The Summer I Went Through Fertility TreatmentšŸ¤ The Summer I Went Through Fertility TreatmentšŸ¤

No, I’m not pregnant. YetšŸ¤žšŸ¼
I’m finally ready to share what my world and entailed the past year or so. 

We got married in 2021 and like many couples decided to wait a few years before trying to have a baby. 2 years passed and we decided we were ready. Little did we know that would start a journey filled with heartbreak and frustration. 

A year came and went - no positive tests. So the obsession started; tracking ovulation, supplements, bloodwork. You name it - I’ve probably tried it! I went to my gynecologist and got put on a dreaded waiting list for an HSG. 5 months later no call back. So I decided to call a fertility clinic in January 2025, they saw me two days later. 

With a fabulous team of doctors, NPs, PAs, and nurses I got to where I am now. I have no diagnosis, and neither does my husband - bloodwork good, egg quality amazing, no cysts, fallopian tubes functioning, etc. On paper I’m good and still a mystery!

We opted for 3 rounds of IUI’s, all unsuccessful and traumatizing. So onto IVF. 

I’ve spent my last few weeks getting injection after injection, so much bloodwork, so many ultrasounds. And today we went do Maryland for an egg retrieval. 

This was not the summer I was imagining, but I’m so beyond thankful I was able to have this journey (and also get most of it paid by insurancešŸ˜‰). So now we wait on our 17 mature eggsšŸ™šŸ¼ 

I will likely keep my embryo transfer journey private until I have a confirmed pregnancy. But getting all of this off my chest I feel comfortable to post and share againšŸ«¶šŸ¼

If you are going through an infertility journey - whether it’s been short or long. I pray for you. I grieve for you. I am you! My heart breaks for you.

Unhelpful and hurtful comments will be deleted. šŸš«ā€œjust relax!ā€ ā€œget drunkā€ ā€œit’ll happen when you least expect it!ā€šŸš« 

A special thank you to my handful of friends who have been my angels on earth this year. You know who you are✨
