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!

"I never knew how difficult it was until I came across my own journey of 1 1/2 years of trying, countless nights of crying and pain, day after day of medication & injections."

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.

"Infertility is the most taxing process I’ve every been through. There is the financial cost, the physical and emotional toll, the hiding your reality from people, the insensitive questions you're asked"

I made the decision to handle things myself since I was determined and a little naive. I studied innumerable tutorials on the complexities of blockchain, encryption algorithms, and digital forensics. However, when I put in endless effort to crack the code, it became evident that my rudimentary knowledge was unable to tackle the intricate realm of Bitcoin recovery. I had been misguided by my tenacity. I turned to recovery programs that claimed simple and quick fixes while I was in a desperate situation. I gave my hard-earned money to slick-talking professionals who said they knew everything. I had no idea that I was about to fall into a trap. I became even more discouraged and broke as a result of these scammers taking advantage of my weakness. Although it was a difficult lesson, it increased my prudence and discernment. When all else seemed gone, a glimmer of hope emerged from the dark depths of the internet. Internet reviews and recommendations from other Bitcoin enthusiasts led me to discover the team “WIZARD JAMES RECOVERY.” I had to give it one last go because they were famous. WIZARD JAMES RECOVERY presented a team of professionals with an exceptional record of recovering lost or stolen cryptocurrency. With expertise in everything from blockchain analysis to tracking down digital traces, they were a formidable force in the bitcoin recovery field. With renewed hope, I reached out to them in the hopes that they would improve my situation. When I contacted WIZARD JAMES RECOVERY, they responded quickly and competently. They told me that they had handled cases like mine in the past and acknowledged the gravity of my predicament. Finding someone who genuinely understood my situation and didn’t view my loss as a statistic was a relief. One document at a time, it seemed to me like they were assembling the puzzle.I was kept updated at every stage of the recovery process by the WIZARD JAMES RECOVERY Experts. They used their extensive knowledge and expertise to create a plan that was customised for my particular situation. In contrast to my prior experiences with bogus recovery services, it was a team effort, and I felt like I had a voice in the process. In the end, WIZARD JAMES RECOVERY expertise and dedication allowed me to recover my stolen bitcoin. I couldn’t help but feel grateful that I had found this amazing team because it was a successful moment. They turned my story of suffering into a story of salvation, demonstrating to me that even in the most desperate situations, magicians can accomplish incredible things with a wave of their digital wands.
