We are neither haters nor jealous women who can’t handle other people’s success. But after so many disappointing years and failed attempts to get pregnant, it was hard to feel like cheering. And thus began our story of IVF (in vitro fertilization), hormones, miscarriage, periods missed, egg harvesting, a shared surrogate, miracles, and—wait for it, we did, for far too long—motherhood.
