My husband, Shawn, and I had planned to start a family as soon as we got married. We had no idea the topsy-turvy ups and downs we would have to endure to do so!
We spent our first year of marriage doing everything we could to try to conceive. We would be so encouraged at the beginning of each month thinking, “This will be the month we get pregnant”, only to be disappointed two weeks later. After a year of trying on our own, we contacted a fertility specialist.
