Pregnant after tens of thousands of dollars (IVF), three surgical procedures, and 2 years of work. Just passed the first trimester.

A husband here.

It’s been a long ride. Without going into too many details she had to have to two surgeries and me one. The emotional rollercoaster and the amount of money involved is rather insane.

In all honesty, I always wanted to be child free. However, when meeting my wife, I realized if I was ever going to, she would be a pretty damn good person to do it with. So the journey began.

IVF worked. She is now 18 weeks pregnant and it’s starting to show. It’s hard to believe, but I’m going to be a father. I will love that little bugger till the end and do my best to be better than my parents were/are. The 20 week full baby scan appointment is coming very soon!

Random post I know, but I just wanted to share. I don’t really have too many close friends nowadays, so Reddit will have to do.

I wish all the luck in the world to anyone trying. I know how exhausting and taxing it can be to make it work.

I’m still having trouble wrapping my head around the fact.

Crazy!
