Hello everyone!
Is anyone else out there who has never had a child and will be 43? My birthday is Saturday and I will be so thankful to see another one, but it is always a reminder that my eggs are also getting older! We're still trying to decide what to do next. We have already been through one IVF cycle and are considering going "broke" and going through yet another one with a different doc in Las Vegas! But, as we all know, we would like to have a little money if we ever have a child, in addition to some other things that we need like at least, one newer car! We have been taking a break to concentrate on prayer and to think and strategize. I am also thinking that maybe God is not ready for me to become pregnant yet, so I am still unsure of what to do??? However, at my age I feel a tremendous pressure to hurry up and decide something, but I know that whatever method I use, it is still up to God's plan! So, I guess I am just trying to decide on something that I have no control over!! As you ladies know, it is so frustrating and very discouraging and definitely lonely days. Although, I feel bad being discouraged because I have such an "awesome" husband, parents and brothers"!!! So, I am just trying hard to keep my spirits up, because God has already blessed me so very much!!! But I know that you ladies would understand and my heart is always touched and in prayer for you all!
Thank you for letting me vent:)

first of all i wish you a happy birthday!
i am 41 will become 42 in january married for 16 years never been pregnant,it is hard to look at the biological clock everyday and count every second,but as you said God has a plan,and i believe that he will look upon us and bless us in a way that we will have a miracle to glorify his name,he can just order our bodies and make it work properly or he can use the hands and knowledge of the doctors it doesn't matter which way is going to be,i know that someday we will have a family.i wish you all the best!
Good luck to you in whatever it is you decide to do. Don't ever give up.
If a child is what you want, don't give up....just find a way.
