Our Story

  • Relationship: Mikey and I have been together for 10 years, and from the very beginning, he has been my best friend and my favorite person.
  • Marriage: We were married in August of 2019 and stepped into marriage full of love, faith, and excitement for the family we dreamed of building together.
  • Challenges: Our journey to grow that family hasn’t been easy. We experienced our first pregnancy in May of 2019, which ended in miscarriage.
  • IVF Journey: After years of hoping and waiting, we began IVF in November of 2024.

Current Status

  • Embryo Transfers: Since then, we have gone through four embryo transfers. Two were unsuccessful, and two ended in heartbreaking miscarriage.
  • Hope: We are still in this fight, with 4 embryos remaining and hope still very much alive in our hearts.
  • Strengthened Bond: This journey has tested us in ways we never imagined, but it has also strengthened our love, our resilience, and our trust in God’s plan for our lives.
  • Gratitude: We are so grateful for the love, prayers, and support from those around us—it means more than we can ever express.

Message of Hope

  • Faith: We truly believe that God is writing our story, even in the uncertainty.
  • Promise: We are holding onto His promises as we continue forward.
  • Thank You: Thank you for standing with us as we continue to trust, hope, and fight for the family we’ve been dreaming of.
