Still Childless

[SnowBall]

Hi sis, baka ma pressure si husband at sumama loob niya kaya i suggest ang sabihin mo "i wanna have a mini-you", at least nasabi mo sa kanya na gusto mong magkaanak dahil gusto mo ng mini him. Less pressure kasi maiisip niya na it's for him also.

I suggest see a specialist baka naman may iba pa kayong options diba..

Masarap talaga magkaanak, my children are my joys and I wouldn't trade them for anything.

I will include you in my prayers sis. Sana magkaanak na kayo through God's miracle. Amen

[imprincessfiona]

Amen to that sis. Still waiting for our biggest blessing/s after 1.5 yrs of getting married. Let's all claim it. It will definitely happen in God's perfect time. Baby dust to all of us!

^Same pala tayo sis HMisabelle na 1.5 years na naghihintay kaso I am 39 years old na kaya talagang puspusan ang dasal namin kay Padre Pio to give us our bundle of joy. In God's time ibibigay sa atin iyan, kapit lang.

[HMisabelle]

^nagpe-pray din kami kay Padre Pio, sis! hopefully soon ibigay na sa atin ang ating sagot sa ating dasal. God bless!

[HMisabelle]

^Nag-novena din kami kay St. Gianna (patron saint for mothers and unborn children). Tas patuloy kami sa pagpe-pray together kay St. Gerard (patron of expectant mothers). Every Sunday, sa Padre Pio kami nagsisimba. Hopefully, marinig na talaga dasal natin mga sis.

We're both 30, almost 5th year together and still childless. Bale 3 and a half yrs kaming ttc kasi early in marriage, nagwork pa ako abroad. Kaso since wala pa, plan kong mag abroad ulit kahit 1 year lang to replenish our financial resources. Medyo nabibigatan kami sa gastos at para maalis din ang stress. Ang worst part ng situation kasi ay yung mga side comments ng both sides of family and friends. Yung kesyo nagpatayo kami ng house pero wala pa kaming anak, kelan kaya kami mabibiyayaan, kung wala daw, baka puwedeng mambuntis na lang ng iba si mister etc. Feeling ko super insensitive ng mga nakapaligid sa akin. Hay, nakakadown.

[HMisabelle]

^hayaan mo sila, sis. Di kasi nila alam kung gaano kahirap pinagdadaanan natin. Wag ka mawalan ng pag-asa, sis.

[hermione28]

Bakit kame kinakabahan dito? Why do we feel like ngayon palang mahihirapan kame kahit we just got married 2 weeks ago?

We don't want a child YET, I mean, not as early as now. I'm 23, he's 25. We are controlling pa syempre, we want to enjoy each others company. Pero we're a bit nervous na baka pag gusto na namen, mahirapan na kame.

One more thing that bothered us, kasi we're bf/gf for 8 years. Sa dinami dami ng kakilala, friends and even relatives namen na nabuntis. We're so lucky na hindi kame nagkaganun. Tapos few years ago I found out that I have PCOS. 

Kaya ngayon, though ayaw pa namen magka baby. We're still worried. Actually parang ako lang, he's just cool with it and just insisting that bibigay yan ni God. ganun lang.

[HMisabelle]

^you can start na preparing, sis, para pag want nyo na, no worries na. visit your ob para sa pcos mo. pwede na din pa-SA si hubby kung papayag sya. sabi mo nga, chill lang kasi sya. or maintain a healthy lifestyle if ayaw nyo pa magpatingin. but anyway, ang babata nyo pa so wag ka masyado mag-worry.

[damonsgirl]

^Sis hermione I found out I had pcos in 2010. I got married in 2013. I was 25 yrs old. Ganyan din kami, we said di muna magbaby sa first year pero hindi kami gumamit ng protection or any form of birth control during the first year. Come our second anniv nung hindi pa din ako nabubuntis, nagpacheck na ako. Ayun nagstart na kami fertility treatments ng 2014. Wala pa din nangyayari. Until nag IUI nalang kami this year March. Dun palang ako napreggy. Now I'm 29 and going 25 weeks pregnant. I suggest patingin kayo both as early as now kasi baka mahirapan nga pag nagtagal. Lalo na if your husband has sperm problems like my husband.

[hermione28]

Thanks sa advice mga sis. Will try to talk to him na magpa check up kame. Pero I bet di yon papayag agad. hehe.

Fertility treatment? Paano yan sis? magastos ba yan? haha, yun agad tanong.

[damonsgirl]

Yes sis. Magastos ng bongga. Mag try muna kayo naturally ng 1 yr. Kung walang mabuo, tsaka kayo pacheck

[simang]

sis hermione, i have PCOS too, both ovaries. I took oral contraceptive lang for it, as advised by OB. No other medications, just the pill and my vitamins. I was on it religiously for a year and then I stopped the pills, after a few months nabuntis na ko without any effort You're still very young, tama si sis damonsgirl, try muna kayo naturally, and don't stress too much about it! Tama din ang mindset ng hubby mo, it will happen at the right time.

[hermione28]

Thank you for the support mga sis. Baka paranoid lang ako. 

[ivy u.]

^hello mga sis. hanggang ngayon waiting parin kami Kung ibibigay pa ba ni Lord ang hinihiling ko. medyo masakit lang ang loob ko yung pinsan ko kinasal Lang nung june ngayon buntis na samantalang ako 8 years ng naghihintay. sad.

[damonsgirl]

sis ivy u. ano na ba mga napagawa nyo na workup? natry nyo na ba mag iui? more than 3 yrs ako married tapos nabuntis ako sa iui. baka magwork sa inyo un.

[HMisabelle]

[ivy u.]

[damonsgirl]
