"We all have hidden struggles but the real issue is our fear of jugment"
I’ve an adorable 5 year-old daughter at my age of forty-five.A West health doctormedic adviced me there was a little chance of me conceiving with my egg. The news were very disheartening, although with the *ThePregnancyFact. Com* I was able to end up a mother. I followed the directions in the formula and my reproductive condition has highly improved.
The pregnancy plan at *ThePregnancyFact. Com* bettered my health! I undertook a pregnancy check last week. I had a affirmative outcome! I’ve perpetually had the belief that I would naturally remedy my infertility.I am joyful to reveal that this plan has changed my health for the better! To find further info about it, please visit the website
I have been really scared to get in to a relationship with anyone again, because i never got pregnant for 7 years till and i got cured,Thanks to Dr Okubi channel for helping me.
This was a lovely talk. My partner and I have been going through IVF for 2 years and I'm just nearing 40 now. I relate to so much of what she talks about, but I was thrown off a bit by her daughter talking to her about trans people. I don't understand how that relates to infertility at all. Living the life you are comfortable with requires you to have a chance at life in the first place, which is what the infertility struggle is about.
Same. I'm slightly younger than you and am currently taking a break from IVF and trying naturally. It's such a horrible thing to go through. It doesn't even seem to be a genetic thing because parents on both sides had no trouble conceiving. Whatever happens, I have faith that everything will work out for the best.
She gave a great speech that was encouraging. I just didn't like the trans comment and global warming comment. Unnecessary and virtue signaling.

I just got my ticket to the early hysterectomy club.
I wanted to be a mother more than anything is the world and that's gone.
I don't know what to do with myself.
I'm so sorry. You deserve a chance just like everyone else. I'm so sorry your feelings in this are valid.

I know what I'm about to write sounds crazy, but I'm glad the world is falling apart, because knowledge of what's headed our way is the only thing that helps me find comfort with infertility. Knowing I don't want to bring a child into this world...
same here
I'm so bitter that I was encouraged to be everything BUT a mother. It's all I ever wanted to be, but even as a former ward of the state I felt the need to complete (and go into debt) for a college degree. I'm too depressed to use that degree at this point. I'm about to be 38 soon, have had multiple miscarriages, and infertility treatments aren't working.
Hi Betty, you can adopt a baby and still bring a mother
by of 45, I now have a gorgeous 5 year old daughter. I was informed by a fertility doctor from the West that I could not conceive with my egg. The announcements were very dispressing, although with the *ThePregnancyFact. Com* I managed to become a parent. I adopted the directions in the formula and my parental condition has highly improved. A little search with Google will help you get much information concerning this remarkable plan.?
Hugs...
Sending hugs 🫂
Anyone that says just adopt is talking from a privilage place. Adoption is a separate thing.Yes , you can adopt but you cant treat it thr same way.
Instead of leaving her... can't we keep loving her,stay with her....... she's not a machine who's duty is to give birth so that our family lineage continues.... I'll still love her instead of leaving her just because due to some medical issues she can't bear baby... brothers don't leave her ..in such situations all you do to her is leaving them is not good...be with her in this tough period❤
Good for you 💚
I feel a big elephant in the room to trying to educate about fertility and fertility problems to have them more accepted and not ashamed is religion. I grew up Catholic. I have many family members that have experienced miscarriage and recurrent miscarriage, but since Catholicism prohibits IVF have never taken that path. Well, for my husband and I it was the only path to fulfill my calling to be a mother. But I can never tell my family. This led to a massive shift within myself, and I cannot justify baptizing my son into a faith that believes he should not have been created via IVF. I still field questions about when his baptism will be. I try to have patience, and tell myself it is not my job to make someone agree or support me. But I still wish I could have their support.
I had 2 miscarriages when I was in my early 20s, now just turned 31 and my husband and I are still struggling with my infertility. I believe for some reason it wasn't meant for me but I cant help but feel like there's a huge chapter missing from my life and it feels so incomplete. As if I'm stuck in this chapter unable to move to the next despite how much I try. I pray anyone else struggling makes it through another day 💜🤍🙏🏻
Thanks
I used the *ThePregnancyFact. Com* when my wife and I made a decision it was time to have a kid. If you`d like to know how this formula is enhancing many lives, just visit this site I found out I was going to expect a baby after 3 months of eating healthy diet and following the program. Even though the chances of conceiving is less at my old age, this program were still able to assist me achieve it and make my life much better..

