Overcoming the Odds: The Birth of Our Baby Boy

After getting married in September 2015, my wife and I immediately began the process of trying to conceive. We worked with CNY Fertility in Buffalo and had an amazing experience! Words can't fully express how wonderful our NP, Kris Ziegler, was throughout the entire process. As with any infertility journey, there are trials and tribulations, and mine was no different. From cysts to shingles, Kris was there for me every step of the way, providing the support I needed.

There were many nights when I felt upset or overwhelmed, and Kris was always there for me. After four failed IUI attempts, I felt defeated and began to wonder if we were meant to have a baby. Kris could tell I was losing hope and assured me that she would do whatever it took to help me achieve my dream.

For our fifth round, we decided to try injectables and switched our sperm donor. I remember feeling very tense the day of the procedure and left the clinic convinced that this round hadn't worked and that we would need to move on to IVF. Imagine our surprise when we got the news that we were pregnant!

Although ecstatic, I remained cautiously optimistic during those first few weeks. Once we were released from CNY's care at 9 weeks, I began to feel more hopeful that our dream was truly becoming a reality. On January 12th, 2017, I delivered our precious baby boy!

I can't thank Kris and all the staff at CNY enough for their hard work and dedication. We will definitely be returning to CNY in the future!
