Montana politicians turn a critical eye toward IVF treatments following Alabama ruling

Kalispell resident Margo Nieman remembers everything it took to get pregnant — medications, money and time spent worrying if her attempts at a baby through in vitro fertilization would work.

“I desperately wanted to be pregnant. I wanted to feel the baby grow inside me, I wanted to be able to take care of it in that way and bond with it, and just go through that whole thing with my husband,” Nieman said.

Nieman recently has been reflecting on her journey in light of an Alabama Supreme Court decision that temporarily limited access to IVF in that state.
