When it comes to infertility, if you ever get to a point where either you or your spouse are uncomfortable with a treatment option, make sure that you discus it. It is vital to have open communication at this point because this concern may be a misunderstanding, or it may be a genuine concern.
For example, when Robert and I started infertility treatments, he was absolutely against me ever taking clomid. This was because (to make a long story short) he had a very dear friend who ended up getting pregnant with triplets and had an extremely difficult and life threatening labor. Robert was afraid that this may happen to me. Well he told the doctor of this concern and through education Robert about how rare his friend’s case was, Robert felt more comfortable about us going forward with the treatment.
I was very appreciative of his concern for me but at the same time that concern could have prevented us from moving forward. Knowledge in this case allowed us to get pass that uncertainty.
On the flip side of that, when facing infertility treatments, you have to listen to spirit too. There may be a treatment that is suggested and you may just get an uneasy feeling about it. Don’t ignore these feelings because they are there to help guild and protect. If you are ever not sure about a certain treatment, don’t hesitate to take the matter to the lord. Pray and fast about it and you will know whether or not as a couple you should move forward.
