I don't exactly remember the precise time I learned about sex, or who fully explained it to me - I remember bits and pieces; stories from my older siblings, a class in grade school, a few books my Mom got out from the library - but I never remember any REAL discussion. I DO remember the lesson though: sex = babies. It all seemed so simple then...IF you have sex and don't use protection, you WILL get pregnant (as well as all of the possible STDs of course).

So what happened?? I mean, now I'm married and we WANT children, so why is it so difficult? I'm not a superstitious person, so I don't believe me talking about it is a bad thing - these are my feelings. I've been poked and prodded (as has my husband) and apparently we fall into this category called "unexplained infertility" - well, isn't that special? I mean, I guess it could be worse - no, I KNOW it could be worse, we could be told there is no chance at all. Luckily, we have an appointment with a specialist in a few weeks and hopefully she can shed some light on this situation. In the meantime, I just have to try and relax and enjoy the "trying" and trust in my Dad's favorite saying, "The Lord's timing is always perfect!"
