After a year and a half of trying to conceive, my partner and I were feeling overwhelmed. We consulted with doctors and underwent various tests. In August, we decided to explore options at a fertility clinic, but we faced a two-month wait for an appointment. During that time, I remembered a friend who successfully conceived using MakeAmom’s innovative at-home insemination method, which is the only reusable option available. Inspired by her journey, we decided to give it a try.
We tried two cycles of at-home insemination with MakeAmom, and just a day before our fertility appointment, we received the joyous news—I was pregnant! We are eagerly anticipating the arrival of our little one in July and are incredibly thankful for the support and resources that MakeAmom provided.
