You give off such a peaceful vibe in this video! I am so happy to hear you're going to therapy and getting into the Word. I can tell you've grown so much in this video. I am "joining" you on your break. My husband and I got pregnant with our second IUI in November but it just ended in a loss last week. I totally understand the need to nurture yourself during this time and am actually looking forward to time off after an almost 2 year journey. I resonate so much with everything you said. Here's to getting healthy (spiritually, mentally, physically) to be the best we can be for ourselves and (lord willing) future baby down the road! :)
I want to start off by saying I’m so sorry…. Going through infertility on top of a miscarriage is something I can’t even fathom. I will be praying for you and your husband during your break. Sometimes I think, maybe a break is something we need after going through fertility treatments. We put ourselves through so much physically, mentally, and emotionally that we forget about ourselves in the process. I’ll be praying that you’ll hear good news soon 🫶🫶🫶
I came across your video today I just wanna say thank you for being so transparent in your baby journey. It’s so easy to feel alone during the process please know you’re not alone so many women go through this journey. We are 3 years in to our fertility journey and it’s been very challenging as well. I’ll be praying for you and your husband 🙏🏽
Thank you soooo much for leaving this comment. I will continue to pray for all the families going through infertility and for you and your husband as well. Thank you so much for sending good vibes my way 🫶
Thank you so much for the update 🩷 I know it’s been so hard.. Going to start first IVF this month. There’s been lot of crying and accepting this process. Really thankful for your video!
Thank you so much for reaching out :) I’ll be praying for you as your start your IVF journey. I know exactly what you mean. Accepting the process was very difficult for me as well. As for the financial aspects of it, I still had to pay everything with the procedures and meds I did. I didn’t have to pay for PGTA testing or the freezing/transfer portion of it, but all the services I went through, I had to pay.
@@AngiesTable Ahh yes that makes sense. I was just curious because I was pretty shocked at the IVF portion with insurance it was around 11k without around 16k. Not including medications which cost around 3k with insurance. Does that sound about around how much you also had to pay for? The money part was pretty devastating too. I can’t imagine how we would pay for this if we weren’t able too….
My insurance did cover most of my IVF portion because I have up to $25,000 of coverage for fertility treatment in a lifetime. PLUS I had reached my deductible because of all the IUI’s I did so it didn’t cost too much, luckily. But we did still have to pay a couple thousand out of pocket for IVF!
Hi, I am a new subbie but praying for you and your husband. I just want to support journeys! I am hopeful for you. You seem to have a heart of gold. My husband and I are going through our own separate journey. He’s 38 and I’m 34. Just hoping for the best. 💕💕
Thank you so much for following me and my journey! Your support means everything to me 🫶 We got this!!! I will continuously be praying for this community which includes your family. Let’s not lose hope 🤍🤍🤍
You are the same age as me, and your hubby is the same age as mine. Tryjng for just under a year, considering IVF and IUI this year, but really want to conceive naturally 😢😢❤❤
@@kaydeep7880 hi! Yes, I am trying at this age because I grew up believing I should solely focus on school and career. I’ve given so much time to a baby that I could never hold per se…and now I am married and my husband and I lost our second baby a week before our first anniversary last month. I have fully gone through my emotions…I believe God has a special assignment for us as women and with our husbands. If Mary had a baby before ever conceiving with her husband, then I believe God can bring forth life within a womb reserved for a living child. God has you on this journey for a reason! Be patient and cling to your partner. We got this. In due time.
Oh man my heart breaks for you Angie. It's absolutely devastating and I totally get the complex emotions (including depression, despair, anger, disbelief etc) that goes with unsuccessful ART. First of all, this is not your fault and there isn't anything to be ashamed about. Unfortunately there's a lot of random chance/ luck involved with conception (spontaneous and assisted) which is out of our control, and is incredibly frustrating. I also took a 2-3 month break after my last unsuccessful round which was awful initially because I felt stagnant/ stuck, and back to square one but eventually after a lot of crying, the dark fog is slowly lifting and i'm starting to feel a little bit hopeful again. Having a break is definitely a good idea esp after all the trauma you've been though. My husband and I signed up to yoga classes, went on walks/hikes and I started reading again, which have been helpful. Completely agree with setting boundaries. I had a traumatic experience where a few close friends who surprisingly announced their pregnancies at a public event we attended and then proceeded to say hurtful things to me afterwards when they found out about our fertility issues (not on purpose but I think they just don't know how to deal with the discomfort) and I've decided to minimise contact with these friends at least for now, which has been better for my mental health. Also you don't have to set a time limit on your break, you can restart when you both feel ready. Or if you don't want to, that's ok! And you're right, there is so much more to life than babies; hard to remember when we're so fixated on this goal. I really hope you have a peaceful, healing and contentful 2025 Angie! You are definitely not alone! ❤
I found listening to podcasts from people with lived experience made the process slightly less lonely. For some reason this podcast helped me a lot Magic Mindset: The FertiliTEA Podcast
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️ for now, this break feels so right. We’re just taking it easy and just enjoying our lives, us two. I’m so sorry about your traumatic experiences… that would make me so upset 😭 I don’t think I could’ve handled it like you did. Hoping 2025 is going to be the year 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for sharing your story. I just went through an ectopic pregnancy and lost a tube. We started thinking about IVF in order to prevent another surgery, but I had no idea what was involved. Blessings and baby dust to you ❤
Oh no, I’m so sorry…. My heart aches for you. If you ever need someone to talk, don’t hesitate to reach out! Sending blessings and baby dust to you as well 🫶🫶🫶
Thanks for watching! Yes! We’ll reassess it once we feel like we’re ready to revisit it after the break from fertility treatments. Thanks for the warm wishes!!

I was also wondering. What happens to the money for the IVF since it failed in the middle? Worried about that part.

@ Thank you ❤️
Maybe you should reassess the reasons why you need to do IVF. My wife and I have done IVF. Don’t give up! Wishing you the best ✝️
