I have always been team Healthy Baby throughout my IVF journey. After PGT-A, we only had two embryos that just so happened to be one of each sex. When our doctor asked if we had a preference, we told her we wanted to transfer the one that had the highest likelihood of a live birth and were fortunate to deliver our beautiful son to term. He turns 2 in September and I’m currently pregnant with his sibling. We are so happy that both embryos stuck but could have seriously cared less what sex they were. So many people tell us how *lucky* we are to have had one of each but here’s what’s important to understand: two embryos does not guarantee two babies! I know people who have had many more embryos than we did who still walked away empty handed. 💔 And when someone is on an IVF journey, the child’s sex is usually (at least for me) a moot point. And yes, it’s OK to ask but if someone doesn’t give you the answer you were looking for, accept it and move on. ♥️✌️ #ivfjourney #ivf #ivfawareness
If you're wondering what to expect during a natural cycle frozen embryo transfer, I’m walking you through exactly what mine looked like. Unlike a programmed cycle, a natural FET is timed with your body’s own ovulation. I trusted this path because it worked for my first pregnancy and I wanted to give our second embryo the same chance. This day was hopeful, empowering, and a full-circle moment in my IVF journey. Whether you're gearing up for a transfer, somewhere in the thick of treatment, or supporting someone who is, I hope this helps you feel a little more prepared… and a little less alone. 💛 #EmbryoTransferJourney #NaturalCycleFET #IVFJourney #TTCCommunity #InfertilitySupport #FertilityJourney #TryingToConceive #NaturalFET #FrozenEmbryoTransfer #IVFSuccess #HopefulMama #creatorsearchinsights
