28:48 this is how my wife and I felt when friends and our family would announce pregnancies. It was terrible. But we had our miracle IVF baby on 12/12/23. He is a month old today. The only ones who understand are those of us who have been there. My wife and I are throwing all of our love and support to you both! Pineapples and rainbows and prayers your way.
This is such a beautiful and valuable video. I am a 71 yr old who faced infertility issues and it was a time there was not much being discussed openly. I really appreciate you opening yourselves up and bringing this topic to the forefront. Please know that many, many people are joining you in your journey and pulling for you guys. The strength of your relationship and your faith will be so important in your journey. We were finally successful and I'm hoping our good luck carries on to the two of you.
I just love the sincerity and care in Alessios explanation and care in women’s health and his love for Jessi. I’m sending prayers your journey is fruitful in building your family.
Watching this while holding my 1yo for a nap, brings back so many memories and tear jerking. My wife and I went through 2 rounds of IVF 8 years ago. The second attempt my wife had to do by herself while I was stationed in Korea. We were blessed on the second attempt with our son. Three years later we were blessed with our second, who was our rainbow girl after a miscarriage 8 months prior. And now with our third child (2nd girl) we were blessed again after complications during the pregnancy. All of them healthy. What I’m saying is, I know your struggle, and I pray that a nice, well deserving married couple such as yourselves receive the joy of a child. All the prayers for you.
This video made me cry because it gave me hope that there are supportive men out there for women like us who deal with these issues. The relationship you have is beautiful! I love hearing from both of your perspectives. Thank you for sharing this!
I can’t believe people actually asked if you would divorce if it didn’t work. Sad state of the mind of our world now days :( Prayers for you guys. Such a sweet couple and thanks for sharing such an intimate part of your life with others.
I mean it's not an appropriate question no but a valid one. It's a lot to go through mentally and emotionally and I'm sure some people have divorced because of it 😕
As someone who had a stillborn and struggled with getting pregnant I absolutely understand this question. For some couples this situation is too much. In my case just make my relationship with my husband stronger, and after so many prayers, test etc we are finally pregnant again!
Thank you both for sharing so honestly. I am long past child bearing age, but I find your information very helpful to being an understanding and open person to anyone who might be experiencing infertility. Your love and support of each other is inspiring to this old married lady and I hope that everything that you wish for comes to you both. Sending love and positive thoughts your way,
I had two miscarriages while living in Norway and Germany, as an American. It was awful to go through with only my husband and without my family, but the silver lining was that I never got a baby shower invitation. And that was a really dark and ugly time for me, so I am so grateful I didn’t have that on top of it. My rainbow and I wish you both the best of luck!
I am a single parent by choice, and I went through a decade of IVF with both egg and sperm donors due to my own significant medical needs. I had loss after loss (stage IV endometriosis...I feel your pain, girl) and it tested my will to live on a daily basis. But when you're holding your baby (even when they're not genetically your own!), all of this will fade away and you'll find your true bliss. When you've worked this hard to build a family, every single moment is a little more precious. Good wishes coming from NY! ❤
12 yrs ago my daughter and her husband did ivf using one egg, it split in two developing into identical twin girls. Mom was on bed rest for 4 months and they came early but they are strong healthy girls with no issues. Listen to your body if you feel tired, rest and there are no stupid questions when talking to your doctor's. Good luck on your journey.
I remember Jessie at one point when you found out about the endometriosis and what I saw on his face was nothing but love for his wife. I will always remember that.
@ThePasinis thanks, I was just thinking about it because I think addressing someone by their name is respectful. Have a wonderful day, rain here in nc.
I agree with Alessio 100% about how the US does things vs Europe. I'm pretty disgusted with the system here honestly. Too much unnecessary medical treatment and procedures are pushed here but not in other countries. I don't believe that it would be the US doing things better, no, it's a money grab! Also, when you guys mentioned how any abnormal cells can actually be taken care of by the body, that's so cool to hear! I had never heard that before! Sounds like that's also another huge difference between the US and Europe.
As someone who has struggled with fertility struggles and miscarriages, plus an adoption that fell through it was beyond devastating. When my YOUNGER sister was pregnant with her third my husband and I sobbed (we love our nephew dearly though). But after all of the ups and downs, our son had a due date on Easter Sunday and our daughter was due Christmas Day. We lost a baby between our two living children on Christmas morning. I'm rooting for you two ! You two remind me so much of my parents. My mother is from Germany and my dad is from a tiny town in Iowa. They have been married for almost 35 years. I'm so glad that you two have done so much research and advocating for yourself. Jesse - he is a keeper! Having a husband that looks out for you and puts your health needs first is priceless.
Sales, sales, money making in the US and actual down to earth medicine being practiced in Italy. I'm American, but I have to admit the differences I'm seeing you go through. It's the same tests and procedures, and the cost seems 60% higher here.
My sister fell pregnant when she was 38.. due to her age so many tests were done and came back that the baby would be abnormal and recommended that she abort. She refused point blank. The specialists kept on about it being dangerous etc to keep. Well what the specialist did not know that we were praying to an Almighty God who answers prayers. 9 months later a huge healthy baby boy was born who is a top attorney today at the age of 40 and could retire if he wanted to. Straight A student..TRUST IN GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND HE WILL GIVE YOU THE DESIRES OF YOUR HEART. BLESSINGS FROM SOUTH AFRICA 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
In all fairness, my mother had 6 kids from age 39 to 45. Two were twin pregnancies. NOBODY had genetic abnormalities, in fact, today we are all college graduates with masters degrees. My sister is living in Italy in Como. She did IVF there and has had 3 kids. She is 34.
My husband and I struggled with infertility. We finally chose the adoption route to grow our family. Because we were in our 30's we were turned down by state adoption agencies because they had a 10 yr wait list and said we'd be over their age limit by the time we were at the top of the list. We adopted internationally from Korea. Our son will be 35 next week, and our daughter is 31. Best decision ever!
