To speak about infertility is taboo. It always has been and probably always will be. This is why we are sharing our experience.
We have been happily married for five years and our story started out like many others. We met at a party, fell in love, got married and then, on demand, there was supposed to be a baby in the baby carriage â or so we are all told.
When we decided that it was the right time to start a family, we quickly realized that fate had different plans. Pregnancy did not come easy for us. We ran into many speed bumps along the way as we journeyed through fertility treatments. There were tests, biopsies, medications, remedies, surgeries and hundreds upon hundreds of needles. Cycle after cycle we found ourselves heartbroken. The experience was incomprehensible and it seemed like we were alone.
