I'm a young filmmaker, and I recently decided to write/direct a shirt film on infertility. Upon researching the condition, I came across this video. I wanted to thank you for sharing your story. You are a strong, beautiful, independent soul for sharing this with the world. You gave me a broader understand of what inferitility is and also allowed me to see how common it is. It's a shame there aren't more people sharing their stories and experiences, because stories like these not help, but matter so much more than we care to admit. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Prayers and love to you on this journey. I went through similar trying for a baby for a few years. I was diagnosed with mild endometriosis. I tried seeing an OB/GYN initially too. I am glad you are seeing a reproductive endocrinologist. They helped us and have the expertise you need. Don’t give up!!!! I was devastated, but always remained hopeful. That was over 20 years ago. It will happen for you. My two babies are adults now and IUI was our answer. One happened pretty quick , but the other took 5-6 attempts. There weren’t videos like yours, when I was going through this. I felt very alone. You are doing a great service to other women, while you are navigating your situation. I know your heart hurts, but one day that will be replaced by joy. BELIEVE! ❤️🙏🏼

Hey there! You're such a strong woman. You didn't lose hope all this time. This is the reason you were able to cope up with the terrible situation life gave you. I'm glad you were able to beat infertiliy. I wish every couple suffering from infertility can have this strenth to win over it. Thank you for sharing this video with us.

Hi there! I hope you're doing good. You are such a strong woman. Thank you for sharing your inspirational story with us. Infertility is no small thing to get through. I applaud you for your bravery and strength. WIshing you all the best in the future!

Eric and Chelsea you just did the best. It’s really hard to narrate your story to someone else. This requires a lot of courage and stamina. Your story will act as a precautionary measure for others. Others will able to seek help before consulting it to doctor. You have resolved many unsolved issues. Thank you so much. Stay happy!!!

I can relate. My husband and got married back in 2009 and prevented to have a baby for a few years then when we decided to have one then i found out that it’s not as easy as i thought it would be. Now I am so insecure to talk about it.. I started vlogging to divert my attention and not think too much about pregnancy, but still end up watching these kind of videos. I am hoping that someday I’ll find courage to make a video about it and connect to those who are struggling as well.

I praise your patience and commitment. You have really faced the ordeals with so grace. Infertility is a disaster. It ruins the family. It breaks the relations.You are lucky that you came out of all challenges so well. The moments you are enjoying now are due to your perseverance. I have loads of prayers for you.

Thanks for sharing your videos here. I've already seen previous ones. So, yeah! I'm already following your VLOG here. I really appreciate you. I'm also a women suffering from primrary infertility. So, yeah! Wish me all the best! I'm also having an IVF this year from a repro center in Ukraine.

Hello, Chelsea. I hope you're okay. This is actually a powerful video. I refuse to see the negative side. I love the way you're staying hopeful. That is the way to go. Keep the faith. You can do this!

I am so sorry for your loss. I had also faced the same situation. I can really imagine what you are going through. the good thing is you did not give up. the days were pass out now. don't think of them. don't get stress and try to stay relax. it will be a very good time period for you. a lot of baby dust for you.

oh, Lil darlin,,,,my heart and prayers are there with you! just know there are people out here who care!

These battles actually seem to be a never-ending one. For people like you and me. We just kept on trying. Facing the negatives and the loss. What not. We just go through every damn thing. To be the one among who have their families and babies. How could anyone just imagine living with infertility and loneliness all life long? So this has to stop anyhow. This is what your strength comes from.

Thank you so much for your recommendations. We are at the beginning of our TTC journey. I never thought I had irregular periods or that I'd have a hard time knowing my ovulation schedule but I've been tracking for the past few months and it's definitely irregular. I hadn't heard of Pregnitude but after hearing your review, and doing some research, I've ordered the Pregnitude and Ubiquinol. Thank you for sharing your journey with us! xo

Hey there Eric and Chelsea! Unexplained infertility is the worst thing ever. I m so sorry for your troubles. Don't worry hon! We are all with you. There are many people facing issues like you. I hope everything goes well for you. Please keep us updated. Good luck for your future and Much Love!

Those who don't give up always win. This is all because you did not lose hope and keep trying. That's why you are here. I am feeling very happy that people are considering infertility treatment now. I myself had a baby through infertility treatment. Let's just hope these things keep going.

Hello! Hope you're doing well, Chelsea. Infertility is a horrible, horrible problem. I hope to God you guys can get some good news, ASAP. This video is greatly helpful. You're really brave for sharing your story. Thank you.

Hey. Thanks for sharing this with us. I'm sorry to hear about your situation. I tried to conceive a baby for three years. I had lost hope after that. I have a son now who I had through surrogacy. My life has transformed now. I really hope it works out for you. Good luck.