My wife and I did IVF and came out with 11 embryos through the first cycle. Paid $12k for 2 cycles + medicine. We live across the border from Mexico and paid about 2-3k for medicine over in Mex. The IVF company has an office in Tx but the actual transfer of the embryos is done in Mex. We maybe spent 15-16k on our first pregnancy. As far as traveling we maybe spent $200 because we just drove over to mex and back in a single morning to do the transfer. They encouraged us to do 2 embryos at once so we did and everything worked out perfectly so we had a set of twin girls born in 2022. Currently my wife is pregnant again and paid 4-5k for the embryo transfer and gender testing or “eligender” of 6 embryos. We had 9 frozen embryos from the first time so now we have a boy on the way. We were encouraged to transfer 2 embryos again, but we decided 1 was more than enough 🤣. Overall we spent about 20-21k with 2 transfers and 3 babies later (1 on the way)
When I had my endometriosis surgery. I was able to get the nerve clipped to the uterus. It doesn’t help with the heavy bleeding but the pain. I don’t have hardly any pain anymore on my period. I can live my life and not worry about when my period is going to start. I highly recommend doing that! It changed my life! I’ve been down this journey too! I know what you are going through. ❤️
This is so true Jessi and Alessio I lost my baby when I was 5 months pregnant, and at the same time it seemed everyone got pregnant around me. I was so destroyed I can also say therapy truly helped me. I feels these type of videos help everyone be more conscious about couples who are struggling or have come to terms with their situation
This is a tremendous video. 1. having the presence of mind and spirit to produce it and then share it. 2. the wealth of information you gave us from your personal experience is heart felt. I don't know how many takes it took make this video. I don't know if I could have done it. All the Best!!!!!
You will succeed. Just take time to heal. Listen to your body. Eat good food. Laugh a lot. Love each other. Cry together. This is extremely difficult and you will annoy each other. It doesn't mean anything. Forgive each other during this time. I wish all good things for you two.
Lord JESUS, bless this beautiful couple with twins!!!! My husband and I and our children were stationed in Italy via Us NAVY, for 10 years, Italy is our children second home, because that’s where they grew up, and graduated from high school! 3 YEARS IN GAETA ITALY 3 YEARS IN NAPLES ITALY & 4 YEARS IN VICENZA ITALY 🇮🇹💕
I have a severe,nonverbal, developmentally delayed,self injurious autistic son, grown now but due to many miscarriages I was asked if I wanted to do testing while pregnant. I said no because if I didn't want to abort even if my baby had a genetic disability. He was born with autism and I believe he's a gift from God.
Every life given is precious. Period. God loves life and that includes all lives. In the world today, we've lost that basic truth. See the crimes and news, you'll see the end results of devaluing the value of LIFE.
I was 39 in my last pregnancy. The doctor demanded , that I do the down syndrome test. That test had a risk of 1/100 The possibility for the child to have a problem was 1/1000. The risk was too high. The possibility of conceiving a healthier child in the coming years not very strong. I refused the test.
@xristinaxristina766same. I refused genetic testing, but because I was born with a heart defect, and had my 2nd open heart surgery 7 months before (which allowed me to FINALLY have a child @32) .. I of course agreed with that because they’d need to know for delivery to be prepared for my babies needs. Both of my children did not have the defect 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 But in both genetics testings I asked to not tell me if there was any issues such as Down syndrome as I would NOT choose to abort under any circumstances. I waited all my life for the ability to have a child.. because of my heart defect I wasn’t eligible for adoption and there was no way whatsoever that we could afford surrogacy. My children are my EVERYTHING my richest blessings God gave me and I really was settled in the reality of not being a mom at all 😢 so I empathize so much with those with IVF/infertility issues, I know that desperation and pray pray pray for the Pasini family to have a successful outcome 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I’m a single mom of 3 kids and it gets really stressing and lonely feeling but then I remember how blessed I am for being able to have kids so easy even if it’s not an ideal situation but I think of all the women who would do anything to have a child and how lucky I am for not having to experience that feeling. Remember that his plan is always better than ours 😊
I’m so glad to hear you are caring well for yourself by seeing a therapist. You are correct in saying “we are only in charge of ourselves,we have no control of others”
One of my granddaughters went through IVF. They did it here, her insurance paid for it. They had 3 embryos. The first one didn't take. The second one did and she is due in March. Their plan is to wait around a year and do the third. I hope you are successful too. You would be amazing parents.
@user-gi1xr8tf1p I don't know and i wouldn't say if I did know. It's a private company, no union involved. Not sure why you would think a union would matter.
I’m SO excited for you both to become parents, hope the embryo gets implanted well and grows healthy and strong! As a mom of three, (we used to live in CA) I was strongly encouraged to do genetic testing. However, I disagreed and refused the tests. I saw absolutely no point to them and it didn’t matter if a genetic disability or something else negative showed up, I was going to keep that child. It encourages my heart to hear you guys see no need for genetic testing. Praying for you guys as well! Sending love from northern AZ 🥰🥰
Endometriosis is a really bad disease. I has it and part of it is that it causes miscarriages as well. I also has Gilbert's Syndrome which also causes miscarriages. So when I fell pregnant I was super blessed. However after giving birth, the Endometriosis caused a partial hysterectomy anyway. The excessive bleeding caused anemia. But I had my baby. Alessio you are truly a wonderful husband. Bless you both. ❤
Great advice. I had a friend who went thru this - they decided as a couple that they would go every step of the way in the process and not decide to proceed or not at each step. They also decided it would be 100% biologically theirs or 0%. Turns out her eggs were like rocks but happily they ended up adopting a wonderful baby boy.
This is the content you need to make , yes I am here for it. Everyone does travel vlogs and couple lifestyle vlogs but this is not that that talked about! Fortza amici
After my first miscarriage, I had to go to my cousin's baby shower. I had not told anyone outside of my household that I was pregnant because I was worried that something was going to happen so my extended family had no idea what I was going through and I was so angry and sad at the same time. I can't imagine how devastating a miscarriage and infertility must be. Praying that IVF is successful for you both.
I’m adopted and I remember my dad telling me one time how upsetting it was for my mum when everyone kept asking when they were going to have a baby. Back then she was told she was ‘barren’ and it was devastating for her. I always try and be very careful when speaking to people because I can imagine how it must feel although I think the pressure is not as strong these days. All that aside, you seem like a very genuine, warm, caring and generous couple, especially with sharing your private and painful details in the hope of helping others figure it out. You seem so loving and understanding to each other and your love is strong enough to last the course. If you truly reap what you sow then you definitely deserve that baby to shower love upon after all the good you have put out. I continue to keep you in my thoughts and pray for a positive outcome.
It's interesting that you're adopted, do you believe that other children up for adoption deserve loving homes especially from parents who struggle with IVF? I really don't understand this obsession with people wanting to have their own children, eugenics is really gross. I google searched it and IVF literally costs the same amount that it does to adopt.
You both are such a loving couple. I know your journey to have kids has been difficult. I applaud your persistence and openness. Why is it the best parent-to be....have such a challenge having kids. Godspeed. I know you will be successful!!
