How to get along with your husband while TTC

Making a baby should be fun. You’re in love, you want to grow your family, you get to have sex. Unfortunately this scenario can turn into the opposite pretty quickly.

From Pain to Purpose

Why am I not pregnant? Why is God doing this to me? Why is my body revolting against the one thing I’ve dreamed of most? Those “why” questions are brutal on our hearts, aren’t they? If we let them, they will stir up an emotional windstorm, driving frustration, fear, and anger deeper into the broken …

Nurturing a spirit of grace in the midst of infertility

I was bitter. I first realized it when the nurse called me back, saying, “You’re here to see the doctor about your infertility, right?” My heart sank, and I snapped back at her, “I’m not infertile, we’re just having a hard time getting pregnant.” I recognized the bitterness immediately. I was keenly aware that deep …

Infertility, five years later

It was only a photograph. Our church had long ago decided to create a pictorial directory, updated every five years, to keep track of the growing families in our community.

Verses for infertility – I’m infertile, but whole in Jesus

Ann’s story of hope and healing: I am infertile. Just wanted to get that out of the way. It’s true. Two and a half years and 9,000 tests and procedures later, we know. We’ve known since December 23, 2010 actually, but it takes a while to process something like that and really accept it. I’ve …

The broken dreams of infertility

Finding the heart of God through broken dreams

Even before I was married the doctors were telling me that babies would be difficult to have, at best, and I was wiping tears and crying out to God that I didn’t want to travel this road. I had been mothering everything around me since I was a child myself. Being a mom was in my blood.  …
