Nicolle & Gabriel's Story:
We met in 2017 and dreamed of building a family together. After years of trying to conceive and working with multiple IVF clinics, our journey eventually led us to CNY — and from the very beginning, they supported us every step of the way.
We went through two retrievals and four transfers in total. Our one and only fresh transfer gave us the greatest gift of our lives: our healthy, beautiful daughter. Dr. Kondrup carefully adjusted my protocol for our second retrieval, and that change made all the difference. We are beyond grateful to CNY and their incredible staff for helping make our dream come true. Graduating to our OB was such an emotional milestone — so hard to leave, yet beautifully bittersweet as we stepped into this new chapter with our miracle baby.
Favorite Team Member at CNY:
Lexi, Shay and the entire transfer team, both Megans, both Nicoles, and Dr. Kondrup — we are so grateful for each of you.
The Moment:
When we found out we were pregnant, we were completely overjoyed. Our first beta was 66, and watching it continue to rise felt like a dream we had waited so long to finally live. After everything we had been through, every milestone carried so much more meaning. And then the moment we held our daughter for the first time — it was the most incredible experience of our lives. A love like no other, worth every step of the journey.
Hope, Inspiration and Advice:
Don't give up. Give yourself grace. It's okay to ask for help. We are all human, and we are all part of the same community.