How Alessio speaks of Jessi, makes me realise what a real man sounds like. Well done. You are an eye-opener for women with men that they don't deserve,
Hope the best for you both. I had a miscarriage early on and decided if pregnant again great, if not it would okay. As much as we would love to have been parents it was a small part of being together. After 23 years together and still just the two of us we realized we were okay and still us. Wishing you both the best and remember it will be okay either way ❤
I suffered through four awful, traumatic miscarriages. And never became a mama. It is something I still grieve…but have come to accept that it just wasn’t meant to be. Sending blessings!
Thank you! I just sent a long answer stating the same. But still it is nice to hear it from someone else! ❤ we are married for 10 years and we do have a nice life. Thank you!
I am always astounded at what IVF costs in the US. My one IVF, with ICSI, with karyotyping, with genetic testing, with freezing, with two frozen transfers, all meds, we paid about €3000 in Germany for everything with amazing staff who felt our sadness and celebrated our successes. I specifically remember paying €8 for a certain medication that cost over $460 in the US. I feel very lucky to have been living here at that time in our lives to having been blessed with two pregnancies/children. You are daily in my thoughts and prayers for an amazing outcome.
No way, your insurance must have covered the rest. We did IVF twice there and paid 8-10k € each time. And they were pretty negative. Later on I got pregnant naturally and sent them an email because they had recommended me donor eggs 😂
My wife and i did this it was super stressful having to shoot her up with hormones etc etc. embryo implantations and miscarriages. Then insurance capped out and we dipped into our savings. 100k later we gave up and got a puppy. The night we brought our pup home she woke me up at 3am with a positive pregnancy test. We have a 3 year old boy now and he’s a gift to everyone who meets him.
Congratulations! If the question is allowed: did your surprise happen without any medical intervention at all? My OB told me that this sometimes happens, too
Much love to you both Jessi & Alessio! You both are such genuinely beautiful people! If anyone has this & is all strength love real but takes this all in your stride with the hope to heal & keep moving forwards so loved & so loving…wow you both are incredible!!!!!!!!!! Prayer’s for your year to be hope filled blessed!!!!!! You both show how we can & should keep going!!!!!!!!!! ❤️ You’ve both got this!!!!!!!!! 💯
God bless you two on your journey. I went through three unsuccessful IUI transfers. Found out I could not conceive due to a specific condition but no matter because we are blessed with two wonderful adopted boys.
❤❤ Jessie & Alessio...you are such special people. In your most difficult moments dealing with infertility, you reach out to help others who may be experiencing this struggle, too. I just believe in my heart that you will be successful in this journey toward bringing your little family into reality. I am praying for you both and sending my love.👶🏻👶🏼👶🏻
Of course everything is up to your doctors and you guys, but I wanted to say that I did fertility treatments and had twins (boy/girl) they are about to be twelve. Best decision ever. 💚
I continue to admire so much how you are sharing so openly and generously. I was going through infertility treatments while all of my nieces and nephews were little and it was sometimes torture to be around them (and their parents). You are so right that you have to choose what is in your own best interests, even when some friends and family might not understand your choices. Thank you again for sharing your journey.
My wife and I went through 8 years of infertility and treatment options and it was a tough road but I’m proud to say we have our little boy and all the waiting, anxiety and pain was so worth it. We had a miscarriage early on and it crushed my wife and I, but God gave us the strength to continue. I’ll be praying for you guys!
First off I want to say that I love you guys and wish you all the best! I would NEVER think that you would have relationship problems nor divorce over this. I see you as a strong couple who sincerely love one another and would work as a team to achieve what you can! At the age of 17, I found out that I had cysts on my ovaries and had all the pain and symptoms that Jess had. It was VERY painful. I had endometriosis. I had to have both tubes and 1 ovary removed. And a few years later I had to have my remaining ovary removed. That was 42 years ago. My fur babies are my children.
I hope everything comes out great for you guys Lots of love from me and my wife we've been married for 35 years No kids But very happy together We are praying for you and your husband May God bless the both of you Through this journey ❤❤🙏🙏🙏
I went through what you guys are going through. I had endometriosis and we’re talking 2 decades ago. Things are different now but not much. So they took out the endometriosis. We went through IVF because we couldn’t get pregnant and it failed. We went to meet with the doctor and he said my egg quality wasn’t very good and that we should consider donor eggs. I was in shock walked outta the Dr office and my husband said let’s go to Las Vegas and we did! So we had gone through IVF I had gotten my IVF failed period. And we went to Las Vegas. We had fun in Las Vegas. We came back and said all right let’s do IVF one more time, but lo and behold they took our blood test and called to say you’re pregnant already! Thank you to Las Vegas and that was my first born my daughter, the doctors office claimed that my body was so filled up with hormones from the IVF the month before that it helped us achieve the pregnancy. My point of this is don’t give up on yourselves!
Thank you for sharing your journey. It is very healing for me to watch you support and encourage each other through this process. I'm sending all the positive vibes for you I can ❤❤❤❤
The most precious thing you have already. Your love. Such supportiveness from both of you for each other. Happens very seldomly. And such a joy to watch, that something what you have, is even possible. Always be aware that you got a very very special gift in life already. And children would only be an extra. But if it’s not meant to be, i hope you can enjoy your life and love nonetheless. All the best to heal from the illness and the pain!!!
Crying listening to you talk about the pain of not conceiving when everyone around you is getting pregnant - etc…. Been there and understand (took 3+ years) Praise God he had a plan and not only 3 children but 4 grandchildren. You do not speak of your faith but I would say “Faith Moves Mountains” and He holds our hands until the Mountain Moves!
What you're doing spreading the information, how it works and your feelings about it is just great! I believe you can help many people. I wish everything will work in the best way for you. I saved eggs at age 36 to be able to have children in future as I didn't have the right partner, and I'm grateful I had this opportunity and information about it.
I know exactly how you feel. I've been trying to get pregnant for 16/17 years. I also have endometriosis and poly cystic ovary syndrome. Both my tubes are blocked. I've just been referred for IVF in the UK. Just waiting for my appointment. Fingers crossed for you both. My doctor won't do anything about my cysts or endometriosis which is confusing and hard because I suffer nearly every day with pain. Looking forward to watching your Journey. All the best! ❤
You guys are incredible! It is so brave to openly talk about this and I love ❤️ you for it. It is not an issue I have encountered but I appreciate your openness
Hi, I’m following you for a very long time since that I’m also a foreigner in Italy and married to an Italian :) interestingly, we had to pass from IVF also and I’m surprised that I found this video. I wanted to write this comment because I also have endometriosis and got pregnant with a PGT tested embryo. My clinic recommended PGT to understand the source of the problem if the transfer fails to implement ( chromosome or uterine problem ). Luckily I got pregnant 🤰at the first transfer that we got from second egg retrieval. I wish you guys good luck ❤️
People who ask questions like those of divorce obviously they don't know you both. This couple will be together till God separates them and I am so looking forward to seeing their children and them living in Italy. JS.
