Looking back now,
it’s hard to believe everything happened within a few months.

At that time, it didn’t feel fast.

Each step felt long.
Each wait felt heavy.

But somehow, from the first cycle to the second,
everything unfolded within that period.

I think what stayed with me the most
wasn’t just the results.

It was the people along the way.

There were moments I didn’t say much,
but someone would still check in.

Just small things —
a conversation, a message,
someone taking the time to ask how I was doing.

I didn’t always respond with much.

But I felt it.

And then there were the times
I had questions that felt small… or unnecessary.

Still, someone would answer, patiently.

Looking back,
I think those moments mattered more than I realized then.

Because during the process,
you don’t always notice how much support you’re receiving.

You’re just trying to get through each step.

Only after everything settles,
you start to see it more clearly.

After the second cycle,
we finally had embryos that passed the PGTA testing.

That alone already felt different.

We moved forward with the transfer after that.

After everything that happened in the first cycle,
even going into FET felt… quieter.

Less expectation,
but maybe a bit more steadiness.

And this time, it worked.

That it wasn’t something we went through alone.

And maybe that’s why,
even though it was not an easy journey,

it became something I’m quietly grateful for.
