I never imagined that infertility would be part of my story. Just three months after getting married, I found myself pregnant with our daughter, who was born in July 2019. It wasn’t until we started trying for another baby that I learned about secondary infertility. I was diagnosed with low ovarian reserve, and since I was already in my 40s,
I got married in 2019, and in March 2021, we became first-time parents to our daughter. Her premature birth and minor hemorrhaging made for a difficult start, but we healed and thrived as a family of three. In the spring of 2022, we began trying to grow our family again. After six months with no success, we were introduced to
My husband and I were married 6 years with an 18 month old son when we started trying for another baby. About a year into trying, my doctor put me on Metformin saying I might have PCOS. A year later and we were ready to meet with a specialist. My levels had improved, but the diagnosis we received was unexplained
I was diagnosed with PCOS in 2016 but after only a month of meds I conceived my son, Hunter. So when we started trying for #2 I didn’t think it would be difficult. Our first medicated cycle at the fertility clinic was successful but then we quickly lost the baby. Our first IUI was also successful before another baby went to heaven.
When our daughter was two, we tried for a second child on our own for a year with no luck. When I decided to go to the Doctor, he decided to start me on clomid. After two years, we decided to seek help at a fertility clinic. Months of testing to check hormone levels, monitoring ovulation, and even checking sperm
I am a year and a half into my journey with secondary infertility, which is the inability to become pregnant or to carry a baby to term after previously giving birth to a baby. The stigma that secondary infertility carries is painful, which is why I wanted to share today. I’m here to speak for those ladies that feel the pain that comes
My husband is a Marine and while we were stationed at Camp Lejune in Florida we started looking for a church and trying to get pregnant. We tried for about a year before seeking professional help. I went to a fertility doctor, had a few test done, and after one round of basic fertility medicine we were pregnant. About 5 months
I am in year 3 of trying for baby #2. We had no problems getting pregnant the 1st time and when we started trying for baby #2 I got pregnant after about 6 months. However, I ended up in the hospital and I miscarried. In addition I was told I needed to have my right fallopian tube removed. I was at church on a Sunday morning praying
My husband and I were married in 2013 and we knew that we wanted children soon. In February 2014 we found out we were pregnant after just one month of trying to conceive. Shortly before Mason turned 2, we decided we wanted to try to conceive our second child. We thought it wouldn’t take us long to conceive because we
I had primary and secondary infertility. Our journey just involved a lot of waiting. I joined the prayer partner program this summer and I was matched with a partner that I second guessed at first. She was 10 years younger than me, completely different diagnoses, she had primary I had secondary, and we didn’t even live in the same country..We
