Kellie shares her long road through Amenorrhea, IVF treatments, ending with a happy and healthy baby boy

"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"
Her Story
I was diagnosed with Amenorrhea (essentially lack of a period and ovulation) at 28 after going off the pill and having zero cycle. I tried every eastern route, from acupuncture to diet changes, shifts in type of exercise (goodbye Orange Theory) and all of the Chinese herbs. Nothing worked. After a year of no period and no luck conceiving, my husband and I went to see a Reproductive Endocrinologist. We went through four cycles of infertility treatments which consisted of weeks of nightly injections along with vaginal ultrasounds and blood work every 2-3 days until my follicles were at the perfect size to “trigger” ovulation. We were lucky to conceive my now 22 month old son, Maverick, with injections and timed intercourse and I have never felt so grateful as I did the moment my doctor called to tell me I was pregnant. I obviously took about 15 home tests before my bloodwork but those confirming words were everything.
Two years later we are again on the long and bumpy infertility road. I had an emergency c-section with my son which resulted in retained placenta and a D&C. The D&C, we found out in June after three failed IUI cycles and IVF, caused significant scar tissue to grow. I had surgery to remove that scar tissue and luckily had a successful IVF cycle that has given us 7 perfect embryos. The road the second time around has been much harder and longer than we expected (another year of self administered needles, ultrasounds and bloodwork) but we are so close to our frozen embryo transfer that will hopefully result in a healthy second pregnancy.
Infertility is the most taxing process I’ve every been through. There is the financial cost (read thousands), we are lucky to be able to afford it, the emotional toll, the hiding your reality from people, the insensitive questions about when are you going to have kids or your next kid, and the strain on your relationship when you feel awful and pumped with hormones and want nothing less than for your husband to touch you. I struggle with what infertility, pregnancy and a c-section have done to my once toned body.
I didn’t have the delivery I wanted or the road to pregnancy I had assumed, but what I do have is my baby and hopefully a second baby soon, and for that I would do it all over a thousand times again. I look at my happy, running, silly almost 2 year old and know I will be more present, loving and accepting of him because of what I went through to bring him here. That being said, it’s hard as fuck.
Apologies for the length but my story is for lack of a better term, a long story.

"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."

"My therapist told me that getting an infertility diagnosis affects your brain the same way as getting a cancer diagnosis. It’s just heartbreak, I guess."

I am WILMOTT CURTIS from Bakersfield, CA,United States. ghostchampionrecovery@cyberservices.com ,I need to share this here so you won’t lose your money cheaply to scam brokers. I invested about $290,278 on a binary option platform, then I decided to withdraw after several weeks. The withdrawal wasn’t successful, so I tried to contact the platform via email and phone number. I didn’t get a response from them when everything started looking weird. Some weeks later I got a letter from them insisting I should invest more money if I want to withdraw my money which I rejected and I never heard from them again. That was when I knew I had been scammed. I was really devastated at that moment and felt so bad that my hard earned money was gone. After some months I came across a lot of testimonies on the web how Ghost Champion Cyber Hack Service Telegram : https://t.me/WizardGhosthacker had helped many people recover their stolen scammed funds or duped money on bitcoin or any other form of digital currency.

CRYPTOCURRENCY TRACING AND RECOVERY SERVICES CONTACT DIGITAL HACK RECOVERY COMPANY
Hello, I’m Nancy Lyle from Chicago, and I want to share my experience with a recent scam and how I managed to reclaim my lost funds. My story is a testament to the importance of vigilance in the digital age and the incredible help provided by Digital Hack Recovery. It all started with an investment opportunity that seemed too good to be true. I was approached by a broker trade site promising high returns on Bitcoin investments. The offer was enticing, and after some consideration, I decided to invest a substantial amount of money. Initially, everything seemed to be running smoothly, and my investments appeared to be generating profits. However, things quickly took a turn for the worse. The first red flag came when I was asked to pay additional fees to withdraw my profits. I thought it was a standard procedure, so I paid the requested amount. But then, the fees kept escalating. Each time I tried to withdraw my earnings, I was asked to pay even more. The demands became increasingly frequent, and the fees were absurdly high. Despite my growing concerns, I continued to comply, hoping that the situation would resolve itself. Unfortunately, the more I paid, the more I realized that I was being scammed. The broker kept coming up with new excuses to delay my withdrawals and demand more money. Eventually, it became clear that this was a sophisticated fraud, designed to extort as much money as possible from unsuspecting victims. By the time I realized the extent of the scam, I had lost €1391.04—an amount that I had worked hard to save and invest. Feeling defeated and desperate, I reached out to a friend for help. I explained everything that had happened, including the deceptive tactics used by the broker and my growing frustration over the lost funds. My friend was incredibly supportive and recommended that I seek professional assistance. He introduced me to Digital Hack Recovery, a firm specializing in recovering lost funds from fraudulent schemes. Skeptical yet hopeful, I decided to take the plunge and work with them. From the very beginning, the team at Digital Hack Recovery demonstrated professionalism and expertise. They listened to my situation, analyzed the details of the scam, and outlined a clear strategy for recovering my lost funds. Their approach was methodical and thorough, giving me confidence that they could help me reclaim my money. To my amazement, within just 72 hours of engaging with Digital Hack Recovery, I received the full amount of €1,391.04 that had been fraudulently taken from me. The speed and efficiency of their service were remarkable. It felt like a miracle to have my funds returned so quickly, and I was overjoyed and relieved. The experience taught me several valuable lessons. First and foremost, it highlighted the importance of being cautious when dealing with online investments. Scammers can be incredibly convincing and sophisticated, making it easy to fall victim to their schemes. Secondly, it underscored the value of seeking professional help when dealing with financial fraud. Digital Hack Recovery’s expertise and dedication made a significant difference in my situation.I want to express my deepest gratitude to Digital Hack Recovery for their support and for giving me back my financial stability. Their work has not only recovered my lost funds but also restored my trust in the possibility of justice in the face of fraud.
