The Results are In

Well, the doctor called... the results from Heath's analysis are in. He is mostly good. Dr. Pete says motility (the number moving forward in a straight line, towards the egg)is about 45.5% where they like to see it at 50%. We are thankful, though, that the margin is very minimal and Dr. Pete thinks that should be no reason, we haven't been able to conceive yet. Praise the Lord for answered prayers and peace in the waiting.

It's amazing to me how our bodies will react to our hearts desire. I mean this... I had been having what I thought were pregnancy symptoms for a couple of weeks. We of course, thought those to be pretty good indications that maybe, just maybe, we might be pregnant. I put off taking the test for a good week and a half, because I didn't know if I could bear the big fat negative again. Eventually, though, for peace of mind, I take the test. No more waiting, no more wondering, no more hoping against all hope. Now we know... I am not pregnant and the symptoms are likely side effects of the metformin that I am taking. What gets me is that fairly shortly after I take the test, within a couple days, the symptoms start to subside. That's when I know my body is beginning to play tricks on me. My body is trying to create this hope that is then shattered with a litle stick that reads "NOT PREGNANT". Well, I share this, to say this... We are not losing hope, our hope is in the Lord! Not in our bodies, not in anything we say or do or anything others say or do. We only trust in Him and His perfect timing!
