Campaign Story
My name is Elizabeth Williams. I’ve been with my wonderful husband, Cole, for almost 5 years.
We decided to start trying for a baby right after we got married! I have dreamed of being a mother since I was very young. My husband decided he was also ready to be a dad so we started out journey.
Little did we know our journey would be so complicated and come with very little answers. We are In the 1% of couples that suffer from reoccuring pregnancy loss.
A year into trying we had 3 chemical pregnancies (this is a term for a very early miscarriage). After this we did a number of tests and nothing raised many flags. We were told it was just bad luck.
At this point, we started seeing a fertility clinic. This included multiple rounds of fertility medications, a few different protocols, and lots of supplements. We had another chemical early this year. The following cycle we had a pregnancy that seemed fairly healthy in the beginning. Soon after our numbers quit doubling and 2 ultrasounds confirmed yet another loss. This was incredibly hard to accept as we thought we were on the right track this time.
The following cycle we got the news we had an ectopic pregnancy.
We did 2 rounds of methotrexate before the pregnancy was dissolved. This left us incredibly devastated and feeling hopeless.
We sought out a new o.b and asked for a referral to a reoccuring pregnancy loss specialist. He declined.
By the grace of God we found a specialist who didn’t require a referral. The downfall is the testing and treatments we need are incredibly expensive. If she can’t find anything else, the next step is seeing an immunologist and a functional dr.
These drs usually don’t accept insurance and the testing and treatment is expensive. These drs look into things like autoimmune issues, thyroid issues, and overall underlying issues that may not be well known or connected to pregnancy loss.
We recently found out our insurance denied our genetic testing we had back in March and we owe $8,000 out of pocket. We are already swimming in medical bills from our most recent losses.
Our insurance covers very little when it comes to fertility testing and treatments. For example one medicated cycle can costs are $3,000.
If we find another cause and treatment we are looking at spending a lot more than $3,000 to have a successful pregnancy and bring a baby earthside!
Please help us follow through with our dreams of becoming parents!
