Infertility…it bites! What bites even more is being in limbo. Knowing that you’re infertile but not having the finances to really do anything about it. Well, we have decided, finances be damned. We are going after our greatest desire from every angle we can. I am not getting any younger. I just turned 37 last week and if we have to resort to IVF, our chances of succeeding just go down with each year. DH and I have begun using Young Living Essential Oils to bring our hormones into balance, we have an appt. with a new Fertility Specialist next Tuesday that will hopefully listen to me a little more than the old one (after all, it is my body), we are going to have a consultation with an acupuncturist (just waiting for her to call back to set up appt.) and we’re meeting with an adoption agency on April 2nd. One way or another, we know that God will Bless us with a baby. In the mean time, we’re enjoying our time just the two of us, enjoying sleeping in and are taking a month off together this summer to do some traveling. We know that we will never have $15,000 sitting around to do adoption or IVF so when the time comes, we will either take out a loan, fundraise on gofundme.com, apply for grants and scholarships or possible have to do all 3!! We have been in limbo since July of 13′ so it feels GREAT to finally be proactive again.
It’s such a stressful situation! I hope it all works our 🙂
Thanks Carolina647! It sure is but it helps having other people out there that know what you’re going through!
I am praying for you girl! I am also believing that God will bless you with a beautiful baby!

Thank you Elisha for that scripture! I need to get better about being in the Word. My husband and I do couples devotions most nights and it has made us stronger but now I need to get better about taking that time out of my day to just be with the Lord. I’ve read your story and your strength and Faith are definitely an inspiration to me!
I am so glad I found your blog!! Muon will have your own baby bird too 🙂
