Overjoyed!!

One of my best friends from high school and I started TTC around the same time. After the first year of trying we started a little support group with a few of our other friends that struggled with infertility and ended up doing IVF to have their babies. It was a wonderful place to vent, get more information and just not feel so alone.

When I found out I was pregnant (almost another year later) I was over the moon excited!! I wanted to tell my bf right away but she was in the middle of an iui round and the timing didn't feel right. She was very nervous and I feared it would add stress or add more pressure and it was honestly to early to tell anyone.

A week later she found out the iui didn't work (it was her third). Now I felt like I shouldn't tell her because she was devastated. I was heartbroken for her and it made it a little hard to really enjoy my great news. (I did eventually tell her and she was thrilled but it was very difficult for me still)
Fast forward to now! I am overjoyed because She just received a grant to do a round of IVF!!! Her doctor believes this is her best chance to conceive! I know it is not a guarantee but it positive and she feels like things are finally starting to fall in place!! I have been crying happy tears for two days!!
To all the IVF mommies and ladies that had struggles in the past I am sure you can relate! I am so excited for all of our babies!! I will keep praying for all you Bumpies out there and if you could add my friend to your list it would be great!! Thanks:)

    As happy as I am for people when they get pregnant, nothing makes my heart sing quite like the news of someone who has dealt with infertility getting pregnant. I wish your friend all the best!

    We struggled for 5 years to conceive - went through surgery, drugs, injections, iui and ended up MC. IVF was too expensive, so we kind of gave up on having a child of our own and started looking into adoption. Then one day I randomly got nauseous at work. Thought I was coming down with something... I didn't tell anyone for days because I didn't believe it. I always tell women who struggle with infertility to never lose hope. I will keep your friend in my thoughts.

    that is quite awesome! i love when women are able to have the chance to do  all of these things to help them conceive. I was told i couldn't have children at all and as we were very broke up until a couple years ago we couldn't hope to pay for treatment and didnt know anyway to get help doing it. since he was 14 years older than me we decided to travel and love foster children if we ever were able to. we started saving up money and within the 6 years we were together we almost never used any type of protection and nothing.. i had finally gave up hoping it might happen when i started to feel off, no vomiting or anything just my body felt different. it was the day i was supposed to start so we decided to take a test and surprise!!! baby. i truly hope all goes well with your friend and will keep her in my prayers!!!

    How exciting!! I'll keep my fingers crossed for her! My parents also did IVF for a couple rounds, because my mom had severe uterine damage, and after a stressful pregnancy, ended up having my baby brother 13 years ago! Perfectly healthy and a rascal.
