We are 25 weeks pregnant with our IVF baby! Today we had our fetal echocardiogram done with our MFM (maternal fetal medicine) or high risk OB.

IVF babies have a higher chance of heart defects so going into the anatomy scan (19-20 weeks) made me super nervous. Today, we received...

"Brain whoooooo" brain you scared me

Tornado alert 🚨🌪⚠️⛈🌩⚡️⛈
Hope you’re ok 2024
them clouds are not dark I saw clouds that are pitch black
There’s only hard rain here in uae
I ❤ Nados but when I was in one 2 weeks ago I was scared as hell
Hi Carissa, I watched this video of yours 5 years ago. That time i was married for 4 or 5 years. How are you doing. I hope that you dreams came true. I need some inspiration. 9 years of TTC and I am here again.
Hello ,I am also TTC, replying to you for you to know you are not alone.
I need the mail 4:04
I have a closet to take shelter 3:47
What’s the hand motion
It’s very sad and frustrating when it does not work.. this is our 3rd ivf procedure. First one embryos didn’t make it after transfer. Second round we transferred 3 and my wife got pregnant but at 7 weeks she miscarried. 3rd round we have 6 embryos and transferred 2 via fresh and we just found out last week that it did not work. We are going to transfer 3 day 3 frozen embryos and pray that this works. I don’t know if my wife can handle another retrieval, it’s brutal process 😕 hoping that it works for you both!
Dr. Kiltz did my wife’s transfer at CNY Colorado. He’s a good Dr.
Today is also May 28th 4 years in the future and we are currently experiencing horrible weather
I live in Ohio who's with me 👇
Midwest people👇🏼
If everything goes well this should do the job. But listen, there's one factor that's usually overlooked that can considerably speed up the process, unfortunately I do not have it at hand, but it can be go’ogled Dobbie Nerkstrol's Infertility Cure, I think.
Yep, no matter if you’ve been called infertile or whatever, after reading Dobbie Nerkstrol's guide, I ended up pleasantly surprised. Within 60 days anyone can get pregnant, feeling the changes in your body the first few weeks. After go’ogling her I understood it's not a miracle kind of thing like the title suggests, but you can bet you'll boost your chances.
Congrats sis🎉❤
I was even sacred about crazy weather just change different lot even sacred tornado warning
I pray for u guys. Keep trying.
I am so glad you guys are safe I love your tornado warning video I was so happy that you protected your dog he is so precious 😮💨😃👌🏻🌪️🚨📺💻📱📻😁🐶🗣️💬 ( so precious )
Ive had 5 miscarriages. Finally starting ivf
😥
That girl is emotional and upset
