My heart and prayers go out to you. I have been there and sometimes it just plain stinks! When we rounded our 8th anniversary I pretty much thought that it would be just Kent and I forever. Hang in there and know that sometimes trials are there just because and blessings come when least expected. And remember that you are absolutley entitled so sob here and there. Sometimes you just need it. Someone told me once that crying actually releases toxins from your body. Whenever I cry I tell myself that I am doing my body good by ridding myself of toxic watse:)<br /><br />Thanks for sharing your temple experience. I have truly felt the Lord strengthening me and I know he will you too. Revelation is sure a great thing. I love that scripture written so long ago can be so impactful and specific to our circumstances now. You're awesome! And congratulations on the house!alfburg03https://www.blogger.com/profile/12497696970118451219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31229146.post-84761782384292141372012-02-15T11:24:02.438-07:002012-02-15T11:24:02.438-07:00Awesome story.

We have all had very good experiences and were able to get pregnant fairly quickly once we were put on metformin. I would talk to your doc to see if that is a concern for you as well. It is much more common than most people even know. I am so glad that you were able to have such an awesome experience at the temple! I completely believe that we were put on the earth at this time where there are things to help us achieve our goals! I wish you both all the best!! thoughts and prayers going your way!!!Keith, Heather and Carsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06235794076871057126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31229146.post-27275001853399402822012-02-13T07:11:52.890-07:002012-02-13T07:11:52.890-07:00Sounds awesomee! <3Sounds awesomee! <3Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02879321253044268037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31229146.post-14239794861855533262012-02-12T12:10:42.629-07:002012-02-12T12:10:42.629-07:00All the best girl..

I did the Clomid and did not have the terrible side affects...just the good one...Zack! I had to take it again to get the twins, but only once. Perhaps your body make up is close to mine and your experience will be similar. <br /><br />I wondered why I had to wait...hind sight is that my boys needed to come at a certain time to be in the lives they were suppose to be in. It's hard to see that from your chair...but if it was meant to be...it will happen!<br /><br />Love you!Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02683558825776046741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31229146.post-81447992892516265432012-02-08T11:56:22.388-07:002012-02-08T11:56:22.388-07:00What a sweet experience!

It included 2 surgeries, medication, and a lot of tears and heartache. Infertility can be a rough road but the outcome will be the biggest blessing of your life. If you ever need someone to talk to, I am here :)Manda Jane Clawsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10450660880136248190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31229146.post-9304266781336114082012-02-08T10:44:37.217-07:002012-02-08T10:44:37.217-07:00What an awesome experience! Thank you so much for...What an awesome experience! Thank you so much for sharing it. I have such a testimony of Heavenly Father's ability to send our children into our families at the right time. <br />My family has a history of infertility and I always knew I would have a hard time getting pregnant. After I got married I was diagnosed with PCOS and immediately went on metformin and clomid. I was horrified of the side effects! My sister got really grumpy and my mom always told me awful stories about infertility drugs as well. I felt pretty normal. My husband told me I was a little more irritable than normal, but it wasn't too bad for me. I got pregnant the very first month with clomid, then miscarried 11 weeks later. I had to wait a little while to try again but got pregnant with my little Brett after only 4 months! Its not the most pleasant medicine, but totally worth it! I also read a book called Taking Charge of your Fertility by Toni Weschler, I loved it and felt like it was half the battle because it taught me what to look for in my own body.<br />Best of luck to you!!!Sean and Jenniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14185771688794750692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31229146.post-87819321056890684292012-02-08T10:25:34.204-07:002012-02-08T10:25:34.204-07:00Jess,
