Answers and Questions

So Monday we saw our OB for a follow up visit on the clomid cycles. Tim also had a repeat SA. Before going to this visit (which was routine) I felt an overwhelming sense of anxiousness. I don't know why but for some reason I felt like this would be some sort of turning point for us....and it was. Not exactly the way I had hoped but a turning point nonetheless. The Dr said he did not think he could do anymore for us. Now deep down I knew there would be a time when he would tell us this but I had always hoped I would get pregnant and it wouldn't be necessary. But alas the time has come for us to move on. The Dr began telling us all of the options a specialist could give us that he couldn't but honestly all I heard was the teacher in Charlie Brown...wahwahwah. Then came blow number 2-after months of supplements costing over $100- Tim's SA was exactly the same as before....abnormal. So that's awesome. Honestly I spent the rest of Monday and most of Tuesday in a fog. After many discussions we have decided to wait until after the holidays to see the specialist. This will give me more time to focus on this low amylose diet I started and hopefully loose some weight. Also I don't desire going through the holidays depressed and if we don't know what the specialist is going to say then there is still hope! I know that realistically we could have so many options. I just don't know how far I am willing to take the medical intervention. So the next three months will be a time of prayer. Hopefully in this time GOD will reveal to us where He wants us to go from here. I will continue to blog as I need to.

I read a verse yesterday that I am going to claim as my new motto!

"Don't worry about anything instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all He has done. Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6-7

What an amazing truth.
