The Motherly Podcast
August 6, 2026
Kellie Gerardi was the first person to pump breast milk in zero gravity. But she almost didn’t have her baby. This week on The Motherly Podcast, Kellie opens up about the nine-year journey between her two daughters: multiple IVF cycles, pregnancy losses, and the “girl math” of timing a spaceflight around fertility treatment. She talks with Motherly Co-founder Liz Tenety about destigmatizing infertility, pumping breast milk in microgravity, and the surreal moment when she wasn’t on the same planet as her baby.
