Dealing with Infertility

Hi

I have been married for 5 years to a great loving guy. The only thing that has put a strain on us is been unable to conceive.  It's good that we are able to talk about it and pray together.  Our sex is affected sometimes negatively because we are so tensed up thinking about conceiving. But God is above all these things and with prayer I am sure that our desire for children shall be fulfilled.  We have gone for all tests and they look good so I guess its a matter of just waiting.

A reader says ... I have known several women that have had a similar situation (one was even told she would not be able to conceive), so they gave up and adopted a child and almost immediately got pregnant. I am not encourag-ing you to adopt, but just to say that their stress was gone so they finally conceived. It is great that you are able to talk and pray together. Try to make your focus on enjoying sex without thinking of conceiving, so you will be able to relax. Yes, God is above all these things and He knows the desires of your hearts. My husband and I will pray for relief of stress and that you will be able to get pregnant.
