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.

AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks
Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
leedswood 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 -
Kristina Marie 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!
valerielandis Great film with real people, real clinic, real doctors, and nurses and people in the reproductive industry telling the heartbreaking story of several couples journey to parenthood.Education is key and learning about infertility is only half the battle. I recommend this film to see the REAL life examples of what thousands of Americans face if they struggle to conceive. Let's hope no one has to face these issues in the near future, lets fight to get fair coverage for a disability (infertility) that affects 1 in 6 couples and is only getting worse with our prolonging of starting our families later in life.
beckyh77 . If you have considered or gone through IVF, or know someone who has.....this documentary is definitely worth watching!! Having recently gone through IVF and miscarriage, I really identified with the different story lines in this film. Truly, a job well done. Thank you to the film crew for bringing awareness to the world of infertility!
