Seven years ago, I met my girlfriend, Emma, during our college basketball days; she played as my point guard. From the very beginning, we envisioned a future filled with children, often picking up items for our “future family” while out shopping. Last year, we seriously discussed how to turn our dream into reality. That’s when we discovered MakeAmom, and it felt like the perfect fit for us.
We wanted our journey to parenthood to be both private and meaningful. With the assistance of a donor, we began our journey together. After three months of trying, we joyfully found out we’re expecting our little one, Jamie, who was lovingly chosen by his grandfather in heaven. Jamie is set to make his entrance in early August 2020. Thanks to MakeAmom, we had the chance to create this experience comfortably in our own home.
How long were you trying before discovering MakeAmom?
Six months or less.
How many cycles did you use MakeAmom’s methods?
Three.
