    Just an FYI regarding the person who asked if they can go through IVF in their 40’s. I am 44 and going through IVF now. Just had my egg retrieval and they got 11 eggs 😁. Just recommend genetic testing for all embryos if your over 40.

    Love love love hearing your whole story. As a fellow IVF warrior who is about to start my 6th egg retrieval your story gives me hope 💗 I also have low AMH for my age and don’t get a lot of eggs and have had a few miscarriages and hearing stories of people getting their babies always keep me going!!💗💗

    I love this❤️ I think I mentioned this in your other video , but you are a Godsend. I had trouble as well but didn’t actively pursue a specialist until you encouraged me on IG. Two rounds of IUI later, I’m pregnant with twins. Your other video where you talked about letting go of anxiety after miscarriage also helped me to loosen up and enjoy each day of my pregnancy. I’m 14 weeks today. God bless you , Belinda. Your baby is going to be one of the luckiest to have a mama like you ❤️

    Los tiempos de Dios son perfectos. We were trying to consive for almost 3 years and just kept failing. It almost became an obsesio tracking taking my temp. Etc. Feeling frustrated and not understanding "why not me" Towards the end i just left it to God, maybe i wasnt meant to ne a mom. I started my own little business and focised on that. In June that next year i wemt to a new Gyno i was waiting months to see and told them we wanted to consive after a few tests and them coming back abnormal... surprise i was already pregnate. I have a 2yr old little boy, I've had a miscarriage last April and im currently 17wks pregnate with another boy. Im 37years old and so blessed. Im soooo happy for you and i know that that time you took consentrating on other things is that you put it in Gods hands and je answered.

    Congratulations 🎉🎊 Very happy for you and Ricardo. Can’t wait for your baby to be here and to see you as a mommy. I can relate to you in so many ways. My husband and I have been together for almost 10 years and still have not been able to conceive and you give me a lot of hope. We’ve never really considered IVF but I will definitely keep it in mind. If you don’t mind, I wanted to ask, what type of insurance did you have?

    IVF is amazing. My husband and I tried for 7 years and ended up doing IVF. We did one cycle and three frozen embryo transfers. My baby girl is 3.5 years old and the love of my life. We currently have one embryo frozen away for when we try our last transfer.

    I was able to have a child he is will be 2 years old in July it took us 4years but my experience is I had to have a c section because I Gartner's duct cyst (only forms during pregnancy) that was 8 by 4 by 5 on my vaginal wall and it seems because if that Gartner duct cyst is caused nothing but problems after that and I did get it removed like 4 months after I had my son and then after that I got perianal abcess come up and I had to have surgery twice one on each side and then I just had Surgery in April because both sides opened back up because another abcess formed and this surgeon that I finally found that did my last one said it was caused by the Gartner duct cyst for this to happen and I'm so scared right now because I want to be able to have another child but in afraid the same things will happen again and I don't want to go through this process again of surgeries I was told my obgyn that each pregnancy is different and that my reproductive system is fine and it's something to do with my nerves down there which I have no idea what that means ( she didn't want to get me seen about the perianal abcess that were happening she said it looked normal but it wasn't normal) so I stopped seeing her im currently looking for a different obgyn I wonder if a fertility specialist would know anything about that

      @BelindaSelene  4 роки тому +2

      I only shared my struggle with infertility with people I could trust and was extremely close with who I felt understood me with no judgement. When people would ask why we don't have children yet we would simply say it's all in god's timing. It would usually stop them from asking more questions.

      Me and my husband were trying for 3 and half years and we were also diagnosed with unexplained Infertility which was so frustrating as to which course we should take, but after we hit 3 years I decided I was going to take control of my fertility and started taking a few supplements, cutting out dairy and soy, and exercising...even my baby dancing routine changed and finally I got pregnant naturally in December and I'm currently expecting a healthy baby girl! You got this girl and I wish you a strong and healthy journey!

    Love you, love all your videos, but PLEASE don’t say “we wanted to have one of our own.” I know you mean “we wanted a biological child.” As an adoptive mom, my daughter is very much “my own,” even though we’re not biologically related. It’s super easy for people to wave it away and just say “you know what I meant,” and I did...but please, try to update your terminology. Thank you, and I can’t wait for the gender reveal! 🌷
