- The only thing
that we require

for getting pregnant
with Type I diabetes

is having that A-1C number
at a 6.5.

- I have a surprise.

- [gasps]

- My A-1C is now 6.5.

Come give me a hug.

And that is what I needed.

The next step is to
get pregnant.

- My divorce with Bar
is still ongoing.

There's just a lot going on
in terms of, like,

me trying to cover
all the bases

so Holly doesn't feel any
absence with her dad

and she knows he's in jail.

She does not know why.

And of course,
we don't know for how long.

- I'm just calling to let
you know I was gonna

come down for Nova's birthday.

- Oh.
- Hey.

- You know the statistics
for Nova, right?

- What?

- She'll become a teenage mom.

- Devoin coming in and out
is causing a lot for Nova.

And, like,
now she's in therapy.

- Me being 13,
I wanted my father around,

and it didn't happen.

'Cause of that, I looked
elsewhere for attention.

And I'm terrified that
that will happen with Nova.

- So what brings you in today?

- We were looking into
the different options

of having another baby.
- Mm-hmm.

Or freezing my eggs
and waiting.

We are trying to get pregnant.

It's definitely taking
longer than I thought.

Maybe the timing
just isn't right,

'cause could I be excited
for a new baby

when my first baby is,
like, suffering right now?

- My mom doesn't want
to take a drug test.

- But if you were clean,
it's a simple test.

- Christy,
she needs an intervention

with everybody there.

- This is bullshit!
- Just hear me.

- A fucking setup, man.

they took a sperm,

and they made an embryo,
all right?

So these are our embryos.

These are little
Khessy and Mac.

Um, this is called
the MacKhessy embryos.

All right,
we have four embryos, right?

But we are choosing
to transfer two.

Why are we choosing
to transfer two?

Because if you transfer
two embryos,

there's an 80% chance

one of them sticks
and you have one baby.

However,
this comes with the risk

that there's a 20% chance
that both of them stick

and you have twins.

There's a 2% chance
that these both split

into two different babies.

Now you got four.

- That would be very bad.

- OK, but we should acknowledge
that she is risking that.

- Yes.
- Yes.

- That's a huge health risk
on her body.

- But I would rather be told
I'm pregnant with twins

than I'm not pregnant

I can go through this again.

I'm gonna be very, very honest.

some things in her mind.

Like, the idea of him being

for your own self, like,

why Daddy can't call,

what I think is best for Holly.

And when it comes to
his daughter,

I always try to really separate

me and him personally

from him and her,

because they really are
two different things.

As a mom, there's, like,
literally no worse feeling

than not being able to give
your kid what they need.

And she is sometimes too aware
of my emotions

to where she doesn't want to--

she knows I'm going through
something.

I know it affected her
to literally not see her dad.

And I saw it in ways of just,
like, "Well, I guess,

you know,
I'll tell Dad when I can,"

or "I'll write this down
so I can remember it."

Now that we kind of
have that figured out,

I feel like now
I'm back looking at myself,

trying to figure out why
I haven't gotten pregnant.

Last year, we went and saw
a fertility doctor,

but now that we are deciding
to try for another baby,

we feel like
we should go back to see her

just to see is everything
working the way it should be?

At this point,
we've been trying

to get pregnant now
for around seven months

and it just hasn't
happened yet.

We need to head out soon.

- Oh, my gosh--

they could do your sperm count.

OK, let's go.

Let me go get some shoes.

- But I am genuinely curious
to see what she has to say.

Only because the last time
we went to the doctors,

we were all over the place
of like, do we freeze eggs?

Do we want to have
another baby?

Do we not want to
have another baby?

Do we have time?

And I think this time,

it's like
we're going in, like--

- With a--
- With a goal.

- Uh, we're trying
to have a baby.

I feel like last time
we were here,

we didn't know what to do.

- Yeah.
- But we've been trying now.

- Uh-huh.

- But it's been, like,
around seven-ish months.

- Oh.
- And yeah,

it hasn't been successful yet.

- And are your periods
coming every month

during that seven months?

- So the first, like,
two months,

it was kind of, like,
hit or miss

because I was off birth con--
I was getting--

- So you had been
on birth control?

- I've been on
birth control, yeah.

- OK.

So it may be that
you're not ovulating.

And then we want to
help you ovulate.

Right?
- Mm-hmm.