All the best on this difficult journey. We went through infertility treatments to have our boys. It's a rough road but when successful completely worth it.
Yes, i found it helpful talking with friends, mum. A lot of emotions involved, we would build our hope up during treatment, then when it didn.t work felt gutted for about a week then started thinking about the next treatment and hope slowly build up again. After 5 goes we have the most beautiful daughter we could ever dream of. God's blessing and prayers help too.
I Wish you all the luck in the world🙏🏼 you got this❤️ Stay positive, try enjoy life, so your body relaxes. We have been through it and it’s hard. All the shots I got gave me only 2 eggs and a lot of non mature ones, they stopped at day 4. Progressing. I was devastated. I talked to the clinic. And we decided to take a two month break because of the stress and started a new cycle and then I got four blastocyst.1 was put back, but didn’t stick. I felt hopeless. But, gave it a go again with 1 of the 3 frozen, and now I’m now 7 weeks pregnant. It’s been a hard road. And still can’t believe it and I’m afraid something bad will happen. It’s nice to see that you to love each other and support each other. My husband does the same thing for me and that meant/means a lot mentally.
Prayers and love to you. I know what ever happens, your love for each other will get you through. Everything in life is about love. Everything and you both have exactly what you need. LOVE. Bless you both. ❤️
European standard IVF is healthier in terms of medicines. they don't give you medicine that isn't necessary. It is very expensive in Europe, but they are thorough. I really hope that it works for you just as it did for a friend of mine, she also did this and she was pregnant the second time, unfortunately the first time did not go well. I hope that everything goes well for you. I sending out prayers for you guys.
You have such a lovely relationship you both got this and I’m praying that a lovely healthy baby comes you’re way sending love from Ireland 🇮🇪 I have a daughter Ciara she has a form of autism I find it hard to have children so she was a miracle. And yours is coming ❤
You are a beautiful couple. I am so sorry you are going through this pain, physically and mentally. I am praying for love, peace, and joy in your journey. ❤
I had to have a full hysterectomy due to my endometriosis. This was not until I was in my upper 30s and had already had a child who was in his upper teens at this point and knew that I wasn't having more kids. The decision for the hysterectomy was made when I had a golf ball size cyst that was not only very painful but tested positive for cancer markers.
You have a beautiful marriage and are so blessed to have each other. Anyone watching your videos that may be facing infertility challenges are also blessed that you are sharing your story with practical and emotional information. God bless you both. Praying for your successful surgery, recovery and conception. ❤
I'm so thankful for your informative videos about this IVF. I hope only good for your journey❤. Me and my husband have also started our own IVF journey, but in our case qmy husband probably can't have biological children. (he has chromosome syndrome that causes that.) We are very early in our journey, and that's why it has been so nice to watch your videos to see what we might have up against. In few months ,he is going in surgery, and if everything goes well, my turn is soon after. If not, I might have to wait maybe half a year or longer that our turn comes in the doner line. The waiting part is the hardest thing I think.
Ragazzi, siete troppo belli. Tutti i vostri consigli sono strepitosi. Tanti auguri. Un in bocca al lupo per l'intervento di Jessi. Che Dio vi benedica. Siete una coppia speciale.😍
Good luck on everything! When my husband and I were thinking of names we had the opposite problem, endless boy names we agreed on, almost no girl names that both liked. Also, any guy feeling awkward giving a sperm sample, just remember everyone in that clinic either works there and is thinking about a to do list or their next meal, or they are thinking of the reason they are there to give a sample/are nervous too. Nobody cares about your dealings but you.
You both are so precious!!! Your love and concern for each other is lovely to watch. I pray that everything goes well and your children will be blessed to have you as their parents. May God bless you both. After I wrote this comment, one of your answers touched my soul, and I must share it with you. When Jessi said that she knew she had to work on herself about responding to others when babies are in the conversation…..I have felt so anxious about my responses to others since my son passed away close to Christmas. Jessi, you gave me the courage to realize that I must work on myself and understand that others don’t know what to say….so thank you for showing this almost 67 year old mother how to care about myself and others. Thank you.
You two are precious and your love for one another is extremely special. Thank you for all the valuable information, especially how therapy helped you wrap your head around your situation such that you are better able to cope now. Know that we are all praying and rooting for you, no matter the outcome. Sending love to you both.
28:48 this is how my wife and I felt when friends and our family would announce pregnancies. It was terrible. But we had our miracle IVF baby on 12/12/23. He is a month old today. The only ones who understand are those of us who have been there. My wife and I are throwing all of our love and support to you both! Pineapples and rainbows and prayers your way.
This is such a beautiful and valuable video. I am a 71 yr old who faced infertility issues and it was a time there was not much being discussed openly. I really appreciate you opening yourselves up and bringing this topic to the forefront. Please know that many, many people are joining you in your journey and pulling for you guys. The strength of your relationship and your faith will be so important in your journey. We were finally successful and I'm hoping our good luck carries on to the two of you.
I just love the sincerity and care in Alessios explanation and care in women’s health and his love for Jessi. I’m sending prayers your journey is fruitful in building your family.
You are already great parents for what you’re going through, no matter the number of children you produce.
Watching this while holding my 1yo for a nap, brings back so many memories and tear jerking. My wife and I went through 2 rounds of IVF 8 years ago. The second attempt my wife had to do by herself while I was stationed in Korea. We were blessed on the second attempt with our son. Three years later we were blessed with our second, who was our rainbow girl after a miscarriage 8 months prior. And now with our third child (2nd girl) we were blessed again after complications during the pregnancy. All of them healthy.
What I’m saying is, I know your struggle, and I pray that a nice, well deserving married couple such as yourselves receive the joy of a child. All the prayers for you.
This video made me cry because it gave me hope that there are supportive men out there for women like us who deal with these issues. The relationship you have is beautiful! I love hearing from both of your perspectives. Thank you for sharing this!
I can’t believe people actually asked if you would divorce if it didn’t work. Sad state of the mind of our world now days :(
Prayers for you guys. Such a sweet couple and thanks for sharing such an intimate part of your life with others.
That surprised me too.
I mean it's not an appropriate question no but a valid one. It's a lot to go through mentally and emotionally and I'm sure some people have divorced because of it 😕
As someone who had a stillborn and struggled with getting pregnant I absolutely understand this question. For some couples this situation is too much. In my case just make my relationship with my husband stronger, and after so many prayers, test etc we are finally pregnant again!
