Book: For Want of a Child
A small nice book written in the 1990s about the struggles of a couple in their experience with infertility. The story ended with an adoption.
Although adoption is charitable, it is not the objective of this web site.
We will succeed, we will overcome infertility, because we are methodical, scientific, and say our prayers.
The emotional roller coaster experienced by the couple from each one’s point of view may sound familiar to you and me.

Those if only statements:
“If only I didn’t use the pill.”
“If only I wasn’t so heavy.”
“If only I didn’t have premarital sex.”
“If only I hadn’t waited so long to start trying.”
“If only I didn’t have the abortion.”
Well I say never give up. You are not yet pregnant because there is something you have missed. And when you find out what that is, you can make the adjustments. And finally, you will be pregnant, make it stick to term, and give birth to a beautiful baby that just looks like you!
