Read MoreOn February 25th, I received the phone call that no one ever wants to get - “I’m so sorry Julia, that lump in your breast is cancerous”. At age 29, 4 months before our wedding, 5 months before we wanted to try to conceive, we found out I will be going through chemotherapy instead. Immediately I was thinking about my fertility and how chemo might affect our chances of having a baby.
Read MoreMy husband and I struggled with infertility for 3 years. It was a tough time that we were often quiet about. We went through 6 IUI’s, 3 miscarriages, 1 ectopic pregnancy, and 2 rounds of IVF to get our Sophie girl.

We were visiting friends when I showed them the ring I was going to propose to Amanda with. Fast forward a few years, we were once again in Bulgaria when we knew we wanted to start a family and settle down in our hometown of Kelowna, Canada.
Read MoreAfter almost 5 years of trying to conceive and working with doctors, plus 4 failed rounds of IUI we looked at the thought of proceeding down the journey of In Vitro Fertilization (IVF). Neither Bryce or I had anything medically wrong that prevented us from having children or impacted the process, it just simply wasn't going to happen on its own.