Ciao ragazzi!! In bocco al lupo!! ❤
It is a bit a weird question you are not only together to get children
Thank you both for sharing so honestly. I am long past child bearing age, but I find your information very helpful to being an understanding and open person to anyone who might be experiencing infertility. Your love and support of each other is inspiring to this old married lady and I hope that everything that you wish for comes to you both. Sending love and positive thoughts your way,
I had two miscarriages while living in Norway and Germany, as an American. It was awful to go through with only my husband and without my family, but the silver lining was that I never got a baby shower invitation. And that was a really dark and ugly time for me, so I am so grateful I didn’t have that on top of it. My rainbow and I wish you both the best of luck!
I am a single parent by choice, and I went through a decade of IVF with both egg and sperm donors due to my own significant medical needs. I had loss after loss (stage IV endometriosis...I feel your pain, girl) and it tested my will to live on a daily basis. But when you're holding your baby (even when they're not genetically your own!), all of this will fade away and you'll find your true bliss. When you've worked this hard to build a family, every single moment is a little more precious. Good wishes coming from NY! ❤
I can’t get over how supportive Alessio is. He’s definitely a wonderful man. You are so lucky Jess. I’m hoping this works for you. ❤️
12 yrs ago my daughter and her husband did ivf using one egg, it split in two developing into identical twin girls. Mom was on bed rest for 4 months and they came early but they are strong healthy girls with no issues. Listen to your body if you feel tired, rest and there are no stupid questions when talking to your doctor's. Good luck on your journey.
I remember Jessie at one point when you found out about the endometriosis and what I saw on his face was nothing but love for his wife. I will always remember that.
you mean Alessio :)
@ThePasinis lol oops sorry old lady here. I fixed it.
ahahha don't worry! a big hug from jessi and Alessio ❤️
@ThePasinis thanks, I was just thinking about it because I think addressing someone by their name is respectful. Have a wonderful day, rain here in nc.
I agree with Alessio 100% about how the US does things vs Europe. I'm pretty disgusted with the system here honestly. Too much unnecessary medical treatment and procedures are pushed here but not in other countries. I don't believe that it would be the US doing things better, no, it's a money grab!
Also, when you guys mentioned how any abnormal cells can actually be taken care of by the body, that's so cool to hear! I had never heard that before! Sounds like that's also another huge difference between the US and Europe.
that's right, alessio - your love for each other comes first. ❤ much love to you both from PA.
That for me was special!
As someone who has struggled with fertility struggles and miscarriages, plus an adoption that fell through it was beyond devastating. When my YOUNGER sister was pregnant with her third my husband and I sobbed (we love our nephew dearly though). But after all of the ups and downs, our son had a due date on Easter Sunday and our daughter was due Christmas Day. We lost a baby between our two living children on Christmas morning.
I'm rooting for you two ! You two remind me so much of my parents. My mother is from Germany and my dad is from a tiny town in Iowa. They have been married for almost 35 years.
I'm so glad that you two have done so much research and advocating for yourself. Jesse - he is a keeper! Having a husband that looks out for you and puts your health needs first is
priceless.
Sales, sales, money making in the US and actual down to earth medicine being practiced in Italy. I'm American, but I have to admit the differences I'm seeing you go through. It's the same tests and procedures, and the cost seems 60% higher here.
My sister fell pregnant when she was 38.. due to her age so many tests were done and came back that the baby would be abnormal and recommended that she abort. She refused point blank. The specialists kept on about it being dangerous etc to keep. Well what the specialist did not know that we were praying to an Almighty God who answers prayers. 9 months later a huge healthy baby boy was born who is a top attorney today at the age of 40 and could retire if he wanted to. Straight A student..TRUST IN GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND HE WILL GIVE YOU THE DESIRES OF YOUR HEART. BLESSINGS FROM SOUTH AFRICA 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Wow, praise God. Truly a miracle.
@eeg122 absolutely ..God is good all the time, especially what she had to endure during those 9 months was horrific but GOD came thru
God is so good!
In all fairness, my mother had 6 kids from age 39 to 45. Two were twin pregnancies. NOBODY had genetic abnormalities, in fact, today we are all college graduates with masters degrees. My sister is living in Italy in Como. She did IVF there and has had 3 kids. She is 34.
Lol
My husband and I struggled with infertility. We finally chose the adoption route to grow our family. Because we were in our 30's we were turned down by state adoption agencies because they had a 10 yr wait list and said we'd be over their age limit by the time we were at the top of the list. We adopted internationally from Korea. Our son will be 35 next week, and our daughter is 31. Best decision ever!
My wife and I did IVF and came out with 11 embryos through the first cycle. Paid $12k for 2 cycles + medicine. We live across the border from Mexico and paid about 2-3k for medicine over in Mex. The IVF company has an office in Tx but the actual transfer of the embryos is done in Mex. We maybe spent 15-16k on our first pregnancy. As far as traveling we maybe spent $200 because we just drove over to mex and back in a single morning to do the transfer. They encouraged us to do 2 embryos at once so we did and everything worked out perfectly so we had a set of twin girls born in 2022. Currently my wife is pregnant again and paid 4-5k for the embryo transfer and gender testing or “eligender” of 6 embryos. We had 9 frozen embryos from the first time so now we have a boy on the way. We were encouraged to transfer 2 embryos again, but we decided 1 was more than enough 🤣. Overall we spent about 20-21k with 2 transfers and 3 babies later (1 on the way)
When I had my endometriosis surgery. I was able to get the nerve clipped to the uterus. It doesn’t help with the heavy bleeding but the pain. I don’t have hardly any pain anymore on my period. I can live my life and not worry about when my period is going to start. I highly recommend doing that! It changed my life!
I’ve been down this journey too! I know what you are going through. ❤️
This is so true Jessi and Alessio I lost my baby when I was 5 months pregnant, and at the same time it seemed everyone got pregnant around me. I was so destroyed I can also say therapy truly helped me. I feels these type of videos help everyone be more conscious about couples who are struggling or have come to terms with their situation
This is a tremendous video. 1. having the presence of mind and spirit to produce it and then share it. 2. the wealth of information you gave us from your personal experience is heart felt. I don't know how many takes it took make this video. I don't know if I could have done it. All the Best!!!!!
You will succeed. Just take time to heal. Listen to your body. Eat good food. Laugh a lot. Love each other. Cry together. This is extremely difficult and you will annoy each other. It doesn't mean anything. Forgive each other during this time. I wish all good things for you two.
