Dyna, so glad the only issue was low sperm count, which very well could change on the next one. I agree with GJ. We were told 2 days when we did IUI.

GJ, praying that everything is fine and that you receive a good report of health!

Praise God!!! Everything went wonderfully, the Doc said everything looked perfect. He saw a cyst on my ovary, which he believes is from my endometriosis, but said its nothing to worry about.

My blood work and hubby's SA came back great

So now I just have to wait for my appointment next week to be cleared for IVF

I feel so good right now and thanking God for His peace and comfort during this whole process.

Yay!!! So happy for you! Praise God for good news.

Dyna - Praise GOD! Do you ever have that moment of, "Sneaky, sneaky, God..." after those moments of waiting for an answer are over? I know I do.

Sarah - How exciting! God is GOOD!!!

Oh Sarah that's exciting! Next step a pretty set of pink lines on your BFP! Praise The Lord!

I'm not too focused on getting a BFP at the moment as lots is going on. I don't want to really say what's happening as people may "google" things and work out who I am..don't want gossip in the town I'm in. But, it's good news.

Moving overseas to serve Jesus. Been a dream for over 10 years- so very exciting.
God places dreams in our hearts which mayn't come to fruitition for many years. Perhaps my dh and I have to wait for over 10 years to conceive? I don't know. May God's will be done for His glory.
May each of keep drawing near to Him.

Yay

that's wonderful news sweetie! Until times like this, we don't realize that God sometimes has other plans for our lives. I pray that if having a baby is still your hearts desire, that God will comfort you through this upcoming journey and in His perfect time all things will come to pass.

Thanks Sarah! God is good!
How are you going? praying that God will help you and your dh through this IVF process and for a child.

Yes, I still majorly desire a child! Well, children. Ultimately, I'd love a big family - but over the past 6 months, it seems like God is telling me "one day" whenever I want to know "Why not my turn?" It is so hard sometimes when friends fall pregnant easily. But, God has a different plan for each one of us and I got to trust Him in this and not look at what He is doing in another person's life and compare. I think we compare too much as humans- hey?
perhaps my dh and I will end up adopting orphans while overseas?

I don't know how that is possible since we can't afford it. And I'd also love to be pregnant. I think it'd be really hard to never fall pregnant and, even if I do adopt, I think I'd still always ache a little whenever I see pregnant women. I read a Christian woman's blog and how she ended up adopting, but still ached to be pregnant. God made it happen for her though.

I'm ready for all the testing to be over with

but again, I'm so grateful to have this opportunity.

Isn't it crazy when you sit back and think about how God already has it all planned out? He is just wanting us to completely trust Him and while we are on this journey, to continue to serve Him and allow Him to use us in any way, as His vessels. I'm so glad that your dreams of going overseas to serve our precious Lord and Saviour are being fulfilled, and just as that was fulfilled, I pray the desire for children will be fulfilled as well.

This weekend was definitely no fun for me, I got the flu and have been stuck at home. I haven't called in sick to work in years and had to ask my Supervisor if I could take a vacation day. I still have a slight fever and was not wanting anyone else to get sick

How's everyone else doing?

Sarah, have you been to the doctor? It's dreadful that you've been stuck at home, but your body needs some rest from fighting that virus. Good thing you had vacation days to take, don't want you overworking and possibly getting sicker!

This weekend was my husband's birthday, so we spent a relaxing weekend in NC with his family. It was beautiful Sunday and yesterday, but now the bitter winter weather has caught up to us. I don't think I was much prepared for it.

My husband and I have been drifting away from our conception method (SMEP) lately, but hopefully we can make up for it with the remainder of this week.
