As many of you know, Matt and I have been hoping for a baby for several months now. Ever since we lost our first baby, we thought it was going to happen and happen rather quickly. Unfortunately, it has not. Due to my age, my doctor recommended that we begin fertility testing if we were not expecting after 6 months of trying. So, on Monday, we're off to see a specialist for a consultation.
The truth is I'm not at all looking forward to it. It needs to be done. At least to give us the chance to have some answers about what's going on with us. Even though I know a couple of people who've had minor issues in need of correction, I've known far more who have serious, irreparable, long term or permanent infertility. Though we don't have any answers because we haven't even had the first test run yet, I feel like I'm already grieving the loss of ever having children with Matt. I must confess, I've always jumped too far ahead in my thinking. So with Matt's help, I'm trying to back up and take this step by step.
If you think of us in this, please pray God will help us as we make decisions in this process. I'd just as soon avoid this altogether.
