I am so so so sorry to hear that thi...Oh wow Emily! I am so so so sorry to hear that this is y'all's challenge. What a roller coaster of feelings, huh? You have a fabulous attitude and seem to be trying EVERYTHING that you can. And I know that is all Heavenly Father expects from you. But sometimes that doesn't help the pain to go away. I'm not gonna tell you to hang in there because I know your strong-willed self will totally do just that. <br /><br />During our infertility, I happened to see an article on the online Ensign for April that read "Faith and Infertility." My heart was pricked a few times throughout the article. Especially from one experience a woman had...<br /><br />She recalls a Sunday School lesson in which a bishopric member shared an important message about faith—one she’s clung to ever since. He said, “When someone has an ailment or an illness and they are healed as the result of a blessing, their faith is being strengthened. But for those who aren’t healed but continue faithful, their faith is being perfected. The first is a faith-promoting experience. The second is faith-perfecting.”<br /><br />This girl's experience is a hope that carried with me for a long time through the different stages of infertility. <br />Ps. I just blogged a novel on our story, haha. Good luck hun!Janenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17094377621531347207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1128881379657559117.post-85167359198277400392011-07-18T10:58:44.759-07:002011-07-18T10:58:44.759-07:00I have been thinking about you lately and wonderin...I have been thinking about you lately and wondering how things were going, thanks for sharing your story Emily! I know it's not easy but you have such a great attitude and I know you guys will receive answers to your prayers!

(I think I know which test you are referring to on a certain day of month..I've been there!) Now we have answers, that aren't particularly great (but at least not hopeless) and are doing our best to deal with the information & decide what to do next. <br /><br />I think you're so brave! Hang in their pretty girl! You will be a beautiful, wonderful, amazing mother...and I know it WILL happen for you. Your faith and positive attitude are admirable & I am hoping it happens sooner rather than later for you guys!Chris and Mari Spikerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13435313631107396009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1128881379657559117.post-30200711474403446202011-07-17T12:43:55.217-07:002011-07-17T12:43:55.217-07:00oh Em! girl i feel ya... we've been trying now...oh Em! girl i feel ya... we've been trying now for 2 years! I also never felt like I was gonna be "that" girl in my friends group who is having a difficult time getting preggers. I go through times where I am SO happy for those of my friends that are pregnant and other times where I just hate them because they are on their 3rd child while I can even make one! <br />I am in total agreement with you about Heavenly Father putting these incredible doctors here in our paths to help and guide us through this emotional process. What a trying experience it is! <br />I really really hope that this works for you!!! and If it does, please let me know. I think this might be our next step... good luck girl!!!!! :)Breahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07173055276247405658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1128881379657559117.post-27554348987487942442011-07-17T12:16:12.378-07:002011-07-17T12:16:12.378-07:00I know exactly how you feel and how crazy of a pro...I know exactly how you feel and how crazy of a process fertility treatment is. We are so lucky to have the gospel in our lives without that this all would be so much harder. The antibiotics for you both are to prevent you or levi from getting an infection with all the different testing and things going in your body. Call me if you ever have any questions or need someone to talk to. Love you girl and without a doubt I know Heavenly Father has a plan for you and knows much more than we do!Robert and Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17835234813999210120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1128881379657559117.post-8078733194109402632011-07-17T11:12:21.452-07:002011-07-17T11:12:21.452-07:00Love your positive attitude.
