Some think an in vitro fertilization contest sounds crazy, but countless Americans desperate to start a family believe this social media experiment is their only hope. Vegas Baby is a profile of patients of a Las Vegas fertility clinic. Each year, the clinic hosts a YouTube-based competition called “I Believe,” which gives one lucky couple a shot at an in vitro fertilization treatment they could not otherwise afford. Hundreds of couples apply, yet there can be only one winner.

This is a wonderful documentary that shares what it's like to walk through the infertility journey. If you've struggled, or someone you love has, I highly recommend watching this short film.Unfortunately, there are so many misconceptions about what it takes to reproduce. I didn't realize how many there were, until I unexpectedly found myself facing this challenge. The movie shines a light on some of these. My favorite "character" was probably Athena's mother. She was a wise & caring lady and without being in amidst the struggle herself, seemed to truly "get it." There can be numerous ups and downs on this path, both physically and emotionally. Because of this, I thought it was incredibly brave of these men & women to share their struggles so openly in this format. At times, it honestly felt like looking in a mirror. I'm grateful, because it helped me to process my own emotions in different ways. Kudos to the director & team -

While I am much earlier in my journey then the women featured in this documentary this movie hits home.  It captures the emotions of infertility in a way I didn't think  was possible .  I highly recommend that anyone who knows someone going through infertility or if you are experiencing  infertility yourself you watch this film.

Vegas Baby is definitely a great film! As someone who has struggled with infertility for seven years and just recently went through IVF herself, I truly appreciated this documentary in more ways than one. It sheds so much light on the struggles people go through to complete their family. This film is definitely eye opening to those that have never traveled the road of infertility and is emotional for those of us who have. It's a must watch!

This is a moving, important documentary that follows the stories of a diverse group of couples and individuals as they struggle with infertility. Equal parts informative and emotional, this film is one that resonates with audiences regardless of their own experiences with pregnancy, infertility, parenthood, etc.
