MY STORY: My husband and I have been married almost 5 years. We were blessed with our daughter naturally and she just turned 4. We have been TTC again for the past 2.5 years and has 4 failed IUIs, countless months of Clomid and no baby! We are in the middle of IVF and are waiting to transfer out frozen embryo(s) on ice in the next few weeks!
Prayers for everyone struggling with infertility. I did IVF 5 years ago and was blessed with twin boys who are now 4. It was the best choice I ever made and will forever be grateful to God. I am now 42 and currently going through the IVF process one more time. I needed to try for one more so I pray it works again. May 25th is hopefully the transfer day!! I will be praying for everyone! 💕
❤️❤️ love this post ! It makes the biggest difference when you have someone to go through it with. When I went through IVF the people who had already gone through it helped me so much just by talking to me about it. I hope everyone gets their babies!
Love that, it's sad to think that so many women are going through infertility and struggling daily. I have PCOS and I have been struggling with weight gain and depression and inferitltiy for over 5 years. It's so hard. I'm sharing my journey to lose weight and journey to getting pregnant. Thanks for sharing your struggle. We can get through this together! 😘
I have never been diagnosed but always wondered if I have some form of PCOS. My RE said one of my ovaries looks polycystic, but I lack all other signs (i.e., I get regular periods, etc). I have noticed weight gain though, but I wonder if it is just from getting older and my metabolism slowing down. I found this page about things to help with PCOS. A lot of them were natural and I stumbled upon this stuff called Ovasitol. I take it now and it is a natural supplement. I figured it cant hurt. I'm not a doctor, I just thought I would let you know because some women have had really good success (from what I have read). Obviously, you would have to research it for yourself to see if it is something that would work for you. Baby dust~
PCOS is a struggle! I've seen so many people struggle with it and I'm so sorry you're dealing with it! Prayers that you get your baby! We WILL get through it!
Midwest Mom aw you're so sweet. It's so hard. Basically, losing weight is a huge help for all the pcos symptoms. Right now I'm just trying to fight my way down about 100lbs. I gotta fight for my baby 😍😘🙌
I started watching you when I had recently gone threw another pregnancy loss. I don’t struggle with infertility but I have struggled to stay pregnant. My last miscarriage came during a really tough time in my life. I didn’t know how to cope. So I started watching some RUclips videos (not a whole lot of videos on miscarriages) but I came across you. Although we weren’t going through the same thing you really resonated with me. We are both from the MidWest and your upbeat attitude about your struggles struck a cord with me. I have watched you videos and your journey ever since. I pray for you often. God works in mysterious ways and maybe you have gone through this infertility journey so you could share your story and inspire others. Thank you so much for doing so. Your strength is contagious.
Wow, thank you. *tears* My sole purpose here was to share so that someone, even if it was just 1 person, could learn from me. I am so terribly heartbroken by your miscarriages, I hope you never have to suffer again. Prayers for you.
I am so glad I was able to find your channel and connect with you. Since we are both proud Iowans I almost feel like I know you! :) my husband and I have been trying to conceive for 1 year. I have done 4 rounds of clomid and have suffered one early miscarriage. I just received an official PCOS diagnosis today after many months of suspecting so. I’m so glad I pushed my OB to look into it. Sometimes we have to stand up for ourselves in this journey! I have my appointment with the fertility specialist in about a month and I look forward to what is to come in our journey. 🙏🏻 When you share your story and open up its amazing all the people you encounter who understand and have been through similar. Infertility is its own little sorority of supportive and strong women ! 💕
Thank you so much for sharing your journey. It gives me so much hope. Im praying for you. Our infertility journey: My husband and I have been ttc for 10 years. We had 2 miscarriages in 2008 & 2010. Since our last miscarriage its been 8 years with no luck. We are starting our IVF journey in a couple of months. Please pray for us.
Me and my husband have been together 6 yrs and married just this October. We have tried for a tubal reversal and due to Male infertility we are going through IVF. This is my first and we are due to have the Egg retrieval this Thursday. Thanks so much for the videos you post they have been a blessing to me, you are truly a kind Soul.Best of Luck to you and your Family.
Michelle Bright good luck and I hope you have lots of beautiful eggs that come out! IVF is a roller coaster but it’s brought a lot of women their beautiful babies! Good luck! 💓
My story: I have been TTC for over 10 years now. I got pregnant naturally with my ex in 2013. Unfortunately, we lost the baby at 9 weeks. Flash forward to 2016, I left an unhappy relationship and reconnected with my one true love. We were married 5 months after dating. We have been married for almost 2 years. I struggle with PCOS and male factor infertility. My husband and I recently did two IUI's, in which both, unfortunately failed. His count was only between 200,000 and 250,000 each time. We were suggested to go straight into IVF. We are currently trying to save up for the meds, to hopefully be able to complete our first IVF in July. It seems like forever away, but I know that it will fly. There's been a ton of highs, lows, ups, down and in betweens, but somehow we always manage to pull through. IVF is a very scary thought, but we can only hope and pray that God is on our side and will soon bless us with the child we have been praying about for so long now. I will be thinking of and praying for you all. God bless and baby dust
I know it'll happen for you guys! I wish IUIs weren't pushed as much! I cannot believe how low the success rates are! I just know IVF will do it for you! You deserve to be a mama!
My husband and I have been ttc baby #2 going on two years. We have a 3 year old who we conceived naturally. Been through multiple tests & procedures and came to conclusion of unexplained infertility. We are doing our 2nd iui this month and if that doesn't work we will move on to IVF. Your videos about it have helped me prepare myself if that time is to come. Baby dust for us all ♡♡
I love the idea of a prayer chain.. Thank you for being so transparent and encouraging. Infertility is such an emotional roller coaster and can be so lonely having a community of people who understand is vital.. My husband and I have been trying for almost 3 years, we are keeping the faith and hopeful that we will be blessed soon.
My Story: My husband and I have been married for 3 years, and TTC for two years.We have never had a BFP. After countless rounds of Femara, dr appts, and testing we have been diagnosed with male factor infertility. We will be starting our first IVF cycle in May! My RE said IUIs would be a waste of money and time for us. Nobody knows about our struggle except for my mother and mother in law. Praying for positive things to come for all of us TTC warriors! Thank you for sharing your journey!
I'm glad your RE didn't push IUIs on you! I wish we would've skipped them! Good luck!! I hope you are very successful and have a very easy IVF with no setbacks!
Awareness regarding infertility really needs to spread. It is so important that we realize that is it actually one of the reasons that today depression and anxiety are at such a rise. I think you did a great job by uploading this video. More people definitely need to know about. The earlier you are diagnosed with the problem the more you can do to solve it. It is however great that now we do have a lot of options to go for. IVF and IUI have definitely helped several people out. Best to all those trying.
