Harder Than It Should Be

Having a baby should be easy and free! Raising them and feeding them should be the hard part but that's not our case. We are going though the process of IVF- in-vitro fertilization. Realizing that IVF would be our only option to have a biological kid has been a rollercoaster ride.  How it all started: We started to try after 1 year of being married. I stop taking the pill in hopes that I would get pregnant fast but month after month I kept getting my period. In October of 2014 I was late for my period and took a pregnancy test. It was positive! The happiest and scariest moment of our lives. It was a false positive. After trying for 1 year we knew their must be something wrong because we can't get pregnant so we went to a fertility doctor. They did an ultrasound and they were confused because everything look good and I was about to ovulate so they told us to have a lot of sex and lay in bed 20 min afterwards. After a month we still didn't get pregnant so they tested my husband. My husband had 1 sperm cell alive from the sample. My husband has a low sperm count and no motility. They gave my husband HCG to inject but it didn't do anything. They told us the only option would be IVF. So here we are.





Take a peek into our lives as we begin our journey. We are determined to make it to a happy ending. We will share everything with you. From our emotions, to our treatment cost. Please feel free to ask us questions. Prayers are also always welcome. So I want to welcome you to our blog and hopefully after this journey ends we will both be changing dirty diapers and taking turns in getting up in the middle of the night.
