So we know that at the time not many of your friends or family knew the bundle you were carrying was through embryo adoption. How did they take the news? “They were quite surprised and honestly did not believe us at first. It took a lot of convincing, but once they realized we weren’t joking, everyone just thought how cool!”

Would you recommend this for other couples that are struggling with infertility? “Absolutely, even the tiniest lives are priceless. I cannot express how much being able to carry a baby inside one last time means to me. To hear his heartbeat, to feel his little kicks, to welcome him into this world, it has been an amazing experience.”

Do you plan on having any more? “As far as pregnancies go, I think the door has closed. However, if we can financially handle another adoption like our Gracie girl, that is something we are open to. We’ll just have to see what the Lord has in store.”
