The time is here everyone. I'm asking again for your help and support. After no luck with our IUI (intrauterine insemination) at our first fertility clinic. We have made the decision to try IVF (in-vitro fertilization) instead. Our hopes are high as we try again to make our dreams come true by adding another child to our family.
For those who do not know much about us or our fertility journey. Our names are Lacy and ShayVeunte Parks. We met 10 years ago in college and have been inseparable ever since. When I met Shay, we already had our daughter and son by her side and before you knew it, I was right where I was meant to be. We dated for 8 years before we finally tied the knot on July 5, 2020. We started pursuing our dream in 2019. We started Treu'Leigh Delicious Desserts shortly after to help us cover some of the medical costs. We started taking all steps to become pregnant by using the IUI procedure. Through our years at the clinic and failed attempts at pregnancy, we discovered that our journey was going to be harder than expected. I was diagnosed the PCOS (polycystic o***y syndrome), making my body very unpredictable. This knowledge helped me make the decision to first better understand what my body needs from me to make this all happen.
With that being said, we are back with our decision to undergo IVF. We are now working with a fertility clinic that better understands my needs and is helping me through every step of this process. I have made all the necessary changes: Taking all of my prescribed medication, loosing the weight needed (and more), scheduled to undergo a D&C (dilation & curettage) procedure, to help ensure that I have the best chance for my body to hold and carry our child.
Now to the main purpose of this post. I am here to ask everyone who has a heart, loves children, and enjoys happiness to please help. At this time, we need your support in any way you are willing to provide.
