For Baltimore Sun reporter Yvonne Wenger, years of unsuccessful pregnancy attempts turn what should be cheerful moments — greeting neighbors and their children, celebrating friends' baby showers — into torment. The struggle brought thousands of dollars in medical bills and nearly tore her marriage apart, but never shattered her hope of becoming a parent. What might have been an ending for some families was only a beginning for hers. She and her husband Artie could have never predicted where they would end up.


Yvonne's story is also being told in words, pictures and video at baltimoresun.com/thewait.
