Having Kids

I am coing up on my 1 year wedding Ann. And even more now than before in my life I want to have children. I havent seen a doctor about it yet but I believe I am barren. I know I need a professional opinion about that for sure but I an really afraid it will be true. I just have a really strong feeling in my gut. I cry sometimes because of this thought and it hurts me so deep. I havent met any barren women yet to get any type of feedback of support or anything yet. So I m just beside my self with sadness and even anger sometimes. Its like I even get thoes days where I become numb inside and I almost just want to stay that way..

The only thing we have to fear is fear itself. Your fear is preventing you from knowing the truth and being able to do something about it. Go to the doctor so you can know for sure.

I know I should but it's easier said than done. I actually go into panic mode. I don't want to pay someone one to tell me what my gut feels.

Your gut may be wrong it may be right but there's only one way to find out. Seriously stop letting fear of the unknown stop you from living your life.

Friend if God is ready to give a child to you then you should accept this because in life we can go ahead anytime but after marriage no life without children. This is ask those women who has no child even after 5 yrs of marriage 7 yrs of marriage. This is god gift so at least till one child born you should not reject for this gift.

"but what about the teens that get knocked up, " may be u have something to tell. " doe this also mean that god chose that time for them to be with child?" -- I wish and pray to God that He will bless u with a baby soon. In fact I had grand children four or five years after marriage of my kids. Do not worry.

Don't give up if you really want to have children. There are other ways to have a child, you can adopt also. There are plenty of moms who can't have children and know that a baby raised by them will be their child no matter what. Check with your doctor about your condition, don't loose hope.

I am unable to make out what brings fear in you. Probably u cannot tell here. Lead a normal life and am sure u will be blessed with a baby soon.

Its really true that truth will set you free. Lately, I was also afraid to take pregnancy test cause I missed 3 and I have a lot of issues to deal with before I bear another child and I was on to pill which will surely harm the baby if it would be real. Then I prayed thoroughly before I take PT that it should turned out negative. Good thing God hears me and the burden that stressed me out for two weeks was totally gone. With your case, its really hard to accept that your are barren but your heart will stay restless if you don't see a doctor. Don't lose hope, have faith that God do miracles. My aunt and uncle took 10 years of marriage before they got their first child. Just be patient, maybe the child will come on God's perfect time.

Why are you crying over something that you haven't proven yet to be true? Face your fear, go to the doctor and have yourself diagnosed if you are capable of having a child or not. Prepare yourself for the worst and be ready. You can talk about it to your husband. He will understand. There are lots of childless couples but they are happy. They adopt from their nieces and nephews or from an orphanage. Even if a child is not your biological own , he/she could still fill the void of not having a child of your own. But that is, if your feeling is proven to be true by the doctor.
