DEAR CHRISTINE – Seven years trying and still no baby

Mon, September 06, 2010 - 11:07 PM

My partner and I have been together for seven years and it seems like forever that we have been trying to have a child but with no success.

It saddens me when I see people with babies because I want to become a mother as well.

Christine, I would appreciate if you could send me the information for the specialist that you recently recommended to other women who have the same problem as I. Thanks in advance.

– N.R.


Dear N.R.

You need to check, first of all, with your doctor who should be able to give you the professional guidance you need.

You could also seek help from the Barbados Family Planning Association which has a team of dedicated professionals on staff who can also help you. – CHRISTINE

Instead of you trying to get pregnant with your partner of seven years, i think you should be trying to get him to walk up the aisle with you. we have too many single mothers.!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Judge not least yea be judged!

Dear N.R.

You both need to get yourself checked out by a specialist, you could be having a problem or your partner or both of you. The tests for a man is much less invasive from that of a woman, so I would begin with him first. You should also keep a track of your menstural cycles, like how long your cycles are. Your first day of actual bleeding is your first day of your cycle, you count those day until you start to bleed again.That would come in handy when you visit your specialist.
Good luck.

Carrie

N.R., First of all I have to agree with Ann and Shirley. I believe the reason why you’re not getting pregnant is that you’re attempting to do so the WRONG WAY. The idea of pregnancy and birth has been ordained by God within the context and confines of marriage. I believe perhaps God is granting you a favour by saving you from any possible misery and trust me, you may very well end up in misery and regret should you decide to go down such a path.

So what I would suggest, since you’ve been with the man for such a reasonably long time, why not tie the knot and get it on? God may very well grant you the miraculous favour of having children because you would be doing it the RIGHT WAY which is GOD’S WAY. I would admonish you to take such advice and please, DON’T BE A FOOL!

Here we go again (roll eyes) with the constant judgmental drivel from the holier than thou pseudo Christians.

You people make me sick, her inability to conceive has nothing to do with her lack of a wedding ring you nitwits. 

It is people like you who give Jesus and the church a bad name, if you have nothing but insipid comments to make with no feeling for the obvious pain this woman is going through then just keep your mouth shut!

My lady follow Christine’s advice and I wish you luck in conceiving.
