I understand how you feel as I feel the same way. If I just had a glimpse of what the future holds for us. We have been trying for about 9 years and in that time have had two miscarriages and a stillbirth. I wish I had magic words to help you but all I can say is I understand, know that you are not alone.Giggleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05903531837402873897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5778892077450359953.post-61385731358634713002009-11-03T21:26:39.576-05:002009-11-03T21:26:39.576-05:00Oh Lianna...I am praying so hard that your time is...Oh Lianna...I am praying so hard that your time is soon. I am asking the Lord to let it be now.<br /><br />I know exactly what you are talking about. Infertility made me feel SO inadequate. That was honestly one of the hardest parts! Feeling inadequate as a woman, as a wife, and as just a person in general.<br /><br />I am praying God shows you what HE sees in you...=)Kendrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13341163555258432231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5778892077450359953.post-89617801182760556372009-11-03T19:01:18.454-05:002009-11-03T19:01:18.454-05:00Lianna,

That's why I finally decided to de-lurk. This post spoke to my heart so deeply. Especially since now my marriage is being affected and my husband has chosen to put that first and strengthen it before getting back on the rollercoaster. Talk about scared! I turn 40 in February and now I'm feeling fear like never before -- fear of possibly never having that chance since I'm approaching "that age," and fear that my marriage is hurting. You see, when all of our friends were getting married and pregnant, we chose to put our marriage first and enjoy one another and build a solid foundation to raise a little one knowing the best give we could give our child is a mommy and daddy who love another solidly and puts God first in everything. Now, ironically, our marriage is suffering and baby is put on hold. And it's such a critical time for me age-wise, I'm simply terrified. Everything took a turn when we lost our first pregnancy last summer, and it seems like I've been crying for 14 months straight. If not for our baby, our marriage. Trusting in God's plan for you and I, Lianna!<br /><br />Much Christian Love from Louisville, KY.Lisanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5778892077450359953.post-59869215307121695312009-11-03T14:20:06.777-05:002009-11-03T14:20:06.777-05:00I got pregnant 3 times as my brother and sister in...I got pregnant 3 times as my brother and sister in law struggled with infertility. I tried to wait as long as I could to tell everyone I was pregnant to try to ease the pain I knew it would cause them. Every Sunday in church I would pray for them to be blessed with a child and it did eventually happen. I know how hard it is and I know how much you want it to happen and I will be praying for you too! I know that it will happen...I just know it! Let go and Let God! He will answer your prayers!Darla DiStefanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01343459647570191656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5778892077450359953.post-64150200026000155952009-11-02T23:28:29.769-05:002009-11-02T23:28:29.769-05:00I hear your frustration and wish there was somethi...I hear your frustration and wish there was something I could do for it to be gone.

Hopeless, frustrated and angry. I was so mad at God for giving everyone else around me the one thing I wanted...and so easily. It hurt to see my friends try once and bam...pregnant :(<br /><br />My husband and I decided to put off TTC until December or January..we needed the break. I was at the point where I just felt like it was NEVER going to happen. The first month we stopped trying, I noticed some weird spotting...and 5 days later, I got my two lines. Talk about hysterical crying.<br /><br />My point is....you NEVER know when God is going to surprise you. You may be closer than you think. <br /><br />During one of my darkest moments, I came across a Psalm that spoke volumes to me. "Many are the afflictions of the righteous; But the Lord delivers him out of them all" - Psalm 34:19 He delivers us out of ALL of our trials. Every day...you are getting closer to the end of this trial :) God promises it so it MUST be true :)<br /><br />Praying for you sister.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07204415329892149964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5778892077450359953.post-33046096902991528592009-11-02T21:16:08.575-05:002009-11-02T21:16:08.575-05:00I am praying so hard for you.

They just don't get it - I TRULY AM over-joyed for them, but SO sad for myself! <br /><br />I don't comment often, but I read every post. I pray for ya'll and the babies that God has picked out to complete your family. I was blessed with a friend about 2 years ago that has struggled with fertility for 7 years (at the time). Her and her husband are now awaiting the arrival of twins in February. <br /><br />I just want to provide some encouragement. You are NOT alone, even though it feels like it so much at times. Also, as you know, God is able, He is faithful, and His time is perfect! Much love and prayers are going out for you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5778892077450359953.post-86167854197108070242009-11-02T21:01:12.524-05:002009-11-02T21:01:12.524-05:00I really hope and pray that you are blessed with a...I really hope and pray that you are blessed with a child of your own one day!

It sounds horrible but I always feel that it is everyone else but us. Yes, I am happy for them, it just brings to light what we don't have, and what we want so much. I hope so much that you will get your blessing very soon.Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14933184161110219735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5778892077450359953.post-53404329104538242282009-11-02T20:50:51.095-05:002009-11-02T20:50:51.095-05:00i can completely understand.

I'm super happy for them too, but at the same time completely sad/devistated/hurt because it hasn't happened for me yet. It is hard keeping the faith...I know God will bless us when he's ready too, but it's still super hard.
