“My IVF baby turns 12 this week — and having attempted frozen and fresh IVF cycles six years ago, which did not result in pregnancies — I can also hold tenderly the space for those who have heard those words, ‘Only one child?’

Yes. Only one. Only one, magical, amazing, child destined to be ours.

How blessed am I?

Our thoughts are so very powerful, and I would like to leave you with these thoughts:

You are not broken.

You never were.

Be gentle with yourself.”

Dympna Weil is an obstetrician-gynecologist.

She shares her story and discusses her KevinMD article, “A physician’s infertility story.”
