You’re amazing and strong (great qualities for motherhood) to have written about this! At 34, I was diagnosed with Diminished Ovarian Reserve and unexplained infertility. My AMH was 0.2 and after 2 heartbreaking years of TTC with my husband, we turned to IVF. It wasn’t the path I ever thought I’d take, the terror of fertility doctors and bad news was a roller coaster but I did one cycle of “mini IVF” (low stim meds), we got 3 eggs, 1 viable…our son turns 2 this Wednesday. Your baby is worth every second of the journey you’re on now. Good luck 💛
I’m so sorry. I’m on a similar journey though mine is related to low ovarian reserve. I’ll be holding you close to my heart and thinking good thoughts on your behalf 💗💓✨
Wow thank you for your vulnerability. We just had our first appointment with an RE on Friday. It is such a strange and isolating feeling, but every time I hear someone else is going through it too, I feel a little less alone. But it breaks my heart to know this is a shared pain.
I made st Gerard prayer cards and have them next to my bed and tucked into the bathroom mirror. I’m wearing a fertility necklace and a Saint Anthony chain (someone said he can help with this too… what can’t that guy do?!) My mom and I were also thinking about a little trip to the psychic so I think this was just the encouragement we needed! Sending you hug and so much love ♥️
Sending you so much love as you and Ben navigate this! It's so hard to go through hard things in private so I'm glad you're leaning on your people and thank you for sharing it with us too!
Thank you for being so open with the nuance and wildly varying emotions here. The anxiety and overthinking / sudden calm cycles resonate so much with me. I don’t know you, but sending love your way. ♥️

Saint Anthony — a miracle worker! I'll DM you the name of the psychic we went to. She's in Northern NJ. Sending you so much love.

There are so many options for you if you’re open, check out the Pasinis on YouTube.
