6. Dear God, Why Can’t I Have A Baby
gosh, why can’t I have a baby? provides women and “couples-in-waiting” tools, direction, guidance, hope, and encouragement to not lose faith in God, or in others, as they strive to share their love with a child.
Infertility statistics are staggering: nearly 6.1 million women and 2.1 million married couples in the United States will experience difficulty having a child.
Bystanders, and sadly even churches, often treat these “empty-armed” couples with indifference, platitudes, criticism, or minimize the pain of miscarriages and stillborn babies. couples struggling with infertility say they often feel alone and marginalized in their own churches and families.
This book seeks to ease readers’ pain and accompany them on their infertility journey by offering them: companionship, a place to cry, a way to journal and keep records, and most importantly, strengthening their faith in god”.
