Heartfelt Stories
“I let my partner take the call from the clinic. I was lying on the bed, wrapped in a blanket, clutching a good luck bracelet my sister had given me. I kept whispering, ‘Please, God, please.’ When I heard him rushing up the stairs, I knew it was good news. I threw off the covers, and there he was, standing in the doorway, tears in his eyes, just nodding. We embraced and cried together. The mix of relief and joy was surreal. After two long years of trying, we went to the pharmacy and bought a stack of home pregnancy tests, just to be sure. And there they were, two pink lines!” — Sarah L.
“We had experienced several rounds of IVF, and our first frozen embryo transfer didn’t work, which left us puzzled. The embryo had been genetically tested and was of excellent quality, so we weren’t sure what went wrong. When we finally got the news that our latest transfer was successful, it felt like a miracle. I was shocked and overwhelmed with happiness.” — Emily R.