It may be that you're ovulating
different than what you think

you're supposed
to be ovulating,

and so you're missing it
because you're trying

to get pregnant on day 14,
and you're actually ovulating

on day 18 to 20,

and you're tired by then
and you've stopped trying.

- Makes sense.
- So sometimes

that's all it is.

So what we need to do,
we want to check up

if we think you're ovulating

and what your ovaries
look like.

- OK.
- And obviously,

things can change with sperm.
OK?

So let us be off and we're
going to do an ultrasound.

And then you're going
to do a sperm test.

- I'm literally faking it
till I make it.

Like, I don't know
what I'm doing.

- And Devoin?

He knows?

- No, he doesn't know anything.

I don't even think he knows
she's in therapy.

- Why?

- He don't ask.

Like, he doesn't--

I don't know.
I don't bring it up either.

Like, I don't know
if that's something

she wants him to know.

So I'm like respecting--
- No, no, no, no.

He should know.

He should definitely know.

- But Nova told me that

"I just don't want to talk
about my dad.

We could talk about
anything else."

And I asked why,
and she was like, "I just--

I just don't want to."

But maybe Nova's learning
a boundary or two at therapy.

- But you can't fight
this battle alone.

But I think
you're smart enough,

wise enough

to help Nova cope.

And you're a good mom.

You are.

- How have you been doing since
you got out of the hospital?

- I feel a little better today.

Yeah, I missed dinner.

What happened?

- I mean, everybody but you
was basically there.

And we had a good dinner
at first.

And then Aunt Kim said--

oh, she said she was proud
of my mom.

She was like, I'm really proud
of you for keeping--

you know, paying your bills,
and, you know,

having an apartment.

And then she--then she said--

what did you say?

I love you very much.

And before she could finish,
my mom jumped the fuck up

and said, fuck no.

- I know what this bullshit--

I should know what
this bull shit is--

- I know what the fuck's
going on in here.

And then my mom was
basically yelling,

"I don't want no fucking help."

And--
- What?

She thought it was
an intervention?

- Yeah. I think it was--

- She must've sensed something.

- Guilty conscience, maybe.

- Thank you.

Hey, I was shaking.

You know--
- I was shaking.

- I'm glad I wasn't there.

- Yeah, you're--yeah.

Yeah. Yeah.

- 'Cause I've just come
to the point where

she's going to do
what she wants.

- Yeah, that's what I said
to Aunt Kim, was like--

- You might as well
just enjoy her.

- I don't want no parts.
Yeah.

My peace of mind is important.

- It is.

- So I just don't want
to bother

with the situation no more.

'Cause I think we were just
coming from a place of,

you know, looking out, like,
hey, we care about you.

But it turned into this--

basically, we're all evil
people plotting on her.

And I'm like, that's not--
you know that's not who we are,

and that's not what
we're trying to do.

- Well, I think she thought
that we were just

trying to check her for drugs.

- No one's trying
to point your finger

and say you're doing this.

We're saying, like,
we're seeing your behavior--

- I can tell you this--
- And we're worried about it.

But I know that there's a day
that my mom

won't be here either.

I want to be able to
spend time with my mom

and have a good time with her
and hang out with her.

I'm just hoping with
that whole dinner

that maybe that made her
start to like, you know,

rethink a little bit,
or take into consideration

some of the stuff that we were
saying in a positive way

and not a negative way.

So I'm just hoping
as we get older

that maybe it can get better
as adults.

'Cause now we're adults.

You don't need to raise me.

But I think what hurt us more
is me trying to raise you.

I wish I could just grab my
mom, like, give her a kiss

and be like, oh, I love you.

It's just I don't have
that relationship with her.

Mm-mm.

Yeah, I don't think it's my job
to really do anything else

for my mom,
or for her sobriety,

or for her mental health.

Like, I think I've done
my fair share.

There's--there's no
other change

that I need to make
with how I move.

There's nothing else
I need to do or change

'cause it's not my life.

I can only control me.

Me, myself,
I've done more than enough.

I think I'm allowed to say,
you know what?

This isn't good for me.

I don't want to

something like, um,

she wants me, her mom,

to spend more time with her

telling the therapist

have left Florida,

he's very nonchalant about it,

Nova's just going to have to

"deal with it 'cause this is
just what it is.

I did it.
She can do it type of thing."

make Nova resent him more
