle. Raine tries for 4 years (1 year naturally and then 3 with IVF) before falling pregnant with her baby girl after undergoing LMIT and immune protocol but she faces difficulty within that pregnancy too.Join Laksmi on Instagram: @wombroom.podcastIf you're enjoying the show please leave a review!

IVF Cowgirl - with Raine Holcombe (IVF, DQalpha match, remote living, vanishing twin syndrome, ttc again)

This week, I'm thrilled to welcome back Raine Holcombe. Raine shared her incredible struggle with fertility back on Episode 28. It was a heartbreaking journey that took them across the country for treatments, thousands of kilometres away from their remote cattle station in the northern territory. Finally, there was a breakthrough, and an undiagnosed rare genetic condition was discovered. Both Raine and Potter carry the same DQ alpha gene, which causes an embryo to self-abort. They had one option left; a rare treatment in Melbourne... And it worked! Six months ago they welcome a beautiful, healthy baby girl. It was very special to chat to Raine again, and this time, we pick things up from her pregnancy and beyond.SPONSOR: Every family deserves access to quality health care and support; regardless of their location. Sadly, this isn't the case for many rural families, and that's why Maternal Child Health Nurse Rebecca Bradshaw created a child health service delivered entirely online. Her innovative business assists with developmental milestone checks, post natal support, breastfeeding, speech and language, and sleep and settling. Telehealth consultations and referrals are also available.

Episode 77: Raine Holcombe (Part 2)

This week, I chat with Raine Holcombe, a contract musterer from the Northern Territory. I first learned of her incredible journey when she appeared on an episode of Landline exploring infertility in the bush. What she's endured in her quest to become a mum is unbelievable. Almost four heartbreaking years of trying, countless failed embryo transfers and test after test.I've had several mums reach out asking for an episode like this... a deep dive into the world of infertility on the land. I hope through Raine's story we can all better acknowledge, understand and support rural mums who have had to travel down this road. I'm also thrilled to announce that her story has a very happy ending which will give others hope. This is her story https://www.instagram.com/motherlandaustralia
