“One year ago, Robert and I walked into RAD for our 3rd frozen embryo transfer. We were both excited and scared as we entered that two week wait. But this precious embryo stuck! Now we have our almost 4 month old miracle baby Maisie Lynn! She’s not quite big enough for her RAD onesie yet, but she will always know the embryology team and staff at RAD watched over her and played an enormous part in her life.” – 💛 Andrea

Andrea and Rob’s journey led them to this incredible moment—life with their sweet Maisie Lynn! This special onesie is a heartfelt reminder of the care and dedication that surrounded her from the very beginning. And with her bee socks on, she’s carrying the spirit of beelieving wherever she goes! 🐝 Maisie Lynn, you are a miracle, a joy, and a reminder of all the hope that got you here!✨

March is Surrogacy Awareness Month! ❤️ Every time we share this powerful story, it reminds us of the extraordinary ways families come together.

RADfertility patient Nikki Szymurski beautifully captured her surrogacy journey in this breathtaking photo documentary. With the help of their cherished friend and gestational carrier, Meri, Nikki and Jared welcomed their son, Mark, into the world.

Nikki reflects: “Our journey was overwhelmingly incredible in so many ways. I’m awestruck that my friend could be so selfless and giving; that science has progressed to a point that surrogacy is even an option, and that this option was accessible to us.”

Today is Pregnancy After Loss Awareness Day 💜 Pregnancy after loss is a deeply complex experience - one that intertwines grief and hope in a way only those who have walked this path can truly understand. It is a journey that deserves recognition and support from family, friends, peers, and professionals. It is also a story of resilience, love, and the promise of new beginnings—the story of the rainbow baby. 🌈

Today, we hold space for:
🔹 Those currently pregnant after loss, navigating the mix of joy and uncertainty
🔹 Those who have welcomed their rainbow baby, carrying both love and loss in their hearts
🔹 Those still on their journey, holding hope for their rainbow
🔹 Those grieving, unsure if or when they’ll be ready to try again
🔹 Those who have found their rainbow in a different way, beyond pregnancy after loss

No matter where you are in your journey, your experience is valid, your emotions are real, and you are never alone. 💜

“This onesie represents this true miracle baby! I get filled up to cry every time I think about our journey, all the times we thought about giving up but we didn’t. And I’m so happy we never lost faith and hope! And we continued to BEElieve! 🐝” – Kelsey and Chris
