Tara & Jacob's Story:

Jake and I got married in 2015 and started trying for kids right away but had no luck.

With fertility treatments being expensive, we just held out hope that it would happen naturally.

During the pandemic I joined groups for IVF and someone mentioned CNY.  I looked into it and found the prices to be affordable for us!

With the help of family, we started the process in November 2021. After three egg retrievals and six transfers (five frozen, one fresh), we finally got our perfect baby girl in January 2024.

Like most people say she is 10000% worth every shot, poke, procedure I had to go through to get her here!!!

Favorite Team Member at CNY:

Dr Chang!

Helpful resources Tara & Jacob found:

Join groups on Facebook. Find a local buddy to talk with about it. When the groups become too much, create some separation by silencing them and return when you're ready.

The Moment:

When I saw the "positive" test I was nervous, happy, overwhelmed and hopeful. I wished and prayed this baby into existence.

When I first held her I was overwhelmed and still felt like, OMG this is happening, she is here, she is real, and she is mine!!

Hope, Inspiration and Advice:

Check what medication you will actually be on before ordering them. The process is different for everyone!

Advocate for yourself. If you want testing or a procedure done then keep asking until you get it.
