I got married at 33. We didn't want kids so my wife started birth control. Had our first child a year later. Four years after that we had our second. Changed birth control and had child number three 3 years later. Our forth child was born 3 years after that and our last one was born when i was 49. My wife was 42 at the time. Like you she was concerned we were getting too old but i reminded her that when i was born my dad was 63 and mom was mid 50's. Even though i was unplanned and sort of a miracle my parents give me more love and wisdom than most people get in a lifetime and were the best parents you could imagine. I've learned to never question God's timing. I have no doubt with God's help you will be wonderful parents to no telling how many children.
I’m so sorry for your previous loss. I I married late, 31.5. Started trying at 34. Terrible time trying. Did 2 rounds of IVF (insurance paid 🙌). Healthy baby at 37 through ivf! 🙌 2 years later got pregnant NATURALLY and had a healthy baby at 40!! Keep the faith. Sister had her first (& only) through IVF at 44. I agree with you, start sooner than later!!!
I'm sure you don't want to hear this, but the sake of your fertility consider working on your diet and postural health. No vegetarianism or veganism! Btw, you look way younger than 40. You've got good genes! You can still have a big family.
You are a gorgeous woman. Glad to see that you are creating content again. I love listening to your insight. I wish that I could find a woman like you in Los Angeles.
YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! I'M SOOOO EXCITED FOR YOU! GOD has blessed you young lady!! This is the BEST news I've heard in months! I'm truly tickled pink! :) :) :)
Keep your mind in Prayer 🙏 My wife went through four 🙀 And I God is Awesome Three Don’t Know your Challenges. 🙀. Thank you 🙏For your beautiful insightful wisdom 💎 🙏🙏
My wife and I were in a similar situation. We got married at thirty and weren’t going to have kids. Waited 5 years. We now have two children after 7 rounds of IVF (~$70,000). My wife is 42 now and her eggs are just about gone. 13 eggs and one baby with the forts cycle and just two eggs and one miracle baby on the last cycle. We want more but at this point it’s highly unlikely. We would have started right away if we new it would be like that. I’m happy for you. Congratulations. And remember to look at the bright side: one kid is a good life. You’ll get more sleep. 🥱
Good to see you back, and congratulations for your pregnancy! At the risk of TMI, and keeping in mind that yes, I have that biological advantage you mentioned, hear me out on this one... I got a vasectomy approximately 9-10 years ago due to my last GF being allergic to latex and having horrid reactions to hormonal birth control, and since neither of us wanted children at the time, it suited us both. But nowadays? Even though I'm 51 (and she and I are long since no more), I've got someone in mind who I would actually fancy having a family with (long story for another time), and I'm regretting that decision, as well as some physical side effects that are making me want to get it reversed. Though I'm MGTOW in spirit for a few reasons that I've likely mentioned to you before in the past, being at the age I am is making me reconsider a few things, the lack of Someone Special and a family of my own among them. The young lady in question I mentioned at the outset is someone I've known for many years and is someone I'm well and truly smitten with and have been for a long time now, and the fact that I would actually consider walking down the aisle a second time at all with her should tell you something. I think that us men feel those things as well, but we just have different ways of expressing them, for one, many of which I agree are unhealthy. I guess my point is that I sympathize because I relate to how you feel about being past a certain age and being worried about how old I'll be when my children (if ever I father any) come of age, and it's getting me down a bit as well. My past fears about how I dreaded I'd be a terrible father aside, nobody is ever truly ready most of the time to be parents, I think. All the best to you and your spouse, and may your birthing and such be smooth and trouble free! *HUG*
Thank you! I think if I were a man I’d be leaning towards MGTOW as well, my husband has also said if he & I hadn’t met & changed for the better together he’d be in the same boat. I used to beg my doctors to have my tubes tied & they were the only ones to tell me No, that I might change my mind. At the time it made me angry but now I’m so grateful for their foresight! If you decide to get it reversed & tell this Special Lady how you feel, I wish you all the best! ❤️
@@LifeThroughHisName She's currently an ALT teaching elementary schoolers English in Japan, so there's that to consider, and I don't do that distance thing anymore. BUT...she may well be returning to TX in the near future, and if she does, I may well ardently pursue her unless she finally tells me "Nothing doing." She does know how I feel and has always been a bit coy about whether she feels the same or not, which leads me to believe it may well be (as usual) one sided on my part. Ah, well. Life goes on.
@@LifeThroughHisName Aww, thank you! I'm expecting the worst and hoping for the best, but then again I tend to never be whatever women want at any given time, so if it's one sided, I'm over it. I'm no longer 16 years old and easily devastated by rejection.
As a divine creator you may have seven children it’s up to you just stay positive and do not dwell on any bad things AT ALL because that is what you will attract. Much love to you.
Congrats Vanessa! You can ramble all you want kiddo 😁👍 Conference call with Kayleigh Mcenany ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qtZHMTDDDec.html it ain't over 🙂
"What's a dazzling urbanite like you doing in a rustic setting like this?" Just kidding! You look great out in the country! It's a great place to raise young'uns too. Now lose the east coast accent and learn to drawl, y'all. :P
You are really 40??? Geez, I thought you were much younger then that. But btw I am guilty of telling women 'you have time' oops...will stop saying that now.
