A Child's Prayer Request

I am anxiously awaiting my doctor's appointment tomorrow morning with my Infertility Speicialist. For those of you who do not already know this, we have been seeing an infertility specialist since last August. It still puzzles me how we have gotten to this point, especially since we became pregnant with Landyn the very first month that we started trying. Anyways, I have been on Clomid (1st step in fertility meds) since August. Every month I have to go in for an ultrasound on the 21st day of my cycle and to give blood to check my progesterone levels. By doing the ultrasound, the doctor can actually see how many eggs I have ovulated with each cycle. Since we have doubled my dosage of Clomid, I have had one month with only 1 egg and one month with 2 eggs! Which means a possibility of twins!

Well, with this in mind, Landyn and I pray every night for God to give us a "Baby Brother or a Baby Sister." A couple of weeks ago, Landyn starting praying on her own, "Dear God, please give me a Baby Brother AND a Baby Sister..........two of them!" I thought that was so funny! Then yesterday, she was watching Dora (which she loves almost as much as she loves Diego) and Dora's mom had a Baby Brother and a Baby Sister. She watched this while I was at work, and made a point to tell me about Dora's Baby Brother AND Baby Sister when I got off work.

So tomorrow morning I go to the doctor to find out first IF I ovulated and then to find out HOW MANY eggs there are in there. Then we wait to see if any take. Keep us in your prayers. We would love to have an addition to the Johnson family.
