There can be a number of reasons why the human body may not work as we expect – and this includes pregnancies. From not being able to get pregnant to having 3 miscarriages, Hannah Corman describes the path she walked to unravel the causes of her miscarriages. She found a diligent doctor and together they worked on solutions that would allow her to carry healthy babies to viability – and beyond. Even though there is heartbreak involved with infertility, Hannah reminds us there can be hope, too.
Key Takeaways:
- The author has an appointment to keep and she is running through the avenues of Manhattan with semen samples in a brown bag.
- She finally makes it to the fertility clinic so as to have the semen sample approved and pays the $700 that is required for them to use it.
- What the author learned from the process of trying hard to conceive is that there are some things that just have to be for a successful pregnancy.
“Even after a year of trying to conceive, I couldn’t say at that point that I’d lost hope, because I hadn’t. I know a lot of people who tried a lot longer to have a baby. We had already endured one miscarriage at nine weeks, which prompted us to find a fertility doctor and figure out what might be going on. Thank goodness we did.”
