Alex shares her journey going through PCOS, preparing to start IVF, and their miracle baby

Her Story
Below is our story about infertility and attached is a photo of when I revealed to my husband we were pregnant
This photo means SO much, my sister took it for us! I told my husband Eric we were testing out a new camera for my sister and had to do a mock engagement shoot.. Eric’s first question when I revealed I was pregnant was.. “How!?” Someone please explain how babies are made to my husband.. JK!! The reason why he asked was it’s only by the grace of god we got pregnant during this time.
Before this it had been so hard to see all the pregnancy announcements being posted (although we were thrilled, it made us question our own journey). We had been only trying for a few months starting early 2018 but I was not getting my period regularly and so it was really hard to track ovulation. We did some tests with my OB and we found out that I had PCOS and we would need to see a fertility specialist or I would most likely not get pregnant on my own. It was a shock to say the least, I was terrified because I did not know anyone that had talked about this before. When your high test results shock your doctors who have been practicing medicine for decades, you start to panic a little. For reference AMH levels are typically <3 and <13 is about the highest of the normal level and mine were at 52.
Luckily, we had prepared financially before we even knew it would be an issue and were willing to do whatever it takes along with having a team of people praying for us and providing support/answers.. after starting treatments that Sept we went through 6 months of treatments, 2 hospitalizations due to reactions to medication, I lost my left ovary due to torsion, only a few shots (luckily!) and we ended up getting pregnant right before starting IVF!! My second hospital visit was March 3-5, 2019 and I ovulated, unknown at the time, at the end of that month getting pregnant! Not to mention we only had intercourse once during that time because I was still in a lot of pain. What a miracle.. I was shocked, my doctor was shocked and obviously so was my husband.
There were a few little complications along the pregnancy but now we have the most perfect little girl and a second one on the way due in January 2022, which is a separate crazy story! I still compare our journey to others that it seems to come so easy.. BUT it’s impossible to know what’s going on behind closed doors. Honestly, I know some women’s journeys are WAY harder and I’m so grateful that we got pregnant when we did. It was hard to be constantly asked “when are you going to have kids?”, it is an innocent question but people don’t realize how painful it can be when you're struggling and want something so bad! I don’t share sympathy, but because I felt like I was alone when getting bad news and I know so many others are struggling. I only pray I can give some hope!
Hearing the heartbeat and remembering seeing the healthy babe at each ultrasound still makes me cry. Just so grateful!

They said there was zero sperm. Even though my boyfriend wasn't fully awake, I saw wet eyes tears rolling on his face. It was the first time I saw him crying. It was also the first time I really saw that he wanted this for us.

Realizing I was a victim of a scam was a devastating blow. My initial investment of $89,000, driven by dreams of financial success and the buzz surrounding a new cryptocurrency project, turned into a nightmare. The project promised high returns and rapid gains, attracting many eager investors like myself. However, as time passed and inconsistencies began to surface, it became evident that I had made a grave mistake by not thoroughly vetting the brokerage company handling the investment. Feeling anxious and betrayed, I desperately searched for a way to recover my funds. During this frantic search, I stumbled upon the Brigadia Tech Recovery tool through a Facebook post. With little left to lose, I reached out to their team for help. To my relief, they were quick to respond and immediately started recovering my compromised email and regaining access to my cryptocurrency wallets. The team at Brigadia Tech Recovery was incredibly professional and transparent throughout the process. They meticulously traced the digital footprints left by the scammers, employing advanced technological methods to unravel the complex network that had ensnared my funds. Their expertise in cybersecurity and recovery strategies gradually began to turn the tide in my favor. Although the scammers had already siphoned off $30,000 worth of Bitcoin, Brigadia Tech Recovery was relentless in their pursuit. They managed to expose the fraudulent activities of the scam operators, revealing their identities and the mechanisms they used to lure investors. This exposure was crucial not only for my case but also as a warning to the wider community about the perils of unverified investment schemes. As we progressed, it became a race against time to retrieve the remaining $59,000 before the scammers could vanish completely. Each step forward was met with new challenges, as these criminals constantly shifted tactics and moved their digital assets to evade capture. Nonetheless, the determination and skill of the recovery team kept us hopeful. Throughout this ordeal, I learned the hard value of caution and due diligence in investment, especially within the volatile world of cryptocurrency. The experience has been incredibly taxing, both emotionally and financially, but the support and results provided by Brigadia Tech Recovery have been indispensable. Currently, the recovery process is ongoing and I have already received 50% of my money, and while the outcome remains uncertain, the progress made so far gives me hope. The battle to recover the full amount of my investment continues, and with the expertise of Brigadia Tech Recovery, I remain optimistic about the eventual recovery of my funds. Their commitment to their clients and proficiency in handling such complex cases truly sets them apart in the field of cyber recovery.I share this testimony because i am sure someone out there is going through the same issue and devastated mentally by all these fake brokers all around the world,This is the main contact information incase you are interested to recover your lost investments

Thank you so much The Exner Hacker for granting me access to my cryptocurrency wallet. If you are experiencing a similar issue or crypto scam, don’t hesitate to ask for their help. When Mr Ferdinand, my mentor, mentioned THE EXNER HACKER to me, I got paranoid, and quite scarred, as usual. You can’t blame me because, after a long search for reliable hackers without success, you are bound to cave in and just believe there exists no good hacker. I had lost access to my BTC after forgetting my seed. I contacted them at email: TheexnerhackerATprotonmailDOTcom as well as their Telegram: (PLUS)1 (917) 384‑3379. In a matter of 5 minutes, they got back to me and the retrieval process immediately commenced. In a matter of 3 hours, he had cracked the wallet and I had attained full access to my wallet. Of course, I needed to give them my goodwill token out of gratitude. Thank you sir/madam for what you are continually offering to the world. email: TheexnerhackerATprotonmailDOTcom