So sorry you're going through this! I got pregnant with an IUI, don't give up hope!! it will happen

Hello there! I hope you are doing fine. This is such an inspirational video. What a brave woman you are. Thank you for sharing this video. Im sure this will give hope to alot of people. Best of luck. Take care. Cheers!

Hey there. I hope you are doing great. I am really sorry to hear about it. I hope you get what you want. Just be positive and strong. I wish you good luck. Take care.

Hey, I am so sorry. Being infertile sucks. It really bugs me a lot. My life has been so hard because of it. Your video gave me some hope. Keep posting such posts.

I wish you all the best with your life and I feel for you. I hope all your problems get solved.

Thank you so much for sharing and good luck on your journey

Hello, Chelsea. I hope you're doing good. My only advice to you would be to not lose hope. It's a testing journey and one full of struggles. But I have no doubts that you'll overcome it. Good luck to you. I hope things work out for you.

Hey there. How are you? I hope things are going great for you. Infertility is such a huge issue. This was such an amazing and informative video. Just stay strong. Things will turn around for the best. Sending you love and best wishes.

Hi, Chelsea. I know this video is a couple of years old, but I just came across your channel. My husband and I were recently diagnosed with Unexplained Infertility. I know you are currently pregnant (congrats!) but I’m looking forward to going back through your old videos and watching your journey.

Thank you for sharing! Been looking for others who are in this fertility battle. I myself am about to have my hsg next month, any insight on what I shoyld expect or suggestion on how to prepare?

I had just about the same response in our video about the HSG test! Meh. Thank you for sharing your story

Hi there. I am so happy for you guys. IVF is really a great way of going through with this. It is so great. You are so brave. You did not gave up. I am so happy for you. I hope your kids bring you lots of joy and lots of good memories. Take care.

Firstly...my heart goes out to you. There's so much tragedy and sorrow around. Avoiding it altogether is almost impossible. And it isn't distributed equally and "fairly", which in itself is a part of the tragedy. We struggled with infertility for eight years, with countless tests, procedures, and doctors. At a time when we’d just about given up, the Infertility Center Biotex gave us more than hope. They gave us a family. We knew we were working with the right team from the beginning. Our doctor immediately dismissed the suggestion of egg donation in our case by saying, “We’re not there yet”. We sign contract and paid only 30k euros. This is even less that we expected. Infertility affects 7.3 million people in the U.S. and 1 in every 8 couples have difficulty conceiving, so it is definitely not as easy as it seems. Luckily there are reproductive centers not only in US. Countries like Ukraine conduct special programs with lower prices. So there is a solution of escaping rude and stupid comments about infertility.

I am so sorry to hear about your infertility. I hope that you feel okay and everything you want comes to you. For all the good things come to those who wait. I believe there are other alternatives too for childbearing. You should look them up.

Chelsea!!! And now you have beautiful Rey!❤❤❤

Hi there!!!!!I am pregnant with my second child.this time I am conceiving from IVF.In my case, I was poor sperm quality.It is really painful after retrieval of egg.and in 5 attempts I was pregnant.At starting, we face so many difficulties and hurdles but now I was really positive and happy.Hope in future you also get it.Best wishes.Keep calm and never lose hope.

A friend of mine struggled with infertility for years. Unfortunately, she had 3 miscarriages. Then she had her daughter in her early fifties thanks to IVF Mexico

It will happen for you. I am sure it will. Don't lose hope. I am fighting infertility. I wanna have a baby. I can't. I am looking for my solution. You keep looking for yours.

Hello there.I am trying to conceive after 4 years.In these years, I am suffering a lot.I am taking all medications and treatment but no luck is there.Life is so hard and difficult to spend without the baby.Everybody wants to complete their family with having kids.Nothing is impossible.With positive thoughts and trying you have to do all impossible things possible.

Hi Chelsea! I have been looking up videos for months now and came across yours this morning. I was shocked by how similar your story sounded to mine and then noticed you are from the same part of Utah as me and using the same Fertility Clinic. The chances that we had the same OB clinic that treated us the same way is pretty high... I am currently on my second round of clomid. I would love to see if we have the same doctor and see if you have suggestions of someone I should switch to

I’ve learned as a women, If you want kids it’s best you start trying as soon as possible or at least test your fertility before you wait to long

Here's my infertility story. Now at the age of 43 i am married again to someone else and we want a baby off our own. I founded many clinics regarding surrogacy and i picked up the few clinics too for further discussion with them. I contacted many clinics and told them every aspect of our complications. From my last marriage i had many complications regarding pregnancy. Like i was facing miscarriages every time i conceived. I know at this age it is quite difficult to have a baby off my own womb. Keeping in mind all the complications regarding pregnancy now i think i should go for some other option to have children. So i persuaded my husband to go for surrogacy to have our own children.

