You know your husband better then anyoone else on this earth,
and I think you did the right thing by taking your husband with
you to hear from your medical doctor what a high risk pregnancy would be for you .
We lost a baby in our 3rd year of marriage ; somehow I knew I
would never get pregnant again , though not for lack of trying !
My DH and I tried to adopt three times , and in the end I am sorry
to say that 2 of the 3 women had abortions , and the 3rd kept
her special needs child -born with a cleft palate, she couldn't even
nurse !
The years passed by and we grew older , too old in my opinion to
adopt . At age 35 I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer , and all
thoughts of adopting fled ! I needed to get well. They gave me
tainted blood during my surgery and I ended up with Hepatitus C.
I then needed to take six months of shots/treatment ; which was considered "experimental" back then . They had just given it a name !But Praise Be I have been in remission for 11 years !
I am an adoptee , and very pro-adoption . I had wonderful parents who never thought of me as anyone but their own . I
hope you will take Sarah's advice and start leaving pamphlets
around ; you have so much love to share . And pray that your DH
will have a change of heart . Nothing is impossible for those who love the Lord .He is at the head of our marriage , and we will be
married 23 years next month ! God Bless you. I will pray for you and that the Lord will open your DH's heart ! PEACE-judy
