In October 2023, one week after our 3rd miscarriage, I boarded a flight to my very first Moms in the Making conference. I walked in so angry with God that I couldn’t even lift my hands and worship. I didn’t understand how these women all around me could have so much hope and joy in the midst of deep grief.
I started leading a group five years ago, in July 2021. It was a leap of faith to even begin because I was moving across the country and did not yet have a house where I could host the group. I was the first woman in the group to become pregnant and announce my pregnancy. A few years ago, we
My husband and I got married in August of 2021. After 6 months of trying to have a baby, we ended up at our first fertility clinic. We were so unsure of what to expect. The doctor told us we would never have a baby without medical intervention and that IVF was our only option. We were devastated. We did
When I joined Moms in the Making in the middle of the Fall 2021 semester, I was truly struggling with my mental health. At the time, my husband, Tyler, and I had been trying to grow our family since 2018. I was also wrestling with my faith, wondering if something I had done in the past had caused our infertility.
Our journey to starting a family began two years into marriage. We were young, healthy, and honestly, a little naïve to the reality of infertility. After a year of trying, we saw a specialist, and that’s when I was diagnosed with endometriosis. I had surgery to remove scar tissue, and we began the long road of fertility treatments. Month after
Moms in the Making was crucial to my infertility journey. I was the only one in my family who had ever struggled with conceiving, and while they were so supportive, they couldn’t fully grasp the pain I was experiencing. At the same time, I was also searching for Christian fellowship, but having a hard time finding it. To not only
Four years ago, I sat in my living room with four other women, praying, crying, and dreaming of our future miracle babies as we bonded over infertility and loss. We were part of a Moms in the Making group, and during that time, we leaned on each other, shared our struggles, and prayed fervently for God’s intervention in our lives.
In 2023, during one of the worship sessions at the Moms in the Making conference, three of my friends and I danced together in faith. For one reason or another, all of us had been told that having babies was impossible. But we knew that God had the final say, so we danced in praise anyway. Over the next few
My husband and I decided to start trying for a baby December 2015. I naively thought we would get pregnant right away, like most of our friends. That wasn’t the case though. At first, my doctor wasn’t too concerned, but after a while, she suggested testing and trying medication. I wasn’t on board. I personally felt like we were supposed
Recently I shared a testimony of attending the Moms in the Making conference and how it completely changed my life. Well, I wanted to testify again. After coming home from the conference, I decided I had one transfer left in me. Feeling absolutely nothing but hope, we talked to my doctor and set up our final transfer. You know, the
We want to hear your story! Where has God done in your life? Your testimony could be the very thing that restores hope, strengthens faith, and reminds someone else that God sees them and has not forgotten their story.
