In interviews with PEOPLE and other outlets, the couple shared that their path to parenthood was marked by setbacks and perseverance. After trying to conceive for nearly two years, Alyssa and Justin pursued in vitro fertilization (IVF) and underwent five rounds of treatment before achieving success. People.com+2People.com+2

During this process, Alyssa also learned she had endometriosis, a condition that can complicate fertility. She admitted she had been undiagnosed for years until she began the IVF journey. People.com+1

Alyssa explained that part of the reason she waited to share the news publicly was to get through the 20-week anatomy scan and ensure everything was developing normally. People.com

She has since described her pregnancy symptoms as comparatively gentle: “I feel like … the pregnancy actually feels blissful compared to the IVF journey,” she said, noting that the pharmaceutical and hormonal side effects of IVF had been especially difficult. People.com

Of becoming a mother to a boy, she joked about her current household dynamic: “We have two male dogs, so at home it’s already ‘boy world’ — and I come here to work with four women!” She added thoughtfully that she grew up with sisters and had always liked the idea of a big brother watching over younger children. People.com+2People.com+2
