    God is an infertility specialist❤ all through the Bible God rejoices in giving babies to infertile woman:) He is the the giver of life and he will show you guys his power so y’all know him as your miracle worker not just a good father. My husband and I are also going through the same process of infertility and it’s been 3 years so far but I now understand I’ve got nothing to worry… if it’s his will for my life, he will give me babies and I just trust that he will💕 we got this!! I’ll keep you guys in my prayers. 🤗

    It’s beautiful that they’re approaching this as a team and they will be blessed for it but she is not infertile, it’s azoospermia.

    I also had infertility issues, I thanked God once I got pregnant. I, however, did my research and went to a bunch of specialists for my infertility issues if you do not make a move to find out what is wrong, you can wait on God all you want it's on you to get yourself checked!

    Life throws us many curve balls. At the very beginning of COVID my 27 year old son was diagnosed with testicular cancer. Surgery and chemotherapy have left him infertile. Through the support of family, friends and his amazing fiancé, he has become thankful for the many gifts he has. I went to church almost every day for a year and God has answered my prayers and eradicated the disease from his body. He is now 30 and getting married this summer. His future may not be exactly what he expected but it will be a future and I trust in God to look after him. God will look after you both as well. Thank you for sharing your story. I will pray for you both.

    My husband and I had/has male factor infertility. My husband has several issues. We did a round of IVF after 4 years of trying and it was a failed attempt. We decided to turn to to foster to adopt. 9 months later we had a 2 day old baby boy placed with us. 2 and half years later we adopted him, our miracle child. Good luck, remember that there is always other options and adoption is an amazing option.

    Have been watching your channel on your goldendoodle breeding and saw the link for this channel. We have a medium size goldendoodle. Sorry, to hear that you both are struggling with infertility. My husband and I tried for four years to conceive. We ended up going to an infertility specialist and getting pregnant with quadruplets. Our quads are turning 19 this year. I felt the same way you did and was angry at God for a period of time, but God always knows best and will be by your side. Prayers to you both on your journey! 🙏 🐕

    I had a very similar situation to you guys. My husband had a car wreck at 18 and landed on his testicles at 120mph when he was launched from the car. That caused him to also have male infertility. We started trying at 29 to have a baby. Five years went by and we decided to get tested at the doctors and found that his count was very very low. We started a foster care application over the next few years and researched the process of adoption. When the paperwork was all done I felt like I had the flu. I didn't turn it in yet because I was so tired which was a good thing because I was pregnant finally after 8 years. My pregnancy was easy and my son was very healthy. I was being impatient thinking things had to be on my timetable and I just had to wait until it was time. I do want another one but we might just adopt since there are so many kids in the foster system.

    I just stumbled upon this video and I feel that God led me to your video. My husband and I are going through a similar situation. WE have been trying for almost two years, unable to conceive and I have been asking myself similar questions. What struck me the most, was you knew in your deepest being, that infertility was part of Gods story for you. I have never heard anyone say this in other infertility journeys I've heard but I too, have felt since I was probably a teen that I would somehow struggle to conceive as well. I didn't want to believe it at the time, but years later when I got married and my husband and I started trying for a baby, I realized that in fact, that feeling had come to fruition in real time. I don't know WHY God chose to have this be apart of yours or my story, but the only thing I can conclude is that God chose us to go this struggle because 1) He deemed us strong enough to go through this battle. It is a very, very hard thing to go through infertility but God knew you had the strength to endure. and 2) He saw us fit to tell our story so that we can help or encourage other girls in the same boat. There IS hope. So that when God finally does bless you guys with a baby, you can turn around to that girl struggling, that with God it IS possible. ❤

I have done 4 transfers using donor eggs because I have a low AMH and because I’m 44 and they all have failed. So I will be doing my 5th transfer in may so hopefully it will work this time. So good luck with everything hope it works out for you.

    We have struggled with male factor infertility, I’m sorry y’all are struggling with it as well. Have hope, there are options, we’ve tried all of them. We ended up getting pregnant naturally with our first after my husband started taking clomid (it helps sperm production in men). The semen analysis still said his sperm count was very low and the doctor said the odds of use getting pregnant on our own was like less than a 1% chance and it did happen. The second time around we struggled, we knew we would have issues again. My husband tried clomid again, his count looked a bit better but still low, then we tried iui. Medicated and non, nothing. 9 tries with that, nothing. So we looked into invocell, tried that and nothing fertilized on its own. We did a round of I’ve and had ELEVEN embryos. Got pregnant the first transfer. So there are options, and they seem overwhelming and they are hard, but keep the hope. It will happen however it is supposed to.

    I am not saying it ill not always be a struggle. Even cropping up in your mind unbidden. But there is a huge world and billions of different things that you could be doing WHILE STILL HAVING THE JOY OF RAISING CHILDREN! Praise God for the fertility you do have which I know you do but don't forget to live. Don't forget that is one aspect of life. I'm not saying give up, or don't try. But protect your mind and spirit. Don't let it destory you. Go see water flowing backwards, or the lava tubes in Hawaii, or maybe even these caves with their own ecosytems. Not trying to preach