Thanks for sharing this and thanks to all of you for sharing! OUR STORY: We went through almost 5 years of fertility treatments (unexplained with stage II endometriosis)....6 failed IUI's before we were able to move onto IVF. They retrieved 7 eggs, (we lost 1, so ended up with 6) and was unsuccessful on the 1st transfer. We did end up getting pregnant on our 2nd FET and now have a little boy who just turned 21 months! We have 4 embryos left and are now beginning to consider doing another FET. Going through the whole process again (shots, meds, emotional roller coaster, etc.) is rather scary and nerve wracking but knowing this process can be successful is encouraging. I know that it isn't easy and trust me, I saw some of my darkest (rock bottom) days going through it, but please know that my heart and prayers go out to all of you and I wish you all the best in your journeys!!!
My husband and I married in September of 2016 and have been trying for our first little babe since - due to Endometriosis AKA the devils work 😐😂 Right now, we are continuing to TTC naturally before moving on to IVF. 💕 Praying for all of your ladies - thank you Anna for your positivity and prayers! You’re the sweetest ❤️
Yes! It does! It really makes us woman so vulnerable. Yeah! I'm also undergoing surrogacy this year as I've been unable to produce a child for so long! Wish me luck! Thanks for making the video. They are really helping and supportive. Stay blessed! xx
I feel like, everyone is dealing with their own demons. Every human is struggling somehow. And infertility is very terrible. The constant disappointment shatters a person so bad, that feels too horrible to open up about the struggles. And you are such an inspiration to those because they find an outlet where they can share and listen to you. More power to you!!
MY STORY: My husband and I decided we were ready to start a family November 2015 right after he proposed. I found out I was pregnant May of 2016 which resulted into a ectopic pregnancy. I was devastated, but knew we would get through it. We stopped trying for while since our wedding was quickly approaching. In May 2017 two weeks before our wedding, I found out I was pregnant. Two days before my wedding I had to have emergency surgery due to the pregnancy being ectopic again and them having to remove my right fallopian tube. I look at my wedding photos and I am still in awe. Only very close family knew what happened two days prior. I had to cancel my honeymoon and to miscarry on what was supposed to be the highlight of all our wedding planning was a very hard me. After going in for a check up with my doctor after the surgery, I was told my left tube looked fine and that if we want, we could get a HSG test or try again because you can still get pregnant with one tube. Fast forward to October 2017, I found out I was pregnant again, but the pregnancy turned out be another ectopic pregnancy and me having emergency surgery 2 days after my husbands 30th birthday. This resulted in me having my final fallopian tube removed. Being only 26 and having the doctors tell me I could never conceive naturally hurt me to my core. I am believer in Jesus Christ and those 3 babies I prayed day and night for. But I serve a faithful God and he has truly gotten me through this. We are in the process of IVF and I am all the feels. Thank you for sharing your story because Infertility/miscarriages can make you truly feel alone.
I am 37 and my Husband 38. We've been together almost 10 years (in August! Milestone anniversary) and in January 2016 we decided that we wanted to grow our family and waiting for the "right time" would mean we would not ever be "ready". After a year of trying and not even getting a chemical pregnancy positive I asked my doctor to refer us to the fertility to clinic. We had to wait 6 months, but in July of 2017 we were finally under the advisement of our RE. HSG, SONO, SA, Blood works all in the can and our RE officially labeled us unexplained. We had to wait a further 6 months to start IUI (February 2018) and after 2 failed IUI attempts (Feb and March 2018) we are on the countdown for our IVF cycle in June. So 2.5 years in the journey between beginning TTC and coming to our IVF cycle. It a VERY long and lonely road. The community online is a saviour for me because I don't open up about it to my family. I can't deal with the "are you pregnant this cycle" questions that I would get from them. EDIT to add - oh yea, forgot the jealousy - yes - it is strong in TTC infertilty. I'm at a count of 2 family members and at least 5 others in my social circle who have become pregnant, not to mention all who have graduated on the message boards.
My story: my husband and I first conceived on our honeymoon in 2013. Shocked by how easily we fell pregnant, we were equally shocked by a missed miscarriage at 10 weeks. Our second pregnancy came 5 months later and resulted in our perfect DS, who will turn 3 next month. In April of 2016 we began trying for number 2, and quickly were successful, only to suffer another MMC. And then a third loss, a chemical, a few months later. We turned to an RE, had lots of tests and everything was essentially normal. Did 3 rounds of Femara and conceived again in October of 2017. 4th loss and blighted ovum that time. So we turned to IVF in early 2018, with PGS due to at least 2 of the losses showing chromosomal abnormalities. They retrieved 20 eggs and ultimately we ended up with 5 blastocysts at day 5. One of those is genetically normal. We will be doing our FET with our one golden, perfect little embryo in the next month. I’m excited, hopeful, but also scared and anxious. We hope this next step is what ultimately completes our little family. 😊
Amanda Williams we will be doing our FETs the same month! PLEASE let me know how it goes! I will be thinking of you now when we go for ours! I just his embryo of yours is it!! Good luck! 💓
Midwest Mom Thanks so much, Anna! Excited to follow your journey as I also go through the process at the same time. Hope we both have successful transfers and happy updates to our IVF stories!
hey there!!! such a great video to see. love this post! these are the really great motivation for the infertile. When I went through IVF the people who had already gone through it helped me so much. I hope everyone gets their babies. best wishes to all who are waiting for a good news.
Three years TTC with PCOS and male factor infertility. Was initially told we were not good candidates for IVF due to our weight, well we lost a lot of weight the old fashion way and are now starting our injections for our first round of IVF on Friday! I think the fact we are starting or injections during Infertility Awareness Week is good luck and I am staying positive! I have found that the more transparent I have become about my infertility the more support and fellow IVFer's I have found!
Hi. Thanks for making this video. Spreading awareness about this was needed. I agree with you. It is the worst. There are so many things a person has to face in this. It gets frustrating. Everybody deserve to become a parent. I'm glad you shared your experience with us.
I completely understand about trying to be positive and have hope. I work in a high risk OB clinic. I’m ttc baby #1. I got married in September 2016 and tried on our own for awhile even though i knew i had pcos. I went to a fertility clinic and wasn’t happy with them so didn’t move forward. Earlier this year, a nurse I work with told me about how wonderful her pervious job at a fertility clinic was so i made an appointment. The doctor let me try letrozole right away. The first round didn’t do anything so we increased the dose. My follicles matured! I didn’t conceive but my period came right on time ! So i knew my body was working. This is my second round of the higher dose with the trigger shot. Right now I’m in the 2 week wait and i had ~3 follicles. So 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼. Thank you for sharing your story!
I have been watching you from the beginning. Loving this post. Thanks for giving awareness. My friend is trying to conceive for 4 years. But the things just really did not work for her. So she decided to go for IVF. She had few complications in the start. But everything goes well. I am so happy for her now.
hey there! It was such an amazing video. TCC is one of the hardest things a woman can go through. and miscarrying is worst feelings of all times. I think people should know about surrogacy and IVF and how beautiful these procedures are for infertile couples and women. it is important to raise awareness about it because there is no shame in not being able to have your own baby. its totally okay, no one is infertile by choice, just stay strong and come out. choose the solution for your problem.
