My husband and I have been married for almost three years. We have a fantastic marriage and are perfect together. I have always wanted a baby (even before I got married) and love children. My husband is great with kids, especially our 3-year-old nephew whom we absolutely adore, but wasn't ready to have children. About six months ago, we discussed it and realized that we didn't want to be too old before we have children (he is 27, I am 25).

We have now been trying for three months, but nothing yet. I know that I am stressing about it, and that it is not helping, but it is so difficult to just sit back and wait. I am one of those people who draws up a list of pros and cons, does a bit of research and then goes for it when it comes to anything like buying a car or house. And now I can't understand why I am not pregnant yet! It is really difficult to let go and place it in the Lord's hands and have faith. I think that too often we feel the need to be in charge of our own lives and don't quite comprehend what a blessing a baby is.

I have an appointment with the OB/GYN today to see if there is anything that I need to do, and in my heart of hearts, I pray that I soon have good news. I keep planning in my head how I am going to tell everyone the good news!

Thanks to this site, I don't feel alone. It is comforting to read that there are other people who have the same fears and worries as me. Makes me feel normal. Good luck to all those out there trying for a baby. May the Lord bless us all.
