A few months ago, we decided to give at-home insemination a try, but I’ll be honest—I was pretty skeptical. My doctors were supportive, but I could sense a hint of doubt in their voices when they mentioned that success was possible. This left me feeling disheartened. After a disappointing IUI attempt and a lot of complications that followed, I thought our dreams of starting a family were on hold.
I had been dealing with various health issues like bladder problems and vaginismus, which led me to explore at-home options. Thankfully, after resolving the trouble caused by the IUI, my mother encouraged me to give it another shot with the at-home kit. Despite my lack of optimism, I ordered another kit knowing it was the most comfortable way for me to try, given my situation. Honestly, the design was impressive!
To my astonishment, after using the kit last month, we discovered just a few days ago that we are pregnant! I’m still in disbelief. I can’t wait to share this wonderful news with my doctors and tell them it actually worked!