Lord JESUS, bless this beautiful couple with twins!!!! My husband and I and our children were stationed in Italy via Us NAVY, for 10 years, Italy is our children second home, because that’s where they grew up, and graduated from high school!
3 YEARS IN GAETA ITALY
3 YEARS IN NAPLES ITALY &
4 YEARS IN VICENZA ITALY 🇮🇹💕
I have a severe,nonverbal, developmentally delayed,self injurious autistic son, grown now but due to many miscarriages I was asked if I wanted to do testing while pregnant. I said no because if I didn't want to abort even if my baby had a genetic disability. He was born with autism and I believe he's a gift from God.
Every life given is precious. Period. God loves life and that includes all lives. In the world today, we've lost that basic truth. See the crimes and news, you'll see the end results of devaluing the value of LIFE.
I also don’t think there’s any genetic testing that can detect for autism anyways. Genetic testing cannot check for everything I think.
I was 39 in my last pregnancy.
The doctor demanded , that I do the down syndrome test.
That test had a risk of 1/100
The possibility for the child to have a problem was 1/1000.
The risk was too high.
The possibility of conceiving a healthier child in the coming years not very strong.
I refused the test.
God bless you for powering through with the Lord’s help. This is not our home, the perfect is on the other side in Jesus’ arms. ❤❤❤
@xristinaxristina766same.
I refused genetic testing, but because I was born with a heart defect, and had my 2nd open heart surgery 7 months before (which allowed me to FINALLY have a child @32) .. I of course agreed with that because they’d need to know for delivery to be prepared for my babies needs.
Both of my children did not have the defect 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
But in both genetics testings I asked to not tell me if there was any issues such as Down syndrome as I would NOT choose to abort under any circumstances. I waited all my life for the ability to have a child.. because of my heart defect I wasn’t eligible for adoption and there was no way whatsoever that we could afford surrogacy.
My children are my EVERYTHING my richest blessings God gave me and I really was settled in the reality of not being a mom at all 😢 so I empathize so much with those with IVF/infertility issues, I know that desperation and pray pray pray for the Pasini family to have a successful outcome 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I’m a single mom of 3 kids and it gets really stressing and lonely feeling but then I remember how blessed I am for being able to have kids so easy even if it’s not an ideal situation but I think of all the women who would do anything to have a child and how lucky I am for not having to experience that feeling. Remember that his plan is always better than ours 😊
I’m so glad to hear you are caring well for yourself by seeing a therapist. You are correct in saying “we are only in charge of ourselves,we have no control of others”
One of my granddaughters went through IVF. They did it here, her insurance paid for it. They had 3 embryos. The first one didn't take. The second one did and she is due in March. Their plan is to wait around a year and do the third. I hope you are successful too. You would be amazing parents.
May I ask who her employer is? My husband belongs to one of the largest Unions in the United States - if not the world and they do not cover IVF.
@user-gi1xr8tf1p I have no idea and wouldn't say if I knew. It's not union, that I do know. Thank goodness.
@user-gi1xr8tf1p I don't know and i wouldn't say if I did know. It's a private company, no union involved. Not sure why you would think a union would matter.
I’m SO excited for you both to become parents, hope the embryo gets implanted well and grows healthy and strong! As a mom of three, (we used to live in CA) I was strongly encouraged to do genetic testing. However, I disagreed and refused the tests. I saw absolutely no point to them and it didn’t matter if a genetic disability or something else negative showed up, I was going to keep that child. It encourages my heart to hear you guys see no need for genetic testing. Praying for you guys as well! Sending love from northern AZ 🥰🥰
Endometriosis is a really bad disease. I has it and part of it is that it causes miscarriages as well. I also has Gilbert's Syndrome which also causes miscarriages. So when I fell pregnant I was super blessed. However after giving birth, the Endometriosis caused a partial hysterectomy anyway. The excessive bleeding caused anemia. But I had my baby. Alessio you are truly a wonderful husband. Bless you both. ❤
Great advice. I had a friend who went thru this - they decided as a couple that they would go every step of the way in the process and not decide to proceed or not at each step. They also decided it would be 100% biologically theirs or 0%. Turns out her eggs were like rocks but happily they ended up adopting a wonderful baby boy.
This is the content you need to make , yes I am here for it. Everyone does travel vlogs and couple lifestyle vlogs but this is not that that talked about! Fortza amici
After my first miscarriage, I had to go to my cousin's baby shower. I had not told anyone outside of my household that I was pregnant because I was worried that something was going to happen so my extended family had no idea what I was going through and I was so angry and sad at the same time. I can't imagine how devastating a miscarriage and infertility must be. Praying that IVF is successful for you both.
God made the womb in such an amazing way. The fact that the placenta can take on the abnormal cells is a miracle in and of itself. Praying for y’all!
14:45 HAIRfare ✈️ 😂
I’m adopted and I remember my dad telling me one time how upsetting it was for my mum when everyone kept asking when they were going to have a baby. Back then she was told she was ‘barren’ and it was devastating for her. I always try and be very careful when speaking to people because I can imagine how it must feel although I think the pressure is not as strong these days. All that aside, you seem like a very genuine, warm, caring and generous couple, especially with sharing your private and painful details in the hope of helping others figure it out. You seem so loving and understanding to each other and your love is strong enough to last the course. If you truly reap what you sow then you definitely deserve that baby to shower love upon after all the good you have put out. I continue to keep you in my thoughts and pray for a positive outcome.
It's interesting that you're adopted, do you believe that other children up for adoption deserve loving homes especially from parents who struggle with IVF? I really don't understand this obsession with people wanting to have their own children, eugenics is really gross. I google searched it and IVF literally costs the same amount that it does to adopt.
@ Yes I believe all children up for adoption deserve loving homes from whomever wants to adopt them and offers a safe caring environment.
You both are such a loving couple. I know your journey to have kids has been difficult. I applaud your persistence and openness. Why is it the best parent-to be....have such a challenge having kids. Godspeed. I know you will be successful!!
Come sempre ragazzi: forza e coraggio! Continuate a volervi bene e tutto sarà più facile!
How Alessio speaks of Jessi, makes me realise what a real man sounds like. Well done. You are an eye-opener for women with men that they don't deserve,
I have been watching you both since your trip to NYC. My sister-in-law had 2 beautiful babies via IVF and I wish you both the same success.
You both are in my prayers, I admire your strength to share your journey. When the time comes for you both to become parents you will be the best!
Hope the best for you both. I had a miscarriage early on and decided if pregnant again great, if not it would okay. As much as we would love to have been parents it was a small part of being together. After 23 years together and still just the two of us we realized we were okay and still us. Wishing you both the best and remember it will be okay either way ❤
I suffered through four awful, traumatic miscarriages. And never became a mama. It is something I still grieve…but have come to accept that it just wasn’t meant to be. Sending blessings!