Hey. I cried after reading these stories. They're so relatable. I can feel your pain, mommas. I hope things get better for all of us. I hope to start surrogacy soon. Lots of baby dust your way.
Hey thanks for this video. Its good that you are sharing your story with us. Yes there are many women out there who are facing infertility. One out of every 11 women faced infertility. Our wishes and prayers are with you.
Great effort to inspire many. It will contribute to the wisdom and knowledge of many people. It reveals that life has all shades of happiness and sadness. A video that is thoroughly enjoyed by an IP as well as the general viewer. The journey from hopelessness to hope is tough but it's really great. It adds so much to life. I hope that life brings all pleasures to those who are challenged by the curse of disappointment.
You guys are doing great. keep it up. Surrogacy is the most famous treatment nowadays. My sister is also going for surrogacy treatment. She is going to Europe for the treatment. She is very happy with her decision. So keep it up this good work.
Infertility sucks indeed. It makes you depressed. It leaves you wanting to pull away all your hair. I am glad you decided to make this video. It will indeed create awareness. People need to be aware of the possible treatments. They have believed that infertility is incurable.
" I love this post. It is the very beautiful post. I also face through IVF. I know it is very painful for all women to face it. But these types of post inspires others to not to lose hope. Thanks for your post"
You guys are doing great. Surrogacy is the most working treatment nowadays. My Freind is also going for surrogacy treatment. She is going to Europe for the treatment. She is very happy with her decision. So keep it up this good work.
Infertility is prevailing all over the world. And people really need to know about it. Many people have misconceptions about the treatments for infertility. In such a situation it is very important that you share such a video. It will help many to know More about this topic. Wishing luck to everyone on this journey. Love and success to all. More power to all.
Yes! Exactly! I agree it really takes to develop this kind of confident to come up. More importantly, people need empathy and support from others in this issue. Yes! I'm also having my PCOS for which I'm really having an IVF this year. So, yeah! I've even made a few friends who are in the same boat as mine. Yes! Anyway! Wish you all the best in your IVF journey. xx
Thank you for this video. I have been watching you from the start! I am so invested in your Journey! 💖 I am struggling with secondary infertility after having 2 kids. We have been trying for baby #3 for 2 years. I really want to get pregnant naturally. I think my problem is that I spot through my luteal phase. I have been taking maca and vitex to try to help. I did do 3 cycles of unsuccessful Clomid. Next step is to get my husband check out. I am loving reading everyones stories!! Such an amazing idea!
Grateful to you for sharing this video. That was such a great effort by you. Being infertile is very painful. They suffer a lot due to it. I will definitely share it with my friends. Keep it up!
I have been watching your videos today And skipping through to the ones that peak my interest. Honestly can't believe how so many people are going through. Can't wait to graduate to obygn🙏. Send all the Mama's to be good vibes. And don't ever get upset if you see others pregnant. Because we each have our journey mine has been a process 15yrs and this day I get excited for all Mama's to be. Had has His mysterious ways.
Such an inspirational video. I love your channel. I think you are doing a great job. I myself am on this infertility journey and some days are very rough. Your videos help me feel less alone. Thank you so much for that. Keep uploading. Also, best of luck for your IVF cycle.
My story: My husband at only 19 years old was catastrophically injured while deployed to Afganistan due to an ied blast and paralyzed resulting in a male-factor infertility condition known as anaejaculation. I had a traumatic childhood and was so sure I never wanted children. I wanted a tubal from the time I was 18 until 27 when my obgyn who was retiring final agreed and tied my tubes. Then, I met my husband in 2016, we knew from the moment we met that this was the relationship we'd both been searching for our entire lives. We decided that we also wanted a family together. I had guilt over my tubal but IVF was our only option due to my husband's injuries. We've been through one cycle which resulted in no blasts. We will be cycling again next month.
Thanks for sharing your story! My story: Secondary infertility, one living daughter. Last year on 22 April 17, I had a miscarriage at 10 weeks. 4 IUIs and one home insemination later, I've gone to RE #2. Meeting on 01 May to discuss my test results, prognosis and next steps. Every cycle that I don't get a positive pregnancy test is like a little death. #FliptheScript #NIAW #InfertilitySucks
Infertility takes a lot out of a woman. I was facing infertility due to cervix incompetence disease. I wasted 10 years in trying to conceive. I always wanted to give birth to a baby and to be a mother. My husband was not agreed first with me to give birth in unnatural ways. Later, he too wanted babies badly. I was really happy. We tried IVF first but failed. Then, I decided to go for surrogacy. I wanted a baby and my husband supported me a lot. We went to the suggested clinic. We found our surrogate in the clinic. When she got pregnant the clinic provided us the authority on a baby. We are now blessed with a baby boy.
Hi! This is a very emotional video. I am glad that you are sharing your story with us. I feel so sorry for you. I know how hard infertility can be to cope with but we must never give up hope and keep trying. I wish you the best of luck take care.
Grateful to you for sharing this video. That was really a great and nice effort from your side. Being infertile is very hard. They suffer very much difficulties due to it. I will definitely share it with my friends. Keep it up!
Hello. So nice of you for sharing such video. My better half and I were ttc for 10 years. We confronted infertility and I was the reason. I was so disturbed. My better half never said yet I knew he wanted children. We went for IUI yet it fizzled. So we went for surrogacy. I have a child now. I am so glad to have him.
Hello. This is such a great video. It has so much information. Infertility is really a very painful thing to go through. It is good to know that im not alone. Thank you for making this video.
Hey there. How are you doing? I hope its all great. I know how hard infertility can be. I am an infertile person. I am glad options like surrogacy and IVF are there. I wish everyone good luck. Take care.
Hey. I hope you do good. I am in the same boat. I could not conceive naturally. I am a victim of infertility. My first IVF cycle failed. The second attempted failed too. I was all hopeless. My husband wanted me to give it another try. Only because of him, I agreed. This time with a new hope and courage. It worked the 3rd time. I am so glad. Miracles do happen. I am a blessed mother now. :))
Hey! hope so you are doing well. I just watched your video. Quite interesting it is. I am heart patient. Suffering from the cardio stenosis. That's why I'm not able to conceive naturally. I have declared infertile by my doctors. Then I adopted surrogacy. And it made my life filled with colors. Keep making such type of videos to spread awareness among people. My appreciation.
