6 years ago I never imagined things would be so hard... 8 years together, & almost 5 years (July 15th, 2016) married to the love of my life & best friend.
Thru the last 6 years of heartache, I have truly been reminded of so many things.. One of those being how lucky I truly am to have his love & support thru even the hardest of times.
Growing up they always said "don't have unprotected sex or you'll end up pregnant" if only things were always that easy. Writing posts as vulnerable as this have always been hard for me, but if I have learned anything these past few months it's that the #infertility community are super supportive. They're part of the worst club with the best members & being vulnerable is ok.
August 2020 I realized something was wrong, after 6 heart breaking years of trying & asking for help... Multiple tests, we have finally found out our problems are a double whammy & double the heartbreak. I was diagnosed with PCOS in October, found out last week I also have low ovarian reserve & we found out a few months ago we have MFI (Male factor infertility) against us too... Last week we were told our only option for having a baby is thru IVF, definitely not the news we wanted or were hoping for, but I refuse to give up hope or my biggest dream.
I am a very strong person & capable of hard things. Things may not be working out how I planned but they will work out.
