Small Oil/Collage

Somebody I know tries to get pregnant via IVF.
Most couples just assume that having a baby when the time is right will be a natural part of their journey together. However, the reality is that a growing number of people are struggling with infertility problems.
Infertility affects about 6.1 million people in the United States, about 10% of men and women of reproductive age.
New and advanced technologies to help a woman become pregnant include in vitro fertilization (IVF).

After going through several unsuccessful IVF cycles, there are many things that run through her head that are hard to grasp.
That being said, one of the hardest parts of IVF and fertility treatments in general is playing the waiting game.

If my friends only could be assured that one... just one... IVF cycle worked...

This collage is meant for all of those who are in the same situation:
Hang in there!
