Infertility and the Unknown

Here's the thing. I have not been to the doctor to be checked out as to what is causing mine and my husbands problems with conception. I am terrified! I keep telling myself that I this is going to be the month, that I am finally ready, that I am finally going to call and get the help we need. But, in the end I keep backing out. I am terrified of making the appointment! I am afraid of what the doctor will find and even more afraid that the doctor won't find anything at all!

You see, there is this thing called unexplained infertility. I'm not saying I have it or that I will have it, but the fact that it is a possibility scares the crap out of me. When you are diagnosed with unexplained infertility it is because they can't find anything that's wrong with you or your spouse. There is no medical reason that you can't get pregnant. They can try to help you but nothing is guaranteed because they don't know what will help.

I know the likelihood of this being the case is slim to none, but it still scares me so bad! So... here I sit fearing the unknown and refusing the make an appointment to find it out.
