A bundle of joy is, how they call babies. But, when you decide to get pregnant, you think everything is gonna be fast. You never think you’re gonna take one year to get pregnant so then we start and then. Okay, the first month didn’t work so, the second month is gonna work but for me it wasn’t like this.
So, many many months and many tries, it was very hard because looks like everybody’s getting pregnant so easily around you and your news feed is full of babies. So we start to hating it like, why is everybody getting pregnant and I’m not so that’s where it’s the beginning of my story. Then after one year trying, a little bit less than one year I think, I went to my doctor and said okay, so it’s not working what’s happening but everything is so they don’t give you an answer and that’s what hurts more because you don’t know what’s happening so, my doctor did some exams and everything was fine.
I had a cyst but it wasn’t a reason for not getting pregnant. So then she referred me to fertility doctor so there I did a lot of exams and my husband too and everything was fine. So then we started the hormones so, I was poking my belly and growing eggs for the IVF. I also did two IUIs.
So yeah! a lot of hormones and stress and anxiety it was tough, you feel defeated and you feel like you never gonna have the feeling of person growing inside you. So when I went to ROAR, I was already feeling defeated. I was going to therapy for depression, Couples Therapy. My marriage was suffering with this still because I was so sad and my husband has been great and patient but, it is very difficult to see other women and then not compare because we everybody compares and I was, Oh my god! it looks like everybody’s pregnant around you. I did yoga for fertility too and try to because everybody says, no just relax and then it’s gonna happen but it’s not like this actually so, it’s not just relaxing you have to all your body has to be ready.
So then with ROAR was great because it was another approach so, I wasn’t poking myself so, I was talking about the nutrition and eating better so it sleeping better – the herbs helped me to feel less stressed less depressed maybe and so and then I did another IUI after. But, after getting all the herbs so, I’m I feel like it helped a lot and my husband was taking the herbs too so we were doing something together it doesn’t feel so alone because when you are doing fertility treatments it’s just the woman who is getting everything but doing with ROAR was great to have my husband doing something having the herbs too.
I started with the ROAR in May and then the end of me then I got pregnant on September so it was great. So when you actually see, ROAR gave me hope and like talking about infertility in another way was great because without drugs. It was nice to see another way to see things, it’s been here for a long time. Yeah, so I did when I found out I was pregnant yeah. It was I did the transfer of the Embryo transfer and then you know I’ve been doing so many tests, so many so many times that I said okay, I’m not gonna do this anymore. So I just waited to the clinic to call me and then they said, yes it worked.
So I went to my husband’s work. And it was amazing. Now I’m a mother and everything went great. She she’s doing very well. I think she’s a nice baby. She she’s not too cranky yet. She’s two weeks and a half old and we are in heaven. We are having fun. Everything she does is great going to ROAR definitely made a difference in my mindset. I was feeling much more relaxed. It making things easier. My baby’s here. Okay, This is Isabelle. She’s my ROAR baby and she’s two and a half weeks old.
