I think I am having my second child

it's not really a "shame on you" kind of deal. as you've said, kids are blessings, right? so, just be thankful that you will be having a new baby after a few months. think of it positively so things will turn out better for you and your family. 50 thousand pesos a month in the philippines is really quite good. try to cut out on some of your expenses for the sake of the baby. you know... make some few adjustments and sacrifices. good luck!

it may be. see a doctor and then may be you can come into any conclusion. congrats any way. it will be all ok if the child comes.you are thinking but may be you can try to earn more in many ways.

Hi Jaypee ! I am married for almost two years now buddy but God hasnt been given me a child yet, which I long so much, but its okay, I still have to wait, He has His purpose with mine. But to you my friend, God has blest you! As Steve Green puts it, children are a treasure from the Lord, the Bible did also affirmed it to be truly a blessing. Its very wonderful to think that God has given you this baby since he would be born and raised in a Christian home and God-fearing parents, isnt that great ? I wish many of us would raise a next generation of people like ourselves. On the financial aspect, if you seen God has fed you this far, Why can't He in the next years to come? Worst comes to worst, the Bible did say that he never saw righteous man hungry. (Proverbs 10:3) We look into the things that we think could cripple us, God is there, He is greater than us, praise Him for that, our God is good at all times ! Amen bro? Send my hugs and blessings to your wife. Your Unashamed buddy, torch

hello friend...i don't think you should get dissapointed for this...its a gift from god...i know about the financial conditions you are talking...but still want to tell you not to feel dissapointed and curse the child in any manner...try to work more harder than you usually do and everything will be fine...maybe the child will bring good luck to you and your family...and there is nothing to feel shamed about it...it's only your second child....don't worry everything will be fine...have faith in god...if he is going to bring a life in this world he must be having a way to feed him...thru you.

Yes children are gifts from God, so you must be thankful instead. They're the joy of our lives. Without them , life would be dull. You'll survive. Cheers.

Everyone has made excellent points and I have to say hearing your response makes me have a better outlook on the human race. It's great hearing someone speak of God the way you do.... In my own life I unexpectedly had another baby and wasn't financially prepared for, but through the grace of God we have made it so far. It's hard don't get me wrong I have a daughter that will turn 2 in October and I just had another daughter, she is 3mths old right now. She's the greatest gift God could have ever given me. I was so worried before she came, but the moment I laid eyes on her I was extremely thankful! She is by far the best baby I have ever seen. Paying for two babies in diapers and 2 daycares is very tough, but luckily some how I am making it. Have faith and everything always seems to work out. Good luck and congratulations.

congrats on your second child. I had four children myself and my husband worked many hours to just pay the bills. Everything worked out just fine for us. Everything will be ok, just take one day at a time.

Yes, a baby is a blessing and bringing up a second child is easier it is also cheaper if you already have baby things. It might be possible for your wife to feed the baby in a natural way and for the baby to wear washable nappies. He or she will grow up in a loving family and having two children on a budget is possible. Good luck to you and your wife. I hope that things work out well for you.

You must thank God, you still earn 50 000. Other people could not even have a fourth of that money in a month. You must thank God, you have given the chance to have children when other couples, like us, were not lucky to have. You must thank God for that blessing. Good luck.

hi jaypeemanuel congrats ahead and dont worry you and your'wife will somehow make it,but I would recommend birth control now so you do not have a third child until you could afford it. birth control pills do work, and you will be able to plan whether you do or do not want a third child.We did not plan and had two' children in ten months apart when we really could only afford'one but we did make it.Then I went on birth control as we had all we could a fford.

Dont feel bad for fearing what might be when you have a second child, if money is a worry then of course having another child will make you worry even more, but everthing has a way of working out so try not to worry too much. Congratulations!!!

I think this is a positive outlook and you should be delighted that you maybe haveing your second child. I look at it as a gift from god you may have financial worries right now but please know that god takes care of what belongs to him. He has helped me in many times of need that I have really doubted things and he saw them through. Just last night for instants I was at my breakingpoint and was all confused,angry,physically and emotionally drained about a bunch of things that I felt have come crashing down on me. I went to bed and must have tossed and turned for 3 hrs. when I decieded to come out to the living room just sit down and spill my heart out to god about everything. Yes I cried for about 45 minutes but I told god "you know my heart and life better than I do you have plans for me what ever they maybe. I know I am just trying to do things all on my own not knowing what or where I am going and I can finealy say god tht I need your help and am comeing to you now knowing that you are going to help me out of these lost feelings I am having. I am handing over everything to you now knowing that you will provide for me that you always have and always will" I would just sit and truely talk with god asking him for guidence on all of this and trust him knowing that if you are to have your second child all will be ok for god will see it through nothing is impossible for him. I do wish you and your wife the best of luck and congradulations to you both if this what's in store for you. Take care and god bless :)

You have really touched my heart because this is the same situation that I was in 14 years ago when I got pregnant with my 2nd child but I stuck it through and I am SO glad I did Wednesday she will be 14 and she is a BLESSING just like her older sister. It will be worth the struggle TRUST ME God NEVER forsakes His children.
