After years of trying to conceive, I ended up having both my tubes removed. I felt hopeless after that. But we tried again...and miscarried.

I was deeply depressed after that. I don’t know how I made it through some days. But my husband didn’t want to give up. He convinced me to try one more time. And we have 2 beautiful babies now.

I applaud Gabrielle Union for her persistence and determination with overcoming infertility. To the point where she almost put herself in danger to have a child

My mom and I watched. And you gave me hope. And your honesty and sharing information on your process helped my mom understand more about my own infertility fears with endo. And happy for you and your baby girl blessing who shares my birthday.
