three down...and virginia to go

Sharing attempt #3
Well it's been a while since I added any more thoughts on our baby journey.
Since the last time, I think we have tried the weird procedure two more times with no luck.
Definitely disappointing, confusing and just plain sucky! We are both trying to remember that God does have a plan for our family in the midst of this, but still it is a challenging emotional journey.
After our 3rd attempt at the IUI we went and talked with our doctor who recommended we continue trying and add some more drugs to help out. Unfortunately the next time I had a cyst which meant we had to skip a month. So we held off and made some big life decisions that also changed the game as far as doctors and fertility treatments go.

We decided to move to Virginia so Josh can become an associate pastor of a church there. With all that, adoption might be the direction we are headed for now, since our fertility doctors will not be as convenient. We went to a 1-day adoption conference a couple weeks ago that was very encouraging and provide a lot of great ideas and resources. Anyway, that's the story as of now.

By God's grace we continue on this road and continue to hope for baby brown.
