“Sydel Curry-Lee and Damion Lee Excitedly Announce Unexpected 3rd Pregnancy Following Infertility Struggles”

Sydel Curry-Lee and Damion Lee‘s family is growing again! And this time around, it was a complete surprise.

The sister of NBA star Steph Curry and content creator has recently announced that she and her husband, Phoenix Suns player Damion Lee, are expecting their third child together. Curry-Lee has openly shared her struggles with infertility while trying to conceive their son Daxon, 3, and daughter Daryn, who is 15 months old. Although this pregnancy caught them by surprise, they are embracing the idea of expanding their family and facing the challenge of having more children.

A few days ago, Curry-Lee shared the news that she’s expecting again, but this time was a total surprise.

In a social media post on Tuesday morning, she shared her emotions upon learning about her third pregnancy and expressed her excitement for the journey ahead. Prior to revealing her pregnancy video, she included a message to her followers to provide context for her story.

She began with a note of caution, stating, “Please pause to read!! Hi friends! Before diving into this video, I want to give a disclaimer and a sensitivity warning.” Curry-Lee acknowledged that many people started following her because of her fertility struggles and the obstacles that come with starting a family. She wanted to be mindful of their experiences and emotions as she shared her pregnancy news.

Her disclaimer continued to explain that over the past three years, her and her husband watched their family grow with their two children “through the power of prayer and science.”

“This pregnancy as you know was completely unexpected and unplanned. The video you are about to watch is a raw and real reaction just minutes after confirming our 3rd pregnancy thinking it would never happen this way,” she wrote. “I never want to come off ungrateful or insensitive to what others are going through therefore, if you are still in your waiting phase whether that is for baby number 1 or baby number 16, please proceed with caution.”

Curry-Lee shared the video of her and Lee finding out she’s pregnant on both her Instagram and TikTok pages.

Captioned, “Looking back on this I can’t help but be so thankful for TIME! Time to work through emotions and get used to new ideas of life and how you saw your life going! It shows that’s EVERYTHING happens for a reason even if you are shook to the core with its initial arrival! There was a lot going on behind the scenes with me mentally at this time as well which also impacted my initial reaction, but I am so grateful for this blessing and baby already feels like the missing piece to our puzzle. This journey is to be continued, and I look forward to sharing more with you all, friends,” viewers get to see the real emotions the couple went through seeing a positive pregnancy test.

After putting the positive pregnancy test in front of the camera, an array of emotions was flowing from both Curry-Lee and Lee.

“Are you kidding me?” she asked to which Lee replied, “This is real. Really is, Lee for three.”

Curry-Lee seemed to be in full shock over her surprise positive test.

“I literally cannot believe this,” she said. “I feel like we’re acting like we’re on our 16th child.”

She then explained that her recent thought was that she “might want another kid” in five years. Lee responded, “Not five hours.”

“It wasn’t even five hours. It was literally two hours after I said that,” she explained. “If you’re wondering why we don’t seem that surprised, more so like, dang, the reality of it really kicked in, kind of. We’re putting the kids to bed today, tonight, and I got just doing our normal routine, I got a notification on my phone that said that, from my Flow app, that said that my period was 11 days late. It’s not uncommon for it to be late.”

She said she took “multiple pregnancy tests” throughout her postpartum days after having daughter Daryn because her periods were irregular. She said she didn’t think she was pregnant because it took years and IVF to have her two kids.

“Obviously, there’s a lot of emotions. I just started feeling like myself again,” she continued. “I just stopped breastfeeding. I just got my body back like myself. I was making plans for my career.”

The couple continued to share their real and raw feelings about their third pregnancy.

The comment section of Curry-Lee’s posts on Instagram and TikTok were filled with love, support, and excitement over her baby news.

“The way you honor all of your emotions is my favorite thing about you,” one person shared on Instagram. Another added, “Thanks for sharing!!! This was a similar reaction to our third since we are still in the chaos of two toddlers.”

Many could relate to the emotional journey Curry-Lee shared.

“This was me 9 months after having my IVF baby that we had after trying for years! Congratulations!” one TikTok viewer wrote. Another said, “Valid valid valid.” And one other viewer wrote, “This is so real! Understand the feeling completely!”

The mental health advocate and social media influencer has been transparent about her infertility struggles for years. Many who followed her story could relate to much of it.

During her pregnancy with her second child, Curry-Lee shared her fertility struggles with her followers in the hopes that it can help others who can relate and not feel so alone in their journeys.

During National Infertility Awareness Week last year, Curry-Lee shared a video on Instagram captioned, “The days of wondering if we will ever have the family we yearn for. Hearing others ask if we should ‘just take it as a sign to go another route.’ Infertility is one of the toughest things to go through, but every battle to the goal is worth it! I remember those trenches.”

Her caption went on to reflect, “I remember those tears and fears. I still face them to this day. So if you are in the depths, wondering, ‘Will it ever happen for me?’ I hold your heart through this & I pray that whatever the outcome may bring, most of all, you find peace.”
