After trying to conceive for 8 months my husband was diagnosed with azoospermia. He has a rare mutation of cystic fibrosis and is missing his vas deferens. We tried IVF with TESE one time but it resulted in a BFN. We started our domestic adoption journey in January 2011 and our baby girl was born 8/15/11. She is totally worth the wait, tears, and heartbreak.
