Infertility update!!

I just wanted to take a minute and tell everyone THANKS SO MUCH for your prayers on our behalf. No. . . I am not yet pregnant, but I have felt completely HAPPY lately!! This is what I had asked family members and friends to pray for (my happiness) and it has made such a difference. I can testify that even though our Heavenly Father does not answer every prayer exactly when and how we want him to I know that he NEVER denies us comfort. He loves us and does whatever he can to get us through our trials in this life.


I still hope and pray that I will get pregnant again, but at this point in my life I have to turn everything over to my Heavenly Father and put my complete trust in him that things will happen when the time is right. As with every trial, I am sure there will come some more downs so I would ask that you would continue to keep our happiness in your prayers.


One more thing. . . I am going back to school. I have the one human anatomy class I am taking this semester and then I can apply for the MCC nursing program (just a semester behind Satya which is great because she has been such a blessing in helping me through the order of things). I am so excited. This has been a major change that has helped me to feel happy.

I'm so glad that you are feeling so good! One of the best things that came from my infertility was learning to completely rely on the Lord.
I hope that you continue to find happiness and receive blessings of morning sickness and a growing belly very soon!!
HUGS!

Melissa, what a faithful and stong woman you are! I'm amazed at your faith through hard times, you are an example to me. You reminde me of Job, when the thing you want most is taken away, you are still able to praise God for all that you have. You're amazing, I'm excited for you to be in school! Don't work to hard!

I am happy for you. That is great. We all face our separate trials in life. Mine was being so sick when I was pregnant that it made it very risky to have another, so I am not. I have days where that is very hard to accept but I know it was the right choice for me. Being a woman is so hard! Our children are everything. Heavenly Father has a plan for all of us no matter how hard it is to understand. I believe we will understand it later. And yes, he does comfort us and that is such a blessing when times are tough. All the best girl! Way to go on pursuing nursing school. My husband graduated last May and he loves it. A great profession!

I have definitely noticed that you've been happier lately, and I'm so glad! You are the funnest person to be around. I hope your anatomy class and the rest of school goes well. I'm sure it will now that you have that enormous book of the human body! :). We are still praying for you and we love you!
