Getting pregnant with Kira was extremely
easy. To be honest, she wasn’t planned at all. My best friend from
college was moving to New Orleans and so we went out on the town for a
night of fun. And drinks of course. At the time, I hated my ex husband. I
had no desire to have his children. We hadn’t slept in the same bed for
months. But on this drunken night, Kira was made. No checking which
days I’m ovulating, no checking my temperature. Just Gods plan.
Fast forward 6 years, I have a handsome
new hubby that I can’t sleep without, Kira is 5and in 2 months I will
become what doctors call a “high risk” for pregnancy. YIKES!
After months of trying to conceive and
LOTS of negative pregnancy tests, ( we are hoping for a boy!) I did some
research on what could be going on. Ok, A LOT OF RESEARCH as to what
could be going on. Endometriosis? Problems after a C-section? Adhesions?
During my research, I kept hearing the term “secondary infertility“.
If you are like me and have no clue what this is, secondary
infertility is the inability to become pregnant or carry a pregnancy to
term after you already have had a baby.
This stopped me in my tracks. What do you
mean you could have a problem getting pregnant after you have already
conceived a child?? I’ve never heard of this before. Everyone I knew who
had fertility problems, had issues getting pregnant the first time. And
for me, getting pregnant was obviously easy. My brain then goes to holy
crap I’m gonna need IVF. I am old now and so are my eggs.
What if I can’t get pregnant again? Am I
really only going to have one child? Am I really only going to be able
to experience pregnancy and child birth with someone I can not stand?
As I continue to google and read more and
more, I found that 60% of women who struggle to conceive stems from
secondary infertility. More than 3 million people in the US alone are
affected by secondary infertility.
At this moment I started realizing I wasn’t alone.
Enter Clear Passage Physical Therapy!
I called one of my college friends and confided in her as to what I was
going through. She shouted, OMG I have the perfect solution for you!
This is truly going to be a God send for you.
Before I know it I’m on the phone with
Larry Wurn, an extremely knowledgeable and kind renowned expert in
infertility. For nearly 30 years, people from around the world have
traveled to one of his facilities to seek his all-natural, holistic,
hands-on and non-surgical treatment for infertility. He has treated some
of the most famous women in Hollywood. He has a 71% success rate
within one year of receiving treatment, also known as the “Wurn Technique.” SOLD!!!
Tomorrow, I start treatment in one of six
of the facilities in Gainesville, Fl. (GO GATORS!) They also have
offices in Indianapolis, D.C., Denver, Miami and Orange County.
I am excited to share a very personal and
private side to my struggle with getting pregnant because I know I am
not alone and I know we all need support in times like these. I’m hoping
by sharing my experience in these times of struggle, it will help
comfort others and educate them on their options with infertility. Kira
needs a sibling and so do I!
Check my Facebook and Instagram for updates over the next two days. Here’s a little info on what will happen during treatment and how it feels, HERE!