My husband and I have been together for 10 years (11 this August) and married for 7 years this June. We started trying for my son in the summer of 2012 and got pregnant in June 2013, naturally. He was born in February 2014 and just turned 4. Right after his 1st birthday in 2015 we decided we wanted to start trying again, so we did. We knew it might take us awhile since it took us a year with our first. In September 2016 I got pregnant and miscarried two weeks later. I saw my OBGYN and she said that maybe I wasn't ovulating every month like I should, so she gave us femara and I used it for 6 months....no babies. Then in summer of 2017 we had two natural IUIs, both failed. We got pregnant in December of 2017 on our own again and I miscarried again right before Christmas. We just finished our first IUI with Clomid with our fertility clinic and I found out today it didn't work. Infertility, whether it be primary or secondary is so so so hard. It is like everyone else gets pregnant and you don't/can't. Then they don't know your story and say things like "omg I cant wait until this pregnancy is over" or they only try and get on their first try. You just want to scream and say "DONT SAY THOSE THINGS YOU ARE SO LUCKY!" Not to mention how expensive infertility can be. I think about being pregnant and the fact that I am not every...single....day, but channels and ladies like you help so much. I wish everyone lots of baby dust and I hope we get our babies soon.
I will pray for you all who want a baby so badly Makes me almost feel guilty as My husband and I got pregnant in the first 3 months that we were trying ... we also wanted a baby so badly and were blessed to not experience infertility I will pray for you all 🙏🦋🌷
Infertility is the worst nightmare for a married woman. I am 43 years old but i have no luck with children. I conceived for 3 times but resulted in miscarriage. I was heart broken and sad. But than my friend told me about surrogacy. I started looking for surrogacy. I researched about surrogacy and gathered a lot of information about it. I have finally decided to go for surrogacy to have a baby now. Wish me luck.
My husband and I have been together just over 3 years, married just over 1. We’ve been TTC for almost 10 months. Went to the doctor 2 weeks ago (and my temperatures proved it this month) and he diagnosed me with ovulation dysfunction and I will be starting Clomid next month. 🤞🏼🤞🏼that I don’t pull my hair out from side effects.
Victoria Ballou I’ll be praying for you and I bet it’ll only take Clomid to get you a precious baby! I’ll make sure u pray extra that you don’t pull your hair out 😂💓🙌🏻
Hubby and I have been trying for 2 years officially TTCing and 2 unofficially; 5 years together; 2 married. We stopped using birth control about two years into our relationship. We went in to see the RE when nothing was happening and my husband was dx'ed with MFI (low motility and morphology); I was dx'd with Chronic Endometritis (not endometriosis) and Hashimoto's Disease. We tried a couple of times with medicated IUI (Femara, Ovidrel; still nothing). We made the call to start doing IVF in June and currently saving up right now. I've been following your YT channel and IG as a source of "what to expect" and support.
Hey. Thank you for sharing such video. My husband and I were married 5 years back. I faced infertility and I was the reason. I was so upset. Because of me, my husband was struggling. He never said but I knew he wanted babies badly. We went for IVF but it failed. So we went for surrogacy. I have a baby now. I am so happy to have him.
My husband and I have been together 10 years and married 5. We started TTC for our first in 2013. We got pregnant early 2015 but miscarried. We had our rainbow in 2016 and we have been TTC for number 2 since March 2017. I had a feeling there was an underlying issue since it took us so long to get pregnant the first time and we have been TTC this time over a year and we finally started being seen in a fertility clinic in March 2018. We have (severe?) male factor infertility. His best specimen had 4.9 million post wash. We are going to give IUI a try this coming in May. If that doesn't work I think we are headed for IVF.
Hi there. Hope you are doing fine. This is a nice video. Thank you so much for sharing it. Yes, Infertility definitely sucks. It is a big issue. Thankfully, methods like IVF, IUI, and Surrogacy exists for the people like us. Keep up the good work.
Hello Dear, Thanyou for your such type of for infertile mothers.I suggest surrogacy for every mother who trying to concieve for so long. My story is pretty much the same. I had cancer of the uterus. So I had surrogacy in 2015. My baby boy was born in November last year. We are currently in our second surrogacy journey. I’m so excited to become mom one more time. I wish all girls here to have happy stories as ours!
Thank you for your encouragement and openness about your journey. My Husband and i have been trying since Nov 2017, i know that it is not as long as some of the comments, but i know the disappointment of month in and month out of trying with no result, all you ladies are in my prayers.
My husband and I have been trying for 10 months, which doesn’t seem like a long time compared to others but feels like forever. We have mostly just tried naturally, along with an HSG test, and progesterone cream. Now I’m trying Letrozol. Fingers crossed this is our month 🤞🏻
Hello everyone. Here is my short story. I can't conceive naturally due to my heart disease. After getting so much information, finally me and my DH decided to go for surrogacy. We visited Ukraine clinic. And our procedure starts. Need your prayers.
Hey! Tough life I must say. Well, even I had two IVF failed. And at that point in time, I had left with no money. So I dropped my procedure. I went through marriage failure. And know I am a surrogacy person. I am looking forward to my procedure.
I struggled to have my son who is now 7. We tried for about 2 years and were just about to get an IUI when someone suggested going to the chiropractor and getting an adjustment. I went to the chiropractor and the chiropractor adjusted my pelvis and I was pregnant the next month.
I and my husband are together since 2011. at that time we were not ready for the baby. So we waited and in 2014 we planned to have the baby. We ttc to conceive. But nothing happened. We tried so much for 5 years. But then a friend of mine told me about surrogacy. We go for this treatment. Now we have a very beautiful baby girl of nine months.
Hi Dear, I and My husband married 6Years ago. I was surprised by pregnant on my honeymoon. But I got miscarriage due to my poor health condition. After 1Year I got pregnant again that was the really memorable journey. We got a cute baby boy. After 3years we decide for 2nd baby. But unfortunately, we got an infertile issue. Now I have tried a lot through IVF and Still trying. Hope for good news soon.
My husband and I have been ttc for 3 years. We recently met with a Fertility specialist. During my hsg, found out that my left fallopian tube is blocked. The combination of that and my husband working offshore has not been in our favor. So we got his swimmers frozen and waiting for me to ovulate on my right side(this month it was the left) and they will do an iui once that happens. Come on righty!!
congratulations on your success. I m from Bulgaria. I Am trying to conceive for last 10 years. Unfortunately i did not find any luck with all possible methods. Last month a friend of mine told me about this new method called Surrogacy. Although its banned in our country. I do not have any choice rather then surrogacy. I have heard its legal in some countries. Kindly suggest me a suitable clinic.
Me and my husband have been together 6 yrs and married just this October. We have tried for a tubal reversal and due to Male infertility we are going through IVF. This is my first and we are due to have the Egg retrieval this Thursday. Thanks so much for the videos you post they have been a blessing to me, you are truly a kind Soul.Best of Luck to you and your Family
MY STORY: My husband and I have been married almost 5 years. We were blessed with our daughter naturally and she just turned 4. We have been TTC again for the past 2.5 years and has 4 failed IUIs, countless months of Clomid and no baby! We are in the middle of IVF and are waiting to transfer out frozen embryo(s) on ice in the next few weeks!
