Everyone in Angie and Nick’s circle of friends and acquaintances had children, but for the pained couple from Twin Falls, Idaho, US, things were much more difficult. They tried and tried, but they could simply not conceive.
They were diagnosed with unexplained infertility, but doctors told Angie that she had to relax more.
“It’s just hard to say relax about it when you’re reminded of it every month when you don’t end up being pregnant,” Angie told CBS.
The couple at last decided to adopt. The decision, and the joy that came along with their new addition to the family, would prove to affect them more than anyone could have imagined. Now that they had adopted a baby, it appears that Angie could finally relax – and she miraculously fell pregnant.
According to doctors, Angie’s infertility may have been exacerbated by the anxiety and stress she had from not getting pregnant.
“Infertility causes the same level of stress as cancer,” psychologist Alice Domar told CBS, adding “if you can relieve the stress, then you can restore normal fertility – which is what happened with them.”
While there’s naturally no sure way of explaining Angie’s sudden pregnancy, I personally believe that stress may have indeed had something to do with everything. Most importantly, a family which once consisted of a rather couple has grown to a beautiful family of four.
