Aimee Baron MD, FAAP, is the founder and executive director of I Was Supposed to Have a Baby (IWSTHAB). Its mission is to transform how the Jewish community cares for people struggling with fertility and loss by providing mental health support, educational resources, and a warm, nurturing space through digital platforms, communal convenings, and connections to wider support networks. We comfort people on all fertility journeys, including infertility, miscarriage, stillbirth, infant loss, termination for medical reasons, donor conception, adoption, surrogacy, etc., and envision a supportive, compassionate, and responsive Jewish community where people on a fertility journey feel validated and held.