Prayers for everyone struggling with infertility. I did IVF 5 years ago and was blessed with twin boys who are now 4. It was the best choice I ever made and will forever be grateful to God. I am now 42 and currently going through the IVF process one more time. I needed to try for one more so I pray it works again. May 25th is hopefully the transfer day!! I will be praying for everyone! 💕
GOOD LUCK! I pray God guide the embryo(s) and that it be your next family addition! :)
+Midwest Mom thank you. Love watching your story and can't wait till you share your IVF transfer date!! 🙏🏼
❤️❤️ love this post ! It makes the biggest difference when you have someone to go through it with. When I went through IVF the people who had already gone through it helped me so much just by talking to me about it. I hope everyone gets their babies!
Love that, it's sad to think that so many women are going through infertility and struggling daily. I have PCOS and I have been struggling with weight gain and depression and inferitltiy for over 5 years. It's so hard. I'm sharing my journey to lose weight and journey to getting pregnant. Thanks for sharing your struggle. We can get through this together! 😘
I have never been diagnosed but always wondered if I have some form of PCOS. My RE said one of my ovaries looks polycystic, but I lack all other signs (i.e., I get regular periods, etc). I have noticed weight gain though, but I wonder if it is just from getting older and my metabolism slowing down. I found this page about things to help with PCOS. A lot of them were natural and I stumbled upon this stuff called Ovasitol. I take it now and it is a natural supplement. I figured it cant hurt. I'm not a doctor, I just thought I would let you know because some women have had really good success (from what I have read). Obviously, you would have to research it for yourself to see if it is something that would work for you. Baby dust~
PCOS is a struggle! I've seen so many people struggle with it and I'm so sorry you're dealing with it! Prayers that you get your baby! We WILL get through it!
Midwest Mom aw you're so sweet. It's so hard. Basically, losing weight is a huge help for all the pcos symptoms. Right now I'm just trying to fight my way down about 100lbs. I gotta fight for my baby 😍😘🙌
yes, girl! keep your baby(ies) in mind! you will get through this!!
I started watching you when I had recently gone threw another pregnancy loss. I don’t struggle with infertility but I have struggled to stay pregnant. My last miscarriage came during a really tough time in my life. I didn’t know how to cope. So I started watching some RUclips videos (not a whole lot of videos on miscarriages) but I came across you. Although we weren’t going through the same thing you really resonated with me. We are both from the MidWest and your upbeat attitude about your struggles struck a cord with me. I have watched you videos and your journey ever since. I pray for you often. God works in mysterious ways and maybe you have gone through this infertility journey so you could share your story and inspire others. Thank you so much for doing so. Your strength is contagious.
Wow, thank you. *tears* My sole purpose here was to share so that someone, even if it was just 1 person, could learn from me. I am so terribly heartbroken by your miscarriages, I hope you never have to suffer again. Prayers for you.
I am so glad I was able to find your channel and connect with you. Since we are both proud Iowans I almost feel like I know you! :) my husband and I have been trying to conceive for 1 year. I have done 4 rounds of clomid and have suffered one early miscarriage. I just received an official PCOS diagnosis today after many months of suspecting so. I’m so glad I pushed my OB to look into it. Sometimes we have to stand up for ourselves in this journey! I have my appointment with the fertility specialist in about a month and I look forward to what is to come in our journey. 🙏🏻 When you share your story and open up its amazing all the people you encounter who understand and have been through similar. Infertility is its own little sorority of supportive and strong women ! 💕
Thank you so much for sharing your journey. It gives me so much hope. Im praying for you.
Our infertility journey: My husband and I have been ttc for 10 years. We had 2 miscarriages in 2008 & 2010. Since our last miscarriage its been 8 years with no luck. We are starting our IVF journey in a couple of months. Please pray for us.
Fasten your seatbelt and get ready! I pray this IVF journey will go smoothly and you will get your precious baby (ies)!
Me and my husband have been together 6 yrs and married just this October. We have tried for a tubal reversal and due to Male infertility we are going through IVF. This is my first and we are due to have the Egg retrieval this Thursday. Thanks so much for the videos you post they have been a blessing to me, you are truly a kind Soul.Best of Luck to you and your Family.
Michelle Bright good luck and I hope you have lots of beautiful eggs that come out! IVF is a roller coaster but it’s brought a lot of women their beautiful babies! Good luck! 💓
My story: I have been TTC for over 10 years now. I got pregnant naturally with my ex in 2013. Unfortunately, we lost the baby at 9 weeks. Flash forward to 2016, I left an unhappy relationship and reconnected with my one true love. We were married 5 months after dating. We have been married for almost 2 years. I struggle with PCOS and male factor infertility. My husband and I recently did two IUI's, in which both, unfortunately failed. His count was only between 200,000 and 250,000 each time. We were suggested to go straight into IVF. We are currently trying to save up for the meds, to hopefully be able to complete our first IVF in July. It seems like forever away, but I know that it will fly. There's been a ton of highs, lows, ups, down and in betweens, but somehow we always manage to pull through. IVF is a very scary thought, but we can only hope and pray that God is on our side and will soon bless us with the child we have been praying about for so long now. I will be thinking of and praying for you all. God bless and baby dust
I know it'll happen for you guys! I wish IUIs weren't pushed as much! I cannot believe how low the success rates are! I just know IVF will do it for you! You deserve to be a mama!
My husband and I have been ttc baby #2 going on two years. We have a 3 year old who we conceived naturally. Been through multiple tests & procedures and came to conclusion of unexplained infertility. We are doing our 2nd iui this month and if that doesn't work we will move on to IVF. Your videos about it have helped me prepare myself if that time is to come. Baby dust for us all ♡♡
Secondary fertility is the worst! Praying for your IUI and that it be successful!
I love the idea of a prayer chain.. Thank you for being so transparent and encouraging. Infertility is such an emotional roller coaster and can be so lonely having a community of people who understand is vital.. My husband and I have been trying for almost 3 years, we are keeping the faith and hopeful that we will be blessed soon.
My Story: My husband and I have been married for 3 years, and TTC for two years.We have never had a BFP. After countless rounds of Femara, dr appts, and testing we have been diagnosed with male factor infertility. We will be starting our first IVF cycle in May! My RE said IUIs would be a waste of money and time for us. Nobody knows about our struggle except for my mother and mother in law. Praying for positive things to come for all of us TTC warriors! Thank you for sharing your journey!
I'm glad your RE didn't push IUIs on you! I wish we would've skipped them! Good luck!! I hope you are very successful and have a very easy IVF with no setbacks!
Awareness regarding infertility really needs to spread. It is so important that we realize that is it actually one of the reasons that today depression and anxiety are at such a rise. I think you did a great job by uploading this video. More people definitely need to know about. The earlier you are diagnosed with the problem the more you can do to solve it. It is however great that now we do have a lot of options to go for. IVF and IUI have definitely helped several people out. Best to all those trying.
