Bryana's Story:

Logan and I are high school sweethearts. We made it through high school, college, career path changes, and everything in between. When we were finally settled in our careers, we thought, okay, now it’s time for a baby! We had enjoyed 10-plus years of just the two of us; it was time for a new addition. 

After almost a year of negative tests, we knew something wasn’t right. We both went through all the testing and confirmed my diagnosis of PCOS.

We would then go through 10 medicated cycles and 2 IUIs without success. We were losing hope.

A friend recommended CNY and described their care as the “Chick-fil-A service” of fertility clinics, so we took the leap.

After one egg retrieval followed by a failed frozen embryo transfer (FET), we gave it one more shot, and our second transfer stuck! 

After two long years we finally saw two pink lines! We found out we were having a boy and named him Atlas which means strength and endurance. Such a meaningful name for our strong little boy. We are forever grateful for CNY and their wonderful patient care through the whole process. We are overjoyed with our new bundle of joy.

Favorite Team Member at CNY:

The acupuncturist was amazing!
The doctor performing our transfers said a prayer for us after and we will forever be grateful for him.

The Moment:

The moment I saw the two pink lines, every week my belly grew and even the moment they laid him on my chest for the first time was so surreal. Tears of joy and such a sigh of relief to have baby Atlas earthside with us.

Hope, Inspiration and Advice:

Don’t lose hope! There’s a plan in place and beating infertility is the ultimate prize when you have your sweet baby in your arms.
