'Love Is Blind' star Alexa Lemieux went through some fertility treatments
The road to pregnancy wasn't an easy one for Alexa and her husband Brennon.
"We've been trying for almost a year and a half, so it was a lot. I went through some fertility treatments and nothing worked," Alexa said while having a chat with People magazine.
She further added, "I was really nervous that maybe we're never going to be able to have kids."
Alexa went on to say, "For me personally, and this isn't how I view women, but I was put on this earth to be a mom. Since I was a child, [I would be asked], 'What do you want to be when you're older?' And people are like, I want to be a princess or an astronaut or whatever it is. I was like, 'I want to be a mom.' That's all I ever wanted to be."
She confessed, "And so, it was just a very downtime for me. I was really going through it because I'm like I can't do the one thing that I feel like I was put on this earth to do. And for me, it strips you of your womanhood. That's what it felt like. And feeling like I was broken."
During that difficult phase, Alexa even asked her partner Brennon if he wished he had married someone else who could have given him a child, while she was experiencing various emotions.
Alexa stated that he told her that whatever will happen in the future is beyond their control, but he loves her unconditionally.
The pair conceived naturally just before they were about to schedule an IVF appointment.

Alexa and Brennon are all ready to become parents and they can't wait to embrace parenthood.
At the moment, the pair is in search of a new home.
Alexa told the media outlet, "I feel like it's just the next chapter for us. It was good timing. We're looking for a house right now, and so it's also very different looking at everything now, like where the nursery will be, and the backyard."
Brennon added, "Every day is another rollercoaster. Because you're trying to plan stuff for the future. And now I just think that [I'm] looking at plans differently. Not daily plans, but future plans differently."
Alexa chimed in, "Above all? I'm so excited for one day when our child's like, 'How did you guys meet?' It's like, 'Do you have 10 hours? Sit down, let's watch a few episodes.'"
Brennon said, "It would be really funny if that happened. I'd laugh!"
How did Alexa Lemieux and Brennon Lemieux meet?
For the unversed, Alexa and Brennon met each other for the first time on the set of Netflix's show 'Love Is Blind.'
The two of them fell in love with each other during Season 3 of the popular series which saw the light of day in 2022.
They were perfect for each other right from the very beginning, and this didn't change when they got married in June 2021.
After the premiere of season 3 in November 2022, Alexa explained to People magazine that their strong bond is built on their mutual devotion to family.
Then, she said, "I think our backgrounds are very different, but at the end the day, we have such a love for family and I think that that love is the most important thing. I could have all the money in the world, but what does it mean if I don't have it with my Brennon? He's everything to me."
'Love Is Blind' Season 6 premieres on February 14, 2024, on Netflix.