Thanks for sharing this and thanks to all of you for sharing! OUR STORY: We went through almost 5 years of fertility treatments (unexplained with stage II endometriosis)....6 failed IUI's before we were able to move onto IVF. They retrieved 7 eggs, (we lost 1, so ended up with 6) and was unsuccessful on the 1st transfer. We did end up getting pregnant on our 2nd FET and now have a little boy who just turned 21 months! We have 4 embryos left and are now beginning to consider doing another FET. Going through the whole process again (shots, meds, emotional roller coaster, etc.) is rather scary and nerve wracking but knowing this process can be successful is encouraging. I know that it isn't easy and trust me, I saw some of my darkest (rock bottom) days going through it, but please know that my heart and prayers go out to all of you and I wish you all the best in your journeys!!!
My husband and I married in September of 2016 and have been trying for our first little babe since - due to Endometriosis AKA the devils work 😐😂 Right now, we are continuing to TTC naturally before moving on to IVF. 💕 Praying for all of your ladies - thank you Anna for your positivity and prayers! You’re the sweetest ❤️
Yes! It does! It really makes us woman so vulnerable. Yeah! I'm also undergoing surrogacy this year as I've been unable to produce a child for so long! Wish me luck! Thanks for making the video. They are really helping and supportive. Stay blessed! xx
I feel like, everyone is dealing with their own demons. Every human is struggling somehow. And infertility is very terrible. The constant disappointment shatters a person so bad, that feels too horrible to open up about the struggles. And you are such an inspiration to those because they find an outlet where they can share and listen to you. More power to you!!
MY STORY: My husband and I decided we were ready to start a family November 2015 right after he proposed. I found out I was pregnant May of 2016 which resulted into a ectopic pregnancy. I was devastated, but knew we would get through it. We stopped trying for while since our wedding was quickly approaching. In May 2017 two weeks before our wedding, I found out I was pregnant. Two days before my wedding I had to have emergency surgery due to the pregnancy being ectopic again and them having to remove my right fallopian tube. I look at my wedding photos and I am still in awe. Only very close family knew what happened two days prior. I had to cancel my honeymoon and to miscarry on what was supposed to be the highlight of all our wedding planning was a very hard me. After going in for a check up with my doctor after the surgery, I was told my left tube looked fine and that if we want, we could get a HSG test or try again because you can still get pregnant with one tube. Fast forward to October 2017, I found out I was pregnant again, but the pregnancy turned out be another ectopic pregnancy and me having emergency surgery 2 days after my husbands 30th birthday. This resulted in me having my final fallopian tube removed. Being only 26 and having the doctors tell me I could never conceive naturally hurt me to my core. I am believer in Jesus Christ and those 3 babies I prayed day and night for. But I serve a faithful God and he has truly gotten me through this. We are in the process of IVF and I am all the feels. Thank you for sharing your story because Infertility/miscarriages can make you truly feel alone.
I am 37 and my Husband 38. We've been together almost 10 years (in August! Milestone anniversary) and in January 2016 we decided that we wanted to grow our family and waiting for the "right time" would mean we would not ever be "ready". After a year of trying and not even getting a chemical pregnancy positive I asked my doctor to refer us to the fertility to clinic. We had to wait 6 months, but in July of 2017 we were finally under the advisement of our RE. HSG, SONO, SA, Blood works all in the can and our RE officially labeled us unexplained. We had to wait a further 6 months to start IUI (February 2018) and after 2 failed IUI attempts (Feb and March 2018) we are on the countdown for our IVF cycle in June. So 2.5 years in the journey between beginning TTC and coming to our IVF cycle. It a VERY long and lonely road. The community online is a saviour for me because I don't open up about it to my family. I can't deal with the "are you pregnant this cycle" questions that I would get from them. EDIT to add - oh yea, forgot the jealousy - yes - it is strong in TTC infertilty. I'm at a count of 2 family members and at least 5 others in my social circle who have become pregnant, not to mention all who have graduated on the message boards.
My story: my husband and I first conceived on our honeymoon in 2013. Shocked by how easily we fell pregnant, we were equally shocked by a missed miscarriage at 10 weeks. Our second pregnancy came 5 months later and resulted in our perfect DS, who will turn 3 next month. In April of 2016 we began trying for number 2, and quickly were successful, only to suffer another MMC. And then a third loss, a chemical, a few months later. We turned to an RE, had lots of tests and everything was essentially normal. Did 3 rounds of Femara and conceived again in October of 2017. 4th loss and blighted ovum that time. So we turned to IVF in early 2018, with PGS due to at least 2 of the losses showing chromosomal abnormalities. They retrieved 20 eggs and ultimately we ended up with 5 blastocysts at day 5. One of those is genetically normal. We will be doing our FET with our one golden, perfect little embryo in the next month. I’m excited, hopeful, but also scared and anxious. We hope this next step is what ultimately completes our little family. 😊
Amanda Williams we will be doing our FETs the same month! PLEASE let me know how it goes! I will be thinking of you now when we go for ours! I just his embryo of yours is it!! Good luck! 💓
Midwest Mom Thanks so much, Anna! Excited to follow your journey as I also go through the process at the same time. Hope we both have successful transfers and happy updates to our IVF stories!
hey there!!! such a great video to see. love this post! these are the really great motivation for the infertile. When I went through IVF the people who had already gone through it helped me so much. I hope everyone gets their babies. best wishes to all who are waiting for a good news.
Three years TTC with PCOS and male factor infertility. Was initially told we were not good candidates for IVF due to our weight, well we lost a lot of weight the old fashion way and are now starting our injections for our first round of IVF on Friday! I think the fact we are starting or injections during Infertility Awareness Week is good luck and I am staying positive! I have found that the more transparent I have become about my infertility the more support and fellow IVFer's I have found!
Hi. Thanks for making this video. Spreading awareness about this was needed. I agree with you. It is the worst. There are so many things a person has to face in this. It gets frustrating. Everybody deserve to become a parent. I'm glad you shared your experience with us.
I completely understand about trying to be positive and have hope. I work in a high risk OB clinic. I’m ttc baby #1. I got married in September 2016 and tried on our own for awhile even though i knew i had pcos. I went to a fertility clinic and wasn’t happy with them so didn’t move forward. Earlier this year, a nurse I work with told me about how wonderful her pervious job at a fertility clinic was so i made an appointment. The doctor let me try letrozole right away. The first round didn’t do anything so we increased the dose. My follicles matured! I didn’t conceive but my period came right on time ! So i knew my body was working. This is my second round of the higher dose with the trigger shot. Right now I’m in the 2 week wait and i had ~3 follicles. So 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼. Thank you for sharing your story!
I have been watching you from the beginning. Loving this post. Thanks for giving awareness. My friend is trying to conceive for 4 years. But the things just really did not work for her. So she decided to go for IVF. She had few complications in the start. But everything goes well. I am so happy for her now.
hey there! It was such an amazing video. TCC is one of the hardest things a woman can go through. and miscarrying is worst feelings of all times. I think people should know about surrogacy and IVF and how beautiful these procedures are for infertile couples and women. it is important to raise awareness about it because there is no shame in not being able to have your own baby. its totally okay, no one is infertile by choice, just stay strong and come out. choose the solution for your problem.
