Baby- Struggle With Miscarriage
After marriage, Ellen and Bekari struggled for years to have a baby. Ellen was frustrated to see her other friends getting pregnant and having babies. As per ellenruckersellers.com, age was a slight factor — her ovarian reserve was that of 35 years old and all of her reproductive organs looked normal and well functioning.
But, she was diagnosed with unexplained infertility when the pair went for consultation and testing where her Reproductive Endocrinologist told them to go home and track her ovulation and keep trying. The doctor even also suggested returning to the hospital for the next steps if things didn’t work accordingly.

Eventually, Ellen became pregnant in February 2017. The couple had their first appointment on 17 April 2017 at 8 am. They patiently waited for the Ultrasound Technician to come in to do the ultrasound. Shortly after the scanning process, Ellen was asked: ”how many weeks was she?" And in return, she replied almost 9 weeks. After the scanning process, the doctor entered and explained to them that there was no heartbreak on the ultrasound and that the baby was not vital.
Despite their first miscarriage they determined themselves not to be broken. So, they did many IUI procedures the same year which also failed. The next step that Ellen and her husband took was the second IVF cycle, the implantation process that required much blood work and many visits to the doctor.
And, luckily the process did work for them. She became pregnant for one more time in May 2017.
