Need a Miracle Just #1

I want to wish everyone luck who posted on here... May god bless us all with at least one child of our own. So we can all experience the wonderful miracle of becoming a mother for at least just one time.

I am 24yrs old soon to be 25. My husband is 26 going on 27. We have been going to a fertility doctor. His sperm count came back normal. I found out I was the problem. The doctor said I was not ovulating. He started me off with 50mg Clomid on days 5-9 cycle. last month 1/2008. I got my blood work done and it came back that I had not ovulated. The next thing I know I got my period. You can imagine how that felt.

I was depressed and crying. My husband by my side was comforting me saying it's okay we can try again. I managed to get over that depressed emotion and I am now on round 2 of clomid but now it was doubled to 100mg. I just went today to the doctor to get my blood work done. I am hoping and praying that I did ovulate this time. I will be getting my results within days. I am so nervous to find out if it worked or not. I really don't want to feel the negative responses again.

I feel I cannot deal with any more pain and sadness anymore. I look at myself in the mirror and say to myself I am useless as a woman because I cannot give my wonderful husband a family.

Please pray for me that I will pray for you. I will let you know my results..... God Bless You All!

Dear Lisa,
I feel for you, & I will keep praying for you that you are successful.

If you can't conceive, would you consider adopting a child out of the system? So many unfortunate children need homes, I;'ve already become a foster parent I;m just waiting for the paper work.

I pray that the good LORD will bless you & your hubby one way or another. May the LORD bless you & keep you in your time of sorrow.

Keep Praying Mindi

I know exactly how you feel. I will soon be 40 years old this July & my husband & I have been trying for 8 years. My husband has had a visectomy reversal but it didn't work. I have done 3 IUI with donor sperm, all unsuccessful.

My husaband said that I could do it once more & that was it! I am praying that it works this time. I know how hard & sad it is. I cried an awful lot. But I know that our good LORD has a reason for making us wait.

Just keep on praying & don't forget that JESUS loves you & that's why he died on the cross for you.
The LORD has kept me from doing anything stupid. I will pray for you as well as everyone.
But you & I are very similar situations.

trying for #2

My husband & I conceived easily with our first child when I was 40 years old and we have a healthy, beautiful, spirited son. We have been trying for the past year and half to have baby #2 without much luck. We had a miscarriage October of 2006 and we have not been pregnant since.

I did 6 unsuccessful cycles of chlomid and then off to the RE. He said due to my age, we should skip IUI and go straight to IVF. I did a full round of shots with IVF to only have one egg at the end of the expensive and painful shots. No retrieval that month, so we did IUI resulting with no pregnancy. Then the next month my FSH was too high to do anything. Very discouraging.

Then last month, FSH was ok and we go for another round of IVF shots. 4 shots a night in the belly. Painful. The ultrasound shows 6 eggs...way better than last time. We were encouraged. The next ultrasound 4 days later showed on 3 follicles had grown....the last ultrasound show only one follicle had grown (the other follicles had regressed and basically disappeared!) so no IVF again for us.

We did IUI on thursday and now my fingers are crossed as this may be our final try to have another baby. I am 44 and really may be at the end of baby years. It is so sad and so discouraging. I do not want my son to grow up an only child....

My husband and I met very late in life (in baby years that is). Never thought this would be a problem that we would encounter.

Please bless me LORD

My husband had a vasectomy reversal about 8 years ago. we have been trying ever since. The doctor said that he had low sperm count. So we have done 3 IUI with a donor unsuccessfully.

I will be 40 this year. My husband said that that I could try once more, but that was it. I've been praying that the LORD wont let me do it unless it is successfull, because I can't take this emotional roller coaster any longer, but I also can't take not being a mom.

I feel this is my turn, I will pray for all of you. The LORD is good, & he has his reasons for making us wait! I pray that we all will be like Hannah in the bible.

Yes It is hard to be around pregnant women, I find myself wishing I had morning sickness & bad back pain, anything for a baby!
