Operation Baby Quattlebaum, IVF

This story is from my beautiful niece Rachael. I have watch her for the past few years wanting to add a baby to her family.  With everything she has been through I ask if I could help by starting a gofundme page. They are very humble when it comes to asking for help. Rachel and Adam have struggled having a baby for years now. I would like for you to read there story and help if you can. No donation is to little to help. Thank You

Never-ending injections, multiple pelvic ultrasounds, hormone medications, 6 inseminations, 1 radiological procedure, 1 surgery and thousands of dollars spent. This is just a snap-shot of the numerous things that I have had done to my body since my husband and I decided to try and conceive a child 5 years ago. And this does not even begin to account for the emotional roller coaster ride we have been on with every failed attempt at pregnancy, every birth announcement received, every child’s birthday party attended, and every question of “when are you and Adam going to have a baby?”. The pain of infertility is unimaginable. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. The constant self-doubt makes you question whether or not you are a good person or if maybe you’re being punished for something. You know in your head that is not the case. You tell yourself constantly that you know better, but as a woman when you are struggling with something so basically fundamental as trying to conceive a child, all logic goes out the window. I mean, this is what a woman’s body has been made to do. Biologically, it is literally how life goes on. Unfortunately, my body will not or at least has not yet allowed me to conceive. Our next option is Invitro-fertilization (IVF). However, this procedure costs close to $20,0000. Most people I know can’t afford this, but then again most people I know can just conceive at home the old-fashioned way and don’t have to pay a dime. If Adam and I want to have children, this is the next thing we have to do to try. I am grateful for our journey because we have grown so much closer in our struggle. We have cried together, laughed together (sometimes you kind of have to), prayed together and also gotten extremely angry together. He has picked me up out of a crumpled pile of tears on the floor and held me and without even having to say anything, made me feel like everything was really going to be okay because I have him by my side. Our hope dwindles with every negative pregnancy test. I try to stay positive and I hide the pain very well with jokes and laughs, but every time I see a commercial, show or movie with a couple reading a positive pregnancy test or having a baby it brings tears to my eyes. We just want to be parents. We have so much love and knowledge to pass along to a little one. We just want the opportunity.