Hey, This is really amazing video. It's sometimes not easy to get pregnant for a woman like us. most of the woman uses birth control pills. They enjoy few years with their DH and in the end, they face infertility. I am in the same boat like all infertile woman. I always wanted to have babies, I never used birth control pills. But it was fate that I am not able to be a mother ever. It was really heartbreaking but it is what I have to face. I was never in favour of surrogacy I use to call it unethical. But when I realized this is it I want a baby by any means so I met few people who have babies through surrogacy. I realized this is not unethical because surrogates do so for sake of our happiness. I am happy that I really thought about surrogacy and now I am blessed with a baby. I am a happy mother now.

Hi dear! hope you are fine. My very close neighbor who is my very good friend too had MC. She was told that she could never give birth to a child again but then she tried surrogacy. A clinic in Ukraine helped her understand and performed the procedure. She is now happy and well.

In tears.. I have same story .. god bless us with a baby

This is worse thing knowing I won’t ever have kids 😔

Hey, there I hope your journey gets easy. It really is frustrating when you're unable to find the problem. I did take Clomid despite the fact that even I wasn't a big fan of it.In the hope that it might work out for me. Anyways, it didn't work out for me. I then visited a specialist who told me that I was suffering from poor ovarian reserves. This was heartbreaking but at least I got to know the problem. IVF wasn't going to work for me I knew as due to the complications. Therefore, I went abroad for surrogacy due to the heavy cost in the US.

I'd love to fallow your journey! Do you have a fb page or another KZfaq channel where you post updates? I too have endometriosis, I tried for 2 years for my first child.. what did the trick for me I think was a 20 day waterfall, I got pregnant the fallowing month. With my 2nd I got pregnant on accident immediately after my first child was born. I guess being pregnant keeps your endometriosis from getting worse so I was still in good fertile shape. Now my youngest is 2.5 and I've been ttc for a year and a half! I'm going to try a water fast again once I get the willpower... lol I love food. Good luck to you honey! You will have your baby ... when you least expect it!

Hey do you have updates? Are you making another video soon?

This sucks it creates so much anxiety for someone like me who will be 35 though i am not trying yet.

just wondering, were you the only one who had testing done or did your hubby get tested as well? my hubby and I were in the same boat and I got tested first but everything came back normal, so we finally decided to test him and it turned out to be male factor infertility. We also had to go through IUI and 6th time was a charm, so keep going and don't give up because you guys will get there ☺🙄

Hey Dear! I Become so sad to know about the situation you are dealing with. Really, it's tough. But never lose. Try some alternate methods like surrogacy or IVF. I hope it could be fruitful for you. Just keep trying it is so much better than quitting.

Hi dear thank you . I have one question. We going to start ivf treatments this months,everything is ok all test said me but count my husband lower than normal so we decided ivf process,my question is after you did this treatment do you anything happen side effect? because I have little woried thank you.

I have pcos and endometriosis my partner and I have been trying to get pregnant for some time now but I have a hard time getting pregnant is there any options for us to look into please help 😞

I really hope it happens for you ♥️

so do u have pcos or not?I am in the same boat, almost 35 and no live babies, only in heaven

My ovulation strips showed I was ovulating each month. But my fertility specialist says that due to my very low ovarian reserve it is highly unlikely that I am. The fertility strips measures hormones, so you can have a hormonal surge without the release of an egg.

so how is it going? ?

It could be endometriosis

Omggggg me!!! ALLLLLL my friends have kids now and atp I’m scared

try fertility aid or fertility blend

Hi Chelsia! I'm sorry you are going through this!! Thank you for sharing this. I'm still fighting to realize my dream to become a mom. I'll meet with my doctor in two weeks. After many researches, I discovered that clinics in Mexico are creating miracles. I found my clinic through www.ivfinmexico.com. I'm hopeful that 2019 will be the biggest year for me!

Chelsea, I am sorry you're going through this, but, I know you and your husband will be very loving parents to a super healthy happy and whole baby. I posted my fertility story on here too- I was 43 when I got pregnant - every doc said it would never happen. I finally found the right doctors and practitioners to support me on my journey and now I have a delicious 2.5 year old baby girl with my own egg (docs said I could only get pregnant using a donor egg- they were wrong!) here is my video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kNplipeUq9GwmZc.html I have a dear friend who had a tilted uterus - she had a quick procedure and they did IVF and she has a wonderful and vibrantly healthy 6 year old son. let me know if you need any support - I am a certified holistic health coach specializing in fertility. sending hugs! -Donna
