Casting Anxiety

"Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you." 1 Peter 5:6-7 

So, after 3 unsuccessful treatments of Clomid, we are on our way back to the Fertility Clinic.  Apparently, I had a "negative response" to the drug meaning my results each month worsened. Due to my low AMH level (aka- low egg count), the doctor wants to find a more aggressive alternative. 

I am excited and nervous about going back to the Fertility Clinic. Why? I don't really know why. I think it's the "more aggressive alternatives" that have intimidated me. I am unsure of the effect that they'll have and how "aggressive" we'll have to be with treatment. I am excited because this alternative could be what finally gets us pregnant! 

I am trying so hard to follow Gods word and casting my anxieties on him; however, its such a challenge to me sometimes not to just break down in tears of anxiety. I am a BALL OF ANXIETY...it's who I am.  I know that at the proper time, God will bless us with a child (or 2 or 3 knowing the % of increase chances with these aggressive alternatives! ;))

We shall wait one more week before our visit at the Fertility Clinic. Hopefully, they'll break open their jar of "magic" in combination with God's blessing and get us pregnant.  In the mean time, I ask that you PRAY! Please, PRAY, PRAY, PRAY. 

I am confident in the work that God does and the miracles that he allows these fertility doctors to make. I lift my heart to you, God. I am yours!
