Even with all of Shelby and Marissa Blackstock’s happy moments, the couple has faced some struggles since becoming husband and wife. As Marissa has shared in a few Instagram updates, they’ve had to undergo fertility treatments.
Marissa’s first update came in November 2023. In an Instagram post, she shared that after a year of trying to fall pregnant without any kind of intervention, their first cycle of fertility treatments hadn’t been successful. She also shared that she was speaking about it because despite so many people facing the same struggles, not many were talking about it. “The silence around fertility struggles needs to be broken. It’s a tougher and more common journey than many realize,” she wrote.
Sadly, a few months later, the couple had still not had success. Taking to Instagram again, Marissa admitted that she’d been devastated by every month that went by without falling pregnant. “These past few months have been a whirlwind of hope and heartbreak, a constant battle against feelings of inadequacy and the suffocating silence that comes with this struggle,” she said. She also doubled down on needing to break the silence, and sent her love to anyone going through fertility issues of their own. “You’re not alone. We’re in this together, through the highs, the lows, and every heart-wrenching moment in between,” she wrote.