Hey. I cried after reading these stories. They're so relatable. I can feel your pain, mommas. I hope things get better for all of us. I hope to start surrogacy soon. Lots of baby dust your way.
Hey thanks for this video. Its good that you are sharing your story with us. Yes there are many women out there who are facing infertility. One out of every 11 women faced infertility. Our wishes and prayers are with you.
Great effort to inspire many. It will contribute to the wisdom and knowledge of many people. It reveals that life has all shades of happiness and sadness. A video that is thoroughly enjoyed by an IP as well as the general viewer. The journey from hopelessness to hope is tough but it's really great. It adds so much to life. I hope that life brings all pleasures to those who are challenged by the curse of disappointment.
You guys are doing great. keep it up. Surrogacy is the most famous treatment nowadays. My sister is also going for surrogacy treatment. She is going to Europe for the treatment. She is very happy with her decision. So keep it up this good work.
Infertility sucks indeed. It makes you depressed. It leaves you wanting to pull away all your hair. I am glad you decided to make this video. It will indeed create awareness. People need to be aware of the possible treatments. They have believed that infertility is incurable.
"
I love this post. It is the very beautiful post. I also face through IVF. I know it is very painful for all women to face it. But these types of post inspires others to not to lose hope. Thanks for your post"
You guys are doing great. Surrogacy is the most working treatment nowadays. My Freind is also going for surrogacy treatment. She is going to Europe for the treatment. She is very happy with her decision. So keep it up this good work.
Infertility is prevailing all over the world. And people really need to know about it. Many people have misconceptions about the treatments for infertility. In such a situation it is very important that you share such a video. It will help many to know More about this topic. Wishing luck to everyone on this journey. Love and success to all. More power to all.
Yes! Exactly! I agree it really takes to develop this kind of confident to come up. More importantly, people need empathy and support from others in this issue. Yes! I'm also having my PCOS for which I'm really having an IVF this year. So, yeah! I've even made a few friends who are in the same boat as mine. Yes! Anyway! Wish you all the best in your IVF journey. xx
Thank you for this video. I have been watching you from the start! I am so invested in your Journey! 💖 I am struggling with secondary infertility after having 2 kids. We have been trying for baby #3 for 2 years. I really want to get pregnant naturally. I think my problem is that I spot through my luteal phase. I have been taking maca and vitex to try to help. I did do 3 cycles of unsuccessful Clomid. Next step is to get my husband check out. I am loving reading everyones stories!! Such an amazing idea!
Grateful to you for sharing this video. That was such a great effort by you. Being infertile is very painful. They suffer a lot due to it. I will definitely share it with my friends. Keep it up!
I have been watching your videos today And skipping through to the ones that peak my interest. Honestly can't believe how so many people are going through. Can't wait to graduate to obygn🙏. Send all the Mama's to be good vibes. And don't ever get upset if you see others pregnant. Because we each have our journey mine has been a process 15yrs and this day I get excited for all Mama's to be. Had has His mysterious ways.
Such an inspirational video. I love your channel. I think you are doing a great job. I myself am on this infertility journey and some days are very rough. Your videos help me feel less alone. Thank you so much for that. Keep uploading. Also, best of luck for your IVF cycle.
My story: My husband at only 19 years old was catastrophically injured while deployed to Afganistan due to an ied blast and paralyzed resulting in a male-factor infertility condition known as anaejaculation. I had a traumatic childhood and was so sure I never wanted children. I wanted a tubal from the time I was 18 until 27 when my obgyn who was retiring final agreed and tied my tubes. Then, I met my husband in 2016, we knew from the moment we met that this was the relationship we'd both been searching for our entire lives. We decided that we also wanted a family together. I had guilt over my tubal but IVF was our only option due to my husband's injuries. We've been through one cycle which resulted in no blasts. We will be cycling again next month.
The Lady and the Cripple oh I so hope you get your baby💚
Bless your heart! You are STRONG! I hope IVF brings you these babies. Praying for a successful next cycle!!!
Thanks for sharing your story! My story: Secondary infertility, one living daughter. Last year on 22 April 17, I had a miscarriage at 10 weeks. 4 IUIs and one home insemination later, I've gone to RE #2. Meeting on 01 May to discuss my test results, prognosis and next steps. Every cycle that I don't get a positive pregnancy test is like a little death. #FliptheScript #NIAW #InfertilitySucks
Infertility takes a lot out of a woman. I was facing infertility due to cervix incompetence disease. I wasted 10 years in trying to conceive. I always wanted to give birth to a baby and to be a mother. My husband was not agreed first with me to give birth in unnatural ways. Later, he too wanted babies badly. I was really happy. We tried IVF first but failed. Then, I decided to go for surrogacy. I wanted a baby and my husband supported me a lot. We went to the suggested clinic. We found our surrogate in the clinic. When she got pregnant the clinic provided us the authority on a baby. We are now blessed with a baby boy.
Hi! This is a very emotional video. I am glad that you are sharing your story with us. I feel so sorry for you. I know how hard infertility can be to cope with but we must never give up hope and keep trying. I wish you the best of luck take care.
Grateful to you for sharing this video. That was really a great and nice effort from your side. Being infertile is very hard. They suffer very much difficulties due to it. I will definitely share it with my friends. Keep it up!
Hello. So nice of you for sharing such video. My better half and I were ttc for 10 years. We confronted infertility and I was the reason. I was so disturbed. My better half never said yet I knew he wanted children. We went for IUI yet it fizzled. So we went for surrogacy. I have a child now. I am so glad to have him.
Hello. This is such a great video. It has so much information. Infertility is really a very painful thing to go through. It is good to know that im not alone. Thank you for making this video.
Hey there. How are you doing? I hope its all great. I know how hard infertility can be. I am an infertile person. I am glad options like surrogacy and IVF are there. I wish everyone good luck. Take care.
Hey. I hope you do good. I am in the same boat. I could not conceive naturally. I am a victim of infertility. My first IVF cycle failed. The second attempted failed too. I was all hopeless. My husband wanted me to give it another try. Only because of him, I agreed. This time with a new hope and courage. It worked the 3rd time. I am so glad. Miracles do happen. I am a blessed mother now. :))
Hey! hope so you are doing well. I just watched your video. Quite interesting it is. I am heart patient. Suffering from the cardio stenosis. That's why I'm not able to conceive naturally. I have declared infertile by my doctors. Then I adopted surrogacy. And it made my life filled with colors.
Keep making such type of videos to spread awareness among people.
My appreciation.
