Things beyond our knowledge
My dh and I have received, over the last 1 month 3 happy phone calls/ news from friends as such:
Couple #1 - told they would never conceive, both male and female factors, even IVF would be impossible. Had child #1 without ART after 9 years of marriage. Recently found out that they are pregnant with #2.
Couple #2 - female with Turner's Syndrome. IVF #1 = 1 healthy baby boy...miracle...2 years ago. Just found out they are pregnant (naturally) with #2.
Couple #3 - male factor, female factor and advanced maternal age. Tried IVF x 1, IUI x 3. On IVF #2, no eggs. Female ovulated on her own, IUI x 1 = pregnant!
It makes me think...we know a lot, but there are still things that can happen that are beyond our knowledge, only God knows!
