Ever wonder what it’s like to go through IVF? See the entire journey through Deirdre’s eyes, as this single mother by choice navigates every step in the fertility …
I’m going to be 29 on the new year and currently in nursing school. I am expected to graduate fall of next year 2020, which then I’ll be going on 30. I am single and I’m my religious views i cannot have sex until I am married. In this day I’m age it’s kind of difficult to date and find qualified men or at lease in my perspective. I have a 6 year old who I dearly love and he wants a sibling so bad, so i decided if I am not married by 34 I am going to do this because more kids is something I wanted when I graduated school.
I'm 33 right now and might do an insemination next year. I want babies, but don't want a man since I'm not much of a relationship type of person. I don't think I have any fertility issues but that remains to be seen.
I’m contemplating this now. I’m 27 and am thinking about using a sperm donor if I’m not in a committed stable healthy relationship/marriage by 30-32. This is very inspiring. You are also very lucky to have your mom could go through this process with you.
I hate the fact they didn’t use her eggs when she clearly had some eggs left over. This woman is such a smart sophisticated woman. The doctor just got her to not pass off her bloodline.
I have a plan for this being a possibility in the future. I have PCOS so for a while my future fertility has been a concern for me even when I was diagnosed as a teenager. I'm 19, turning 20 soon, but I worry that if I wait too long waiting for a boyfriend/husband and my ovaries won't have enough eggs.
I've decided to see by my mid to late 20s to see what my romantic situation looks like (seeing if who I'm with then would want children) and if it's not a possibility that way I'm going to have IVF with donor sperm. Because I doubt I'm one of those women who can get to their late 30s and 40s and still have children. I know it's a 'you never know' situation but I don't want to take that chance. I'd love to have my own children
I don’t understand why she used a donor egg. She should have at least tried with her own. My numbers were bad but I got pregnant on my own at 43. It’s worth trying with your own eggs.
I love your Mom!!! I'm about to be a single mom but not by choice. Your story gives me a fresh new perspective and honestly is a breath of fresh air in this cruel cruel world. Love to you and your bundle of joy!
I feel like I was just watching my story! I am going through this myself now. My 7 week ultrasound in this coming Monday and I can hardly wait. My family is so supportive as well and my mother and I have this same bond.
I know that some clinics set an age limit for women who want to undergo IVF. But still, there are plenty of IVF options for older women. Like, for example, the Ukrainian clinic Biotexcom. They conducted all kind of treatments for women even over 50. They have the highest rate of success and quite affordable prices. Do you remember the case when a woman over 60 has conceived and delivered kids? Of course, I think that it is a very individual thing. But it is true that there are a lot of women who fail to conceive. And that does not mean that you won’t have a chance of getting pregnant. To be quite honest there should be examinations for those who want to get pregnant but in the future. So they can see what their chances are. But honestly, it is common sense to not wait till 40 years to begin your tries to conceive.
I'm planning for this. Im 29 now….hoping after 3-5 years of building my savings and moving into a better career I'll be fully prepared financially take this journey.
I love this story. I'm also a single mother by choice, I'm 41 and have a 6 week old baby after 7 rounds of fertility treatment over 5 years. Its a dream come true to have this child and cudnt be happier. I think its great that we can now do this and not miss out just because we didn't meet the right person x
This is truly inspiring! I'm 22 years old and I can relate so much to this. I've always wanted to become a mother for the longest time. I went under a ovarian cyst surgery last year, and honestly I am praying to god I atleast have enough eggs to produce a child someday. I am planning to be a single mother by choice, I have always considered that, so this has truly brough inspiration to me. I felt so connected with this story and can't wait to start my journey someday! Hopefully very soon!

Amazing 😪💕
this woman talks A LOT lol
Thank you, for this awesome video of your story, I am planning ivf treatment towards the end of this year.
I'm 31 with no kid in my life I think I must also try this
absolutely beautiful and inspiring
Most definitely doing this when I turn 28 hopefully I can have babies ❤️
Turning 37 next week and wondering (hoping) I can still just use a sperm donor. IVF is so much more expensive :/
Wow ❤️ my pregnancy was unplanned but I love my baby boy I’m 37 weeks, life is miracle
Identical twins don’t run in families! Fraternal ones do though 🙂. Congratulations to you on your baby 😉
No comment, I am just watching the reality and truth of what is happening in this world we live in.
I don't get it; if she's such die-hard fan of the physiological part of babymaking – pregnancy and birth – why not breastfeed as well?

I was conceived through IVF, and I feel very lucky for that!

maybe I will choose this way too。
Thank you for sharing your experience! Am 37 am going through Ivf on September very scary to find out about if I could use my on eggs!

I'm 23 weeks pregnant and I'm crying because of all the love…

I'm 45 and I'm a single mom by choice. I love it. Don't need to worry about custody battles or nothing at all.
I can’t stop crying from joy.
She is very positive, that’s amazing
I’m so happy to see positive comments here. She makes a good mommy.