Thank you! I just sent a long answer stating the same. But still it is nice to hear it from someone else! ❤ we are married for 10 years and we do have a nice life. Thank you!
I am always astounded at what IVF costs in the US. My one IVF, with ICSI, with karyotyping, with genetic testing, with freezing, with two frozen transfers, all meds, we paid about €3000 in Germany for everything with amazing staff who felt our sadness and celebrated our successes. I specifically remember paying €8 for a certain medication that cost over $460 in the US. I feel very lucky to have been living here at that time in our lives to having been blessed with two pregnancies/children. You are daily in my thoughts and prayers for an amazing outcome.
No way, your insurance must have covered the rest. We did IVF twice there and paid 8-10k € each time. And they were pretty negative. Later on I got pregnant naturally and sent them an email because they had recommended me donor eggs 😂
My wife and i did this it was super stressful having to shoot her up with hormones etc etc. embryo implantations and miscarriages. Then insurance capped out and we dipped into our savings. 100k later we gave up and got a puppy. The night we brought our pup home she woke me up at 3am with a positive pregnancy test. We have a 3 year old boy now and he’s a gift to everyone who meets him.
Congratulations! If the question is allowed: did your surprise happen without any medical intervention at all? My OB told me that this sometimes happens, too
I'm praying all the time for you both! ❤
Much love to you both Jessi & Alessio! You both are such genuinely beautiful people! If anyone has this & is all strength love real but takes this all in your stride with the hope to heal & keep moving forwards so loved & so loving…wow you both are incredible!!!!!!!!!! Prayer’s for your year to be hope filled blessed!!!!!! You both show how we can & should keep going!!!!!!!!!! ❤️ You’ve both got this!!!!!!!!! 💯
God bless you two on your journey. I went through three unsuccessful IUI transfers. Found out I could not conceive due to a specific condition but no matter because we are blessed with two wonderful adopted boys.
❤❤ Jessie & Alessio...you are such special people. In your most difficult moments dealing with infertility, you reach out to help others who may be experiencing this struggle, too. I just believe in my heart that you will be successful in this journey toward bringing your little family into reality. I am praying for you both and sending my love.👶🏻👶🏼👶🏻
Of course everything is up to your doctors and you guys, but I wanted to say that I did fertility treatments and had twins (boy/girl) they are about to be twelve. Best decision ever. 💚
I continue to admire so much how you are sharing so openly and generously. I was going through infertility treatments while all of my nieces and nephews were little and it was sometimes torture to be around them (and their parents). You are so right that you have to choose what is in your own best interests, even when some friends and family might not understand your choices. Thank you again for sharing your journey.
My wife and I went through 8 years of infertility and treatment options and it was a tough road but I’m proud to say we have our little boy and all the waiting, anxiety and pain was so worth it. We had a miscarriage early on and it crushed my wife and I, but God gave us the strength to continue. I’ll be praying for you guys!
I hope you have a healthy baby!!! Can't wait! ❤❤❤ you guys are the most authentic people on the internet!
First off I want to say that I love you guys and wish you all the best!
I would NEVER think that you would have relationship problems nor divorce over this.
I see you as a strong couple who sincerely love one another and would work as a team to achieve what you can!
At the age of 17, I found out that I had cysts on my ovaries and had all the pain and symptoms that Jess had. It was VERY painful. I had endometriosis.
I had to have both tubes and 1 ovary removed.
And a few years later I had to have my remaining ovary removed.
That was 42 years ago.
My fur babies are my children.
I hope everything comes out great for you guys Lots of love from me and my wife we've been married for 35 years No kids But very happy together We are praying for you and your husband May God bless the both of you Through this journey ❤❤🙏🙏🙏
I went through what you guys are going through. I had endometriosis and we’re talking 2 decades ago. Things are different now but not much. So they took out the endometriosis. We went through IVF because we couldn’t get pregnant and it failed. We went to meet with the doctor and he said my egg quality wasn’t very good and that we should consider donor eggs. I was in shock walked outta the Dr office and my husband said let’s go to Las Vegas and we did!
So we had gone through IVF I had gotten my IVF failed period. And we went to Las Vegas. We had fun in Las Vegas. We came back and said all right let’s do IVF one more time, but lo and behold they took our blood test and called to say you’re pregnant already! Thank you to Las Vegas and that was my first born my daughter, the doctors office claimed that my body was so filled up with hormones from the IVF the month before that it helped us achieve the pregnancy.
My point of this is don’t give up on yourselves!
Thank you for sharing your journey. It is very healing for me to watch you support and encourage each other through this process. I'm sending all the positive vibes for you I can ❤❤❤❤
I feel like you guys will always know that you will always be there for one another 😊
The most precious thing you have already. Your love. Such supportiveness from both of you for each other. Happens very seldomly. And such a joy to watch, that something what you have, is even possible. Always be aware that you got a very very special gift in life already. And children would only be an extra. But if it’s not meant to be, i hope you can enjoy your life and love nonetheless. All the best to heal from the illness and the pain!!!
Crying listening to you talk about the pain of not conceiving when everyone around you is getting pregnant - etc…. Been there and understand (took 3+ years) Praise God he had a plan and not only 3 children but 4 grandchildren. You do not speak of your faith but I would say “Faith Moves Mountains” and He holds our hands until the Mountain Moves!
What you're doing spreading the information, how it works and your feelings about it is just great! I believe you can help many people. I wish everything will work in the best way for you. I saved eggs at age 36 to be able to have children in future as I didn't have the right partner, and I'm grateful I had this opportunity and information about it.
I know exactly how you feel. I've been trying to get pregnant for 16/17 years. I also have endometriosis and poly cystic ovary syndrome. Both my tubes are blocked. I've just been referred for IVF in the UK. Just waiting for my appointment. Fingers crossed for you both. My doctor won't do anything about my cysts or endometriosis which is confusing and hard because I suffer nearly every day with pain. Looking forward to watching your Journey. All the best! ❤
Bless your hearts! Thank you for this q & a. The people you are helping by sharing is a blessing. ❤❤
You guys are incredible! It is so brave to openly talk about this and I love ❤️ you for it. It is not an issue I have encountered but I appreciate your openness
The difference in prices was shocking ..positive thoughts for the rest of your journey ❤.
