Hi Selena thank you for sharing your testimony. I’m listening at work Ive just been tearing up. I also been asking God is this what I should do. Should I continue with this FET cycle. Then I came across your video. This will be my 3rd transfer & I’m letting God take control. God put the name Esperanza in my heart. I believe He’s telling me to have Hope. My husband isn’t saved however going through this process God has been revealing himself to him. Please keep us in your prayers. 🤍

I need to be more positive. I mean what a wonderful success story and so happy for her that she ended up having her miracle baby. I am 30 with stage 4 endometriosis and lost a tube to my ectopic pregnancy and prior to that I have had 3 biochemicals. We are just starting IVF and I am sitting here worried that I am not gonna have a child. I think some days it’s doable and some days it’s hard. I get in my head and these stories actually do help to keep a positive outlook. Thank you for sharing this!

Had 7 egg retrievals and scouring the internet for hysteroscopy because it’s something new and scared as I did my first egg retrieval because never been under anesthesia until this. I’m still embarrassed and vulnerable having my doc and team taking care of me. I’ve been more of helping people than people helping me esp when I’m completely knocked out and naked. But I know it’s just normal. And should be normalized. Just real feelings, but acknowledged and now to just prep for an fet.

Hi Salina! I just bawled my eyes out watching this video. Years ago when I started my IVF journey you were also starting yours and we were going through the exact same thing, felt like almost at the exact time. Every time I would click on one of your new videos it would be like what had happen to me that week lol Then you got pregnant with Valentina and a while after I got pregnant with Summer. I retracted from KZbin and IG and the world to enjoy my daughter lol she is now two months away from her second birthday and my husband and a I are back at the clinic to use a boy embryo and I decided to click and see if you were still doing videos. What a beautiful motivational surprise to see you and Mondo still growing your family Valentina is so big and Isaiah! God Bless and THANK YOU for sharing your journey it has really done so much for me! I need this!

Congratulations on your precious baby girl. I do understand getting away from social media for a while. I too needed that for my soul. Well, thank you for stopping by and if you feel up to it, please let me know how the upcoming transfer goes. I pray you continue to find peace on this journey of yours. Blessings to you, my friend!

I have to honest and think it may be a little of a defense mechanism also. As you gear up for it, you may find that you care more about it. I’m going through the same thing though.
