Aly and Andrea Want a BABY!!

Hello, It's Aly and Andrea! You might be wondering why our wedding registry is linked to this page or why we are trying to raise money.

We are hoping YOU can be part of our next chapter (After the wedding)----  having a baby!!!

****UPDATE****

People have been asking if we should be having a baby in the first place if we can't afford $5,000 to conceive the child. Here are my responses to that FAQ

-people of all income levels have babies every day... But we will be fine

-insurance will not cover the procedure and it is extremely over priced

-we think it is an awesome thing to know the people we love helped create a new life

- please do not call us selfish for wanting our own child- simply stop reading and leave the page if you do not agree.

Incase you didn't notice, it is impossible for us to conceive on our own. We were hoping to do Partner In Vitro Fertilization, but it is about $30,000. Yeah.

Our new plan is for one of us to get pregnant by artificial insemination. This still costs quite a bit of money but it is more attainable than IVF. Each attempt will cost anywhere from $500-$1,000 and they say it usually takes 3-4 tries until it takes. This cost doesn't include the medication and diagnostic fees that aren't covered through insurance.

So we still need your help to make this possible!

Instead of gifts and registries, we are really hoping friends, family, and even strangers will consider donating  even just a little to help us out on this dream of ours.



It would mean the world to Aly and I to know that the people who love and support us helped create our future child.
