A Real IVF Journey Told by Meera from Chennai
Becoming a mother was always my biggest dream. But after years of marriage, countless prayers, emotional breakdowns, and hospital visits, I began to lose hope. My name is Meera, and this is the story of how I finally held my baby in my arms—after 8 long years of waiting, with the help of Dr. Aravind’s IVF Centre.
The Struggles We Faced
My husband Karthik and I got married when I was 26. Like many Indian couples, we expected to start a family within a year or two. But time passed, and nothing happened. Every month came with silent hope—and ended with disappointment.
At first, we thought we just needed a little more time. But when 3 years passed, we knew we had to seek help. We visited multiple hospitals and tried various medications, and even attempted IUI (Intrauterine Insemination) a few times. Nothing worked.
It wasn’t just a physical struggle—it affected our mental peace, our relationship, and our self-confidence. We started avoiding family functions, baby showers, and any event where we had to answer the question: “So when’s the good news?”
Discovering Dr. Aravind’s IVF Centre
One evening, a close friend suggested we visit Dr. Aravind’s IVF Centre in Chennai. She told us that many couples who had lost hope were finally conceiving after IVF treatment there. We hesitated at first, thinking, “What if this is just another failed attempt?” But we gathered our courage and walked into the clinic.
From the very first consultation, things felt different. The staff was kind and didn’t make us feel like patients. They spoke to us like family. They listened—really listened—to our journey so far. There was no rush, no pressure. Just calm, clear guidance.
We underwent a series of tests and finally received a treatment plan tailored to our needs.
Our IVF Journey
The IVF process wasn’t easy. There were injections, scans, blood tests, emotional ups and downs—but this time, something inside me felt stronger. Maybe it was the support I received at every step from the centre. Maybe it was the silent prayer I whispered every night before bed.
After the embryo transfer, the dreaded two-week wait began. Those 14 days felt like 14 months. I avoided overthinking but couldn’t stop myself from Googling every little symptom.
Then, the day came. The pregnancy test was positive.
Tears of Joy
I remember crying silently in the car after hearing the words “You are pregnant.” I wasn’t sure whether I was dreaming. For the first time in 8 years, I could say it: “I’m going to be a mother.”
The journey after that wasn’t entirely smooth—IVF pregnancies need extra care—but Dr. Aravind’s IVF Centre supported me throughout. Every scan, every concern, every fear was handled with warmth.
In March this year, I delivered a healthy baby boy. We named him Aarav—a name that means peaceful. And that’s exactly what he brought into our lives.
