Topic: anyone here unable to ever have children... | |
---|---|
just curious how you deal with that. I have known that I cannot have them on my own short of invetro. But I have gone through this for about 6 years now and hubbs and I divorced and well I don't think I could ever put myself thru it again. All the pain and loss. I have lost 8 babies.

I also can not have children.The main cause of my divorce.I have lost two children.I still fight to this day with that one-I was told when I was 20 years old.I have a medical problem-35 years of medicine has stopped me.I have Epilepsy with sudden death seizures.So,I do know exactly how you feel and what you are going through.It's a tough bitter pill to swallow.I still can't get done.

Have U considered adoption or surrogate mother sweetheart?

well i've considered lots, but everything there is to consider is too expensive and since I am newly divorced and unlikely to get married anytime soon I'm afraid that it'll just be too late by the time I do find someone to share my life with.
There is such a difference tho when you don't ever want to have children and not ever being able to have your own. I can get pregnant but I cannot carry. I tell myself that I don't want kids, but I've been telling myself that for awhile now, so I'm not sure if I just tell myself that and now I believe it or if its how I feel. I know sometimes it really gets to me. Today I saw soooo many people with their children and it hits me, hey, that'll never be you. You will never have your own. I feel like the life that I had planned out, to be a wife and mother is just a fantasy. Oh well, no pitty party. That doesn't make it any better. |

i thought i couldn't carry because i was pregnant twice and miscarried....but miraculously four months after my second miscarriage i found out i was pregnant with my daughter.....but due to mental health issues i've been advised not to have more children, but what the dr's don't know is i was completely fine until dss took her from me

I am sorry you ladies can't carry to full term and have lost children.Have you considered adopting an older child or being a big sister to a troubled child that needs a positive role model?i know it's not the same but it could make a big differene in a kids life.:)

I was not able to have children. My only son is adopted. My husband and I spent 9 yrs on tests only to be told it would never happen. It's a hard thing to accept, but eventually you face the reality and go on with your life. At the time, there were not the options as there are today. Artificial insemination was just being used but my husband refused that option. Unfortunately, my son is about to marry a lovely girl who cannot have children either, so there will be no grandchildren either.

Maybe he will follow your lovely example and adopt also.Don't despair. |
