When Mark and I decided to go public about our fertility struggles two years ago (that means we kept it to ourselves for 11years) our hope was to help other couples not feel alone in this journey.
I was scared of what people would think of me when we revealed our "secret" but it was time to let God use our story for His purpose. We had been married for over 11 years people were wondering if we would ever have kids. When we were asked "don't you want kids?" We would politely tell them our situation. At this point we had never shared our story in a large group setting.
Today we are open about every decision we have made since going public. I even started this blog:) we have helped so many couples. We have prayed with, encouraged and just listened to their stories.
In the last two years we have been through 3 IUI's, 2 IVF's and meeting a birth mom about adopting her twins, to which all were unsuccessful. Mark and I have been through a lot and can share our experiences better now than when we first went public.
Mark and I have taken the last few months to heal and pray about our future plans. We have not decided on our next steps. We are taking some more time to decide what's best for us! Continue to keep us in your prayers.