Scented
She had me until I found out she had a kid. People w children can’t relate..
Same, they just don't get it :(
Took me 7 years to finally be pregnant.. I though I couldn't be pregnant
She can still talk about this important topic.
It actually shows that she empathetic because sometimes suffering people don't have a platform to speak
That’s massively insulting and a toxic perspective. Imagine you get pregnant finally and someone says “Well hey now that your pregnant your struggle you had is irrelevant” that’s awful.
Thank you doctor Edoba for the time you took to make the best herbal medication and also give me the best treatment ever. You are the best doctor and no words can describe how grateful I am.
Surrogacy is different than a kidney donation actually. Bc unless someone is volunteering, as is the only legal option in the UK and much of Europe, there is the unjust element of wealth inequality. The only way someone would go thru sthg as life threatening as pregnancy for a stranger is bc they r too poor to afford what they need in life otherwise. This is especially immoral as surrogates are required to be mothers beforehand. So this is essentially their way of making ends meet for their families in a hyper capitalist country. U gotta ask yourself if a rich mother would do that? I haven't seen a single example to date. It's so obviously about $$
How can I share my Infertility story on Ted Talk? I got pregnant after years of struggling, 6 IUIs, 5 IVF's, and doctors giving me less than 1% chance of getting pregnant (just because I am almost 40).... THREE months later I was pregnant..."JUST" by changing and shifting my mindset.
If changing and shifting mindset was all that it took, infertility treatments and clinics would not exist.
For every story that says "we stopped stressing, and then we got pregnant", there's another that's "we were the most miserable we'd ever been, and then we got pregnant", or more importantly "we stopped stressing, and it didn't help at all", because no one mentions the stories where they changed something, and it had no result!
By saying that was all it took in the end, you're basically telling the rest of us it's all in our heads, or our fault we can't get pregnant.
@@Aethuviel clinics are not going to help you if you don’t believe (shifting your mindset) that you can get pregnant.. it s hard.. I know first hand, but at the point where ‘I gave up’ (shift my mindset) I ve had nothing to lose.. what I was doing and ‘trying’ and pushing to GET what I wanted did NOT work! I was loosing myself.. and had to change my mindset.. and it happened.. But you do you ☺️
@@Aethuviel and no one is blaming you trust me ❤️
@@danijelastrauss7069 plz share how your able to shift your mindset
This talk made me feel worse. Ivf and surrogacy is not the same as cancer treatments and you know it. Its okay if we dont want to do that. We need to value mothers and stop lying to young girls that their job is the pinnacle of fulfillment

No one deserves infertility
if she only starts having a baby in her 20s, yes she does
@@prizma45what?
Account made in 2020
Girls should start in their teens @@Lilita971
@prizma45 what century do you think we're in?
shut up j3w then blame your new century if you want infertility
masturbation can cause infertility.
And blindness.
🤣🤣🤣
Is this from new research 🧐?
Adopt a child!
Please, you and anyone else reading, don't EVER again say "just adopt" to people experiencing infertility. You're bringing absolutely nothing to the table. Do you think they've never heard of adoption before? All of us know adoption exist, and everyone struggling with infertility must hear it suggested to us MANY times.
Adoption doesn't work like "couple pops into adoption agency one day, has a background check, and comes back in for a healthy, well-adjusted newborn 6-12 months later". It's absolutely nothing like that. Read up on it, it's a long and potentially heartbreaking journey for those who choose to take it.
And many of us simply don't want to adopt. We want our own. It's natural to want our own. All power to those who do end up becoming great adoptive parents, but a child should NOT be a replacement.
"Oh, we tried for years to have our own, but we couldn't, so here you are, second choice". Of course no one says that, but it's the impression the child might get. You should only adopt if that's what you want REGARDLESS of your fertility. Not as an "instead of".
Not the same
haha @@Aethuviel
Everyone is not supposed to be a parent, if you’re infertile just accept your fate and get on with your childless life.
Rightly said besides there is no advantage by having babies
Yes, having children is expensive and the planet can no longer support more people taking up resources. Or if you want to be a parent why not adopt.
Said by someone who never adopted.
@@theneedle6785 exactly!
@@Android-ds9ie No advantage? What about having someone who would care for you in your old days, so you wouldn't feel lonely?
