For me it was having a baby. After failing at what Mother Nature says comes naturally, my husband and I took advantage of everything modern medicine had to offer, again without results. Determined to be parents, we were left with the only remaining path - adoption. Though this seemed a more manageable route, adoption is far from predictable. This time our roller coaster ride faced unpredictable birth mothers, unreliable baby brokers, media competitions, mid-night crank calls, repeatedly changing government regulations and strangling red tape. This is the heart-wrenching tale of our convoluted 10-year quest to have a family, from the serious, and sometimes hilarious side of fertility treatments, through two harrowing international adoptions. Our journey is filled with so many cliff hangers it reads more like a suspense tale than reality. As you come along for our wild ride you will be clutching this book praying we don’t get derailed again. Our story of determination and tenacity will give hope to anyone facing a difficult life journey. Let my story motivate you to attain your dreams!
Download or read book Mission Baby written by Vinita Somaiya and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2022-03-19 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Hi, I am Trisha Agarwal, a 35-year-old married woman with a beautiful life but no children. As much as I’d like to believe that becoming a mother is a possibility, I know that there is an equal or maybe a higher probability that I will win a lottery than getting pregnant.” Trisha had always been a happy-go-lucky person who looked at the brighter side of things, till the day she started planning a baby. Soon she realized that there was nothing natural about trying to conceive naturally. To add to her woes, her younger sister, Mishti, was blessed with a baby without much ado. With her biological clock ticking at a pace faster than daily inflation, she decided to take charge and embrace the world of fertility treatments with the confidence that in no time she would be flaunting her baby bump. But soon she realized that the world of fertility treatments was not just overwhelming but also complex, demanding and expensive. From a wide range of blood tests to ovulation trackers, hormonal medicines, transvaginal scans, painful injections and seeking divine intervention, she endured it all and yet did not give up hope. She has come a long way from where she started (considering her dwindling bank balance), has been through a roller coaster of emotions (blame the hormonal injections) and learned a few valuable lessons about herself (she still sucks at accepting failures) in this incredible but daunting mission of conceiving a baby. Will she succeed in this arduous mission?
