Still Can't Believe it 😩💓
We tried for 3 YEARS. 
We spent the second year with my endometriosis going from manageable to Stage IV- I had surgery to remove it and we thought we'd for sure conceive.
We spent the last year undergoing initial fertility testing.
On Nov 28th, we finally started more in-depth testing at a fertility clinic.
On January 11th, we were told my husband had a low percentage of normal morphology sperm and I also had lowered ovarian reserve. The specialist said we had a 1% chance of natural conception, and it was time to be aggressive. IVF is all that would work for us.
On January 16th, we paid for IVF. The pharmacy placed our order for medications and we got a calendar for treatment.
On January 23, after being 5 days late waiting on a period to start meds, I tested positive twice for the first time ever. I had never even had a faint line. Not just positives, but STRONG positives. Then my clinic confirmed with a blood draw.
On Monday, we heard the baby's heartbeat. Today, I'm 7w1d and the morning sickness is so real, but I couldn't be stronger in my faith.
I've heard these stories so many times and thought they were infuriating! Why go through all this struggle, only to finally have a game plan and then it fall through? It's amazing. We are so happy and can't believe all this pain and sadness is finally coming to an end. The best end: a baby 💓
