So, let me share this incredible story with you! After trying for over a year to get pregnant, we finally had a positive test, but unfortunately, that ended in a miscarriage at 10 weeks. Once we got the green light from our doctor, we were ready to try again. After two cycles without success, we decided to mix things up with home insemination.
Our first month with the kit didn’t result in pregnancy, but during our next fertile window, we alternated between using the kit and having intercourse every other day. And guess what? It worked! We’re now 19 weeks along and cannot wait to meet our little one. We’re keeping the sex a surprise, as we think that’s one of the best surprises life has to offer. Since we’re both over 35, we anticipate this may be our only baby, so we’re soaking in every moment. We’re incredibly thankful to have achieved this without spending a fortune on procedures that may not guarantee success.
