Infertility sucks! Yep we know that’s exactly what you’re thinking and it’s absolutely okay to say it. Shoot it’s okay to scream it and tell the whole world. We have experienced infertility first hand an went through years of infertility treatments before having our twins. Everything we endured, all the pain, sadness, and hopelessness we felt was finally at peace the moment our twins were born. Becoming parents after the long journey of infertility is what inspired and pulled at our hearts to help anyone else in any way we could during their journey too. Here are some of our favorite infertility resources that we want to share with you! We mention some of our favorite highlights, but they are all full of tons of great information!

The grants awarded will give couples that do not have insurance, nor the financial resources to pay for infertility treatments, the opportunity to fulfill their dream of a family. In hopes of doing this, Starfish Infertility Foundation has established two grants, the Bexleigh Grant and the Braxton Grant, each named for my two amazing IVF miracles.
