My fiance and I started trying in October 2015. We finally got our first BFP in May 2017, but unfortunately I miscarried at 6w. We continued to try on our own until October 2017 when we went to go see a specialist. Out fertility doctor did some tests and then told us that my hormones were so out of whack that my chances of getting pregnant again where about 3%. On top of that he told me if we did end up getting pregnant the chances were high that I would miscarry again without some kind of medical intervention. We were devastated. We agreed to do clomid and controlled cycles. We started in January 2018, but by June we still weren't pregnant and our doctor started talking about IVF. By that time we were tapped financially, so we decided to push off any more fertility treatments until we could afford them without taking out a loan. Fast forward to December 2018 (about a week before Christmas) and I felt like complete and utter crap! I was nauseous, sore, and completely drained. I honestly thought I was coming down with the flu. I just happened to open my Glow app to check out some posts and noticed that I was actually a week late so I decided to take that last test I had stashed in the back of my bathroom cabinet. It was positive within seconds and I was shocked. I probably took a dozen more after that just to make sure. I was terrified that I would lose that baby too, but on August 16, 2019 I gave birth to a healthy baby boy who is currently using my lab as his bed. Even if the doctors tell you it can't or won't happen, just know that there is still hope.

My SO and I have been together for 10 years and have been trying for the last 6. I found out 2 years ago that I had a 7cm endometrioma on my right ovary. Had surgery via laparoscopy which is when I found out that I had severe endometriosis which the removed with ablation all that they could see. My OB wanted me to try lupron which was another 6 months. He told us if that did not work, we would need to see a fertility specialist because IVF may be our only option, but we do not have that kind of money. I was unsure but was hoping it might better our chances. Fast forward a year later after surgery and course of lupron, when it finally wore off in April, I received my cycle back in July and we conceived FINALLY in August! We are so thrilled and I am currently 11 weeks!!