My husband and I have been together for 10 years (11 this August) and married for 7 years this June. We started trying for my son in the summer of 2012 and got pregnant in June 2013, naturally. He was born in February 2014 and just turned 4. Right after his 1st birthday in 2015 we decided we wanted to start trying again, so we did. We knew it might take us awhile since it took us a year with our first. In September 2016 I got pregnant and miscarried two weeks later. I saw my OBGYN and she said that maybe I wasn't ovulating every month like I should, so she gave us femara and I used it for 6 months....no babies. Then in summer of 2017 we had two natural IUIs, both failed. We got pregnant in December of 2017 on our own again and I miscarried again right before Christmas. We just finished our first IUI with Clomid with our fertility clinic and I found out today it didn't work. Infertility, whether it be primary or secondary is so so so hard. It is like everyone else gets pregnant and you don't/can't. Then they don't know your story and say things like "omg I cant wait until this pregnancy is over" or they only try and get on their first try. You just want to scream and say "DONT SAY THOSE THINGS YOU ARE SO LUCKY!" Not to mention how expensive infertility can be. I think about being pregnant and the fact that I am not every...single....day, but channels and ladies like you help so much. I wish everyone lots of baby dust and I hope we get our babies soon.
It's terrible, now matter how or why, infertility is just horrible! I hope you get your precious baby soon as well! Prayers for you on your journey!
I will pray for you all who want a baby so badly
Makes me almost feel guilty as My husband and I got pregnant in the first 3 months that we were trying ... we also wanted a baby so badly and were blessed to not experience infertility
I will pray for you all 🙏🦋🌷
NEVER feel guilty! Congrats mama!
Infertility is the worst nightmare for a married woman. I am 43 years old but i have no luck with children. I conceived for 3 times but resulted in miscarriage. I was heart broken and sad. But than my friend told me about surrogacy. I started looking for surrogacy. I researched about surrogacy and gathered a lot of information about it. I have finally decided to go for surrogacy to have a baby now. Wish me luck.
My husband and I have been together just over 3 years, married just over 1. We’ve been TTC for almost 10 months. Went to the doctor 2 weeks ago (and my temperatures proved it this month) and he diagnosed me with ovulation dysfunction and I will be starting Clomid next month. 🤞🏼🤞🏼that I don’t pull my hair out from side effects.
Victoria Ballou I’ll be praying for you and I bet it’ll only take Clomid to get you a precious baby! I’ll make sure u pray extra that you don’t pull your hair out 😂💓🙌🏻
Hubby and I have been trying for 2 years officially TTCing and 2 unofficially; 5 years together; 2 married. We stopped using birth control about two years into our relationship. We went in to see the RE when nothing was happening and my husband was dx'ed with MFI (low motility and morphology); I was dx'd with Chronic Endometritis (not endometriosis) and Hashimoto's Disease. We tried a couple of times with medicated IUI (Femara, Ovidrel; still nothing). We made the call to start doing IVF in June and currently saving up right now.
I've been following your YT channel and IG as a source of "what to expect" and support.
Prayers for a very successful IVF! it gets so many mamas their babies!
Hey. Thank you for sharing such video. My husband and I were married 5 years back. I faced infertility and I was the reason. I was so upset. Because of me, my husband was struggling. He never said but I knew he wanted babies badly. We went for IVF but it failed. So we went for surrogacy. I have a baby now. I am so happy to have him.
My husband and I have been together 10 years and married 5. We started TTC for our first in 2013. We got pregnant early 2015 but miscarried. We had our rainbow in 2016 and we have been TTC for number 2 since March 2017. I had a feeling there was an underlying issue since it took us so long to get pregnant the first time and we have been TTC this time over a year and we finally started being seen in a fertility clinic in March 2018. We have (severe?) male factor infertility. His best specimen had 4.9 million post wash. We are going to give IUI a try this coming in May. If that doesn't work I think we are headed for IVF.
Paula K will be praying that IUI works for you! I’ve heard of it working with counts that low so don’t lose hope!
Hi there. Hope you are doing fine. This is a nice video. Thank you so much for sharing it. Yes, Infertility definitely sucks. It is a big issue. Thankfully, methods like IVF, IUI, and Surrogacy exists for the people like us. Keep up the good work.
Hello Dear, Thanyou for your such type of for infertile mothers.I suggest surrogacy for every mother who trying to concieve for so long. My story is pretty much the same. I had cancer of the uterus. So I had surrogacy in 2015. My baby boy was born in November last year. We are currently in our second surrogacy journey. I’m so excited to become mom one more time. I wish all girls here to have happy stories as ours!
Thank you for your encouragement and openness about your journey. My Husband and i have been trying since Nov 2017, i know that it is not as long as some of the comments, but i know the disappointment of month in and month out of trying with no result, all you ladies are in my prayers.
It doesn't matter how long you've been trying -- it hurts to see negatives no matter what!!! I pray it happens for you soon! :)
My husband and I have been trying for 10 months, which doesn’t seem like a long time compared to others but feels like forever. We have mostly just tried naturally, along with an HSG test, and progesterone cream. Now I’m trying Letrozol. Fingers crossed this is our month 🤞🏻
Hello everyone. Here is my short story. I can't conceive naturally due to my heart disease. After getting so much information, finally me and my DH decided to go for surrogacy. We visited Ukraine clinic. And our procedure starts. Need your prayers.
Hey! Tough life I must say. Well, even I had two IVF failed. And at that point in time, I had left with no money. So I dropped my procedure. I went through marriage failure. And know I am a surrogacy person. I am looking forward to my procedure.
I struggled to have my son who is now 7. We tried for about 2 years and were just about to get an IUI when someone suggested going to the chiropractor and getting an adjustment. I went to the chiropractor and the chiropractor adjusted my pelvis and I was pregnant the next month.
Awesome! I wonder if this has happened for anyone else!
I and my husband are together since 2011. at that time we were not ready for the baby. So we waited and in 2014 we planned to have the baby. We ttc to conceive. But nothing happened. We tried so much for 5 years. But then a friend of mine told me about surrogacy. We go for this treatment. Now we have a very beautiful baby girl of nine months.
Hi Dear, I and My husband married 6Years ago. I was surprised by pregnant on my honeymoon. But I got miscarriage due to my poor health condition. After 1Year I got pregnant again that was the really memorable journey. We got a cute baby boy. After 3years we decide for 2nd baby. But unfortunately, we got an infertile issue. Now I have tried a lot through IVF and Still trying. Hope for good news soon.
My husband and I have been ttc for 3 years. We recently met with a Fertility specialist. During my hsg, found out that my left fallopian tube is blocked. The combination of that and my husband working offshore has not been in our favor. So we got his swimmers frozen and waiting for me to ovulate on my right side(this month it was the left) and they will do an iui once that happens. Come on righty!!
Have you considered surrogacy????

congratulations on your success. I m from Bulgaria. I Am trying to conceive for last 10 years. Unfortunately i did not find any luck with all possible methods. Last month a friend of mine told me about this new method called Surrogacy. Although its banned in our country. I do not have any choice rather then surrogacy. I have heard its legal in some countries. Kindly suggest me a suitable clinic.
Me and my husband have been together 6 yrs and married just this October. We have tried for a tubal reversal and due to Male infertility we are going through IVF. This is my first and we are due to have the Egg retrieval this Thursday. Thanks so much for the videos you post they have been a blessing to me, you are truly a kind Soul.Best of Luck to you and your Family