Hi, I’m following you for a very long time since that I’m also a foreigner in Italy and married to an Italian :) interestingly, we had to pass from IVF also and I’m surprised that I found this video. I wanted to write this comment because I also have endometriosis and got pregnant with a PGT tested embryo. My clinic recommended PGT to understand the source of the problem if the transfer fails to implement ( chromosome or uterine problem ). Luckily I got pregnant 🤰at the first transfer that we got from second egg retrieval. I wish you guys good luck ❤️
So much mature, thoughtful, honest wisdom in this video. You are exceptional people. Thank you for this powerful example of love.
They are tbe best couple which i saw in internet. OMG, i love this people. Full of love, supports, and take care for each otchers. OMG. God bles them.
People who ask questions like those of divorce obviously they don't know you both. This couple will be together till God separates them and I am so looking forward to seeing their children and them living in Italy. JS.
Never loose FAITH 🕯🕊🤍🕊🕯
All the best on this difficult journey. We went through infertility treatments to have our boys. It's a rough road but when successful completely worth it.
I was told by my surgeon that I was extremely lucky to have my three children. Cause I had extreme endometriosis throughout my entire abdomen.
Yes, i found it helpful talking with friends, mum. A lot of emotions involved, we would build our hope up during treatment, then when it didn.t work felt gutted for about a week then started thinking about the next treatment and hope slowly build up again. After 5 goes we have the most beautiful daughter we could ever dream of. God's blessing and prayers help too.
Something you said several videos ago has stuck with me. All you need is one Lion ….. Praying for that one 🦁
I Wish you all the luck in the world🙏🏼 you got this❤️
Stay positive, try enjoy life, so your body relaxes.
We have been through it and it’s hard. All the shots I got gave me only 2 eggs and a lot of non mature ones, they stopped at day 4. Progressing. I was devastated.
I talked to the clinic. And we decided to take a two month break because of the stress and started a new cycle and then I got four blastocyst.1 was put back, but didn’t stick. I felt hopeless. But, gave it a go again with 1 of the 3 frozen, and now I’m now 7 weeks pregnant. It’s been a hard road. And still can’t believe it and I’m afraid something bad will happen.
It’s nice to see that you to love each other and support each other. My husband does the same thing for me and that meant/means a lot mentally.
Thanks! Praying for you both. You are going to make wonderful parents. God bless you.
You are so kind. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts ♥️ God Bless you too.
You two are so stinking CUTE! I wish you much luck with your treatment. You will make wonderful parents! What a lucky child you will have!
Prayers and love to you. I know what ever happens, your love for each other will get you through. Everything in life is about love. Everything and you both have exactly what you need. LOVE. Bless you both. ❤️
Just the sweetest couple! ❤ Praying for y'all.
The love you have toward each other is so beautiful. I really Pray that you are able to bring a child into the world 😊.
I love you guys and I’m praying for you. I had infertility issues, I know how difficult this is. Sharing your experience is helpful to others.
European standard IVF is healthier in terms of medicines. they don't give you medicine that isn't necessary. It is very expensive in Europe, but they are thorough. I really hope that it works for you just as it did for a friend of mine, she also did this and she was pregnant the second time, unfortunately the first time did not go well. I hope that everything goes well for you. I sending out prayers for you guys.
You have such a lovely relationship you both got this and I’m praying that a lovely healthy baby comes you’re way sending love from Ireland 🇮🇪 I have a daughter Ciara she has a form of autism I find it hard to have children so she was a miracle. And yours is coming ❤
You are a beautiful couple. I am so sorry you are going through this pain, physically and mentally. I am praying for love, peace, and joy in your journey. ❤
I had to have a full hysterectomy due to my endometriosis. This was not until I was in my upper 30s and had already had a child who was in his upper teens at this point and knew that I wasn't having more kids. The decision for the hysterectomy was made when I had a golf ball size cyst that was not only very painful but tested positive for cancer markers.
You have a beautiful marriage and are so blessed to have each other. Anyone watching your videos that may be facing infertility challenges are also blessed that you are sharing your story with practical and emotional information. God bless you both. Praying for your successful surgery, recovery and conception. ❤
I love how much you love each other. Y’all are adorable, and it’s a big reason why I follow you. ❤❤
I just love you two. Such a beautiful relationship. I pray your IVF is successful because you will be amazing parents! ❤
I am sorry for your loss and hope you have 2 beautiful children together !❤
That was so much for you all to share. Thanks for giving of your selves.
I'm so thankful for your informative videos about this IVF. I hope only good for your journey❤.
Me and my husband have also started our own IVF journey, but in our case qmy husband probably can't have biological children. (he has chromosome syndrome that causes that.) We are very early in our journey, and that's why it has been so nice to watch your videos to see what we might have up against. In few months ,he is going in surgery, and if everything goes well, my turn is soon after. If not, I might have to wait maybe half a year or longer that our turn comes in the doner line. The waiting part is the hardest thing I think.
The Alesssio jr joke at the end caught me so off guard and it was sooo funny that I actually snorted 🤣 good one!
You are a warrior, Jessi! ✨️Allah bless you.🤲 Thank you for sharing this. ❤
Ragazzi, siete troppo belli. Tutti i vostri consigli sono strepitosi. Tanti auguri. Un in bocca al lupo per l'intervento di Jessi. Che Dio vi benedica. Siete una coppia speciale.😍
God bless you two and I am wishing you the best of luck.
Good luck on everything!
When my husband and I were thinking of names we had the opposite problem, endless boy names we agreed on, almost no girl names that both liked.
Also, any guy feeling awkward giving a sperm sample, just remember everyone in that clinic either works there and is thinking about a to do list or their next meal, or they are thinking of the reason they are there to give a sample/are nervous too. Nobody cares about your dealings but you.
You both are so precious!!! Your love and concern for each other is lovely to watch. I pray that everything goes well and your children will be blessed to have you as their parents. May God bless you both.
After I wrote this comment, one of your answers touched my soul, and I must share it with you. When Jessi said that she knew she had to work on herself about responding to others when babies are in the conversation…..I have felt so anxious about my responses to others since my son passed away close to Christmas. Jessi, you gave me the courage to realize that I must work on myself and understand that others don’t know what to say….so thank you for showing this almost 67 year old mother how to care about myself and others. Thank you.
Praying you guys have a great outcome 👶!
We are trying for the past 10 years and had several miscarriages.
I admire both of you for being so open and honest about your journey, I'm rooting for you both ♥️♥️♥️
All my love and prayers to you both on this journey….🤗❤️
You two are precious and your love for one another is extremely special. Thank you for all the valuable information, especially how therapy helped you wrap your head around your situation such that you are better able to cope now. Know that we are all praying and rooting for you, no matter the outcome. Sending love to you both.
