What do you do when you feel like giving up?

Question

AF came today.  37 years old.  TTC for 3 yrs.  What can I do?  I cannot afford in vitro and all that stuff.  Not sure about my husbands sperm count.  I just wanted to be one of those couples that had unwavering faith and it happened.  I guess if I'm typing this I am wavering.  Ladies, please help me.  I feel like I'm going to fall apart.

Answer

It's okay to be wavering. You are only human. Although I'm not as old as you, I've been trying for 2 years and it's getting very frustrating. I'm constantly wanting to give up.  The only advice I can give is keep praying and getting closer to God. He wants us to know him and in doing so he will give you peace. I ask for peace about having a baby every single day. I ask him to show me and lead me to what is supposed to happen for us. Don't give up. Have faith that God will lead you in the right direction. He is the creator of all. If it's supposed to happen, it will. If not, then we have to trust that God will lead us to where we are supposed to be. And trust me, I too need this reminder because it's hard. But it's part of being human. I know how you feel, I see so many announcements of pregnancies and wonder when or if it will ever be my turn. We can't change what God has for us, we can only pray for him to change us and give us peace on the matter. He puts inside of us our heart's desires so if we really want to be mothers, sometimes that's him giving us that want because he will fulfill it someday.
