So here I am again trying to get answers except this time I'm willing to be vulnerable and tell my whole story. I posted about a week ago or so about struggling with giving it all to God. The issue at hand is my hubby and I's dream to have a baby together.
We have 4 beautiful girls. 1 from my first marriage and 3 from his first marriage. Please no judgment here. He had a vasectomy a little over 5 years ago after his last daughter was born. He just had a reversal surgery in march. The Dr told us that he had many factors in his favor and a 90% chance of it being successful.
We have brought his sperm sample in 3 months in a row and all 3 times have been negative. It just crushes my heart every month I hear that it's a no go. At 6 months if there is no sperm present the surgery is considered a failure. The Dr started him on a med that is supposed to help with sperm production after our negative result at month 2.
I never thought we could be the 10% & I know there is still hope but at the same time I feel hopeless. We are supposed to bring in another sample in August and if there are no sperm then we will have to look into other options.
I'm very scared that God's plans aren't our plans and struggle greatly with giving this over to God. I've never had issues with trusting God this bad before. It hurts so bad that when I do talk to God about it I almost always end up in tears. I know it's in God's hands so how do I willingly let this go where it belongs?
It doesn't help that the Dr and his office haven't been very helpful with anything...can't give us any expectations and when I researched more info on the surgery I learned that the way he did his surgery was kind of half butted on his part and this angers me. I just want answers, I'm sick of getting the run around. I even spoke with the Dr on the phone last week and after hearing his answers to my questions I am not impressed. This makes me worry even more. This Dr literally told me he was concerned about saving us money and I told him that money means nothing in the big picture of our dream.
I even emailed another Dr who is a world known specialist in this area of expertise and he sympathesized and even gave us some free advice. So do I just keep talking to God and strengthening my relationship with him and just keep praying that I'm able to give it over? Maybe God is just waiting for me to give him my trust in this. Please be sensitive with your replies as I have just layed out a very delicate portion of my heart for you to read. Thanks!
