Sisters Emily Robinson and Martie Maguire of the Dixie Chicks both struggled with infertility and miscarriages. "You grow up as a woman, I think, thinking that you're going to have a child and that it's just kind of your God-given right to the next step. And when it doesn't happen, you're shocked and saddened, and it's such an emotional journey to go on," said Maguire in a 2006 interview with ABC.

"I think you go through almost every motion," said Robinson. "I know my husband felt guilty. I felt guilty." The Dixie Chicks even wrote a song, "It's So Hard When It Doesn't Come Easy," about the challenges that Robinson and Maguire faced when trying to have children. "Thank God for science," Robinson added. "We have been blessed to live in an era when we have been able to do something about it."

Although neither Robinson nor Maguire specified which fertility treatments, if any, they underwent, it all worked out in the end. Robinson and her husband have three children including twins Henry and Juliana, and Maguire and her husband are parents to twins Eva and Kathleen.
