hi.my hubby and i have been married for 2 years already and although we've been trying really hard,it all goes down to being disappointed.you see, it's me who's got the problem(i'm polycystic).i know my husband loves me for who i am despite my condition.....it always scares me that one day he might be tired of waiting and eventually leave me...although, he assured me that he won't do that,i still feel depressed sometimes.. my obgyne always assures us that we'll just keep on trying because soon we'll gonna have our baby.i don't lose hope..i always pray that GOD will grant us our baby someday.

Oh that was sad. Just keep on trying and praying besides the doctor assures you that you can still have baby. Or you might consider having an implant? It can help to concieve. One of my friends undergo in that process and now she's just waiting for the baby to come out on her womb. Continue on showering your partner of your love and assure each other that no matter what happen you will always be there for each other. I don't think it can nor can't affect your marriage but if you truly love one another nothing will changed. I have aunt who can't bear a child and she and her husband still have a happy marriage. If im not mistaken they will about to celebrate thier 30 years being together.

If you strongly love each other, he won't leave you. But of course it could affect your married life. Before my husband and i used to fight almost everyday because he's getting bored and he misses his family. When I gave birth to our first baby, it changed everything. He would always be eager to go home and now he's used to his life as a married man. He became a more responsible person. Don't lose hope, God wont give us trials if we cannot surpass it. Your love for each other would make wonders...

Yes, some couples I know had big problems because they are childless. Men always wants to see their offspring so staying in a childless marriage is not much used to them. However there are husbands that remain at their wife's side with or with out a child. Those kinds of husband are few to count. Don't worry God will grant you a son someday. I will pray for you.

Hi melcahjone, My husband and I are married for two years after we got pregnant. We almost decided to go to an OB after our two years wedding anniversary. To our surprise i got pregnant and we knew it when we celebrated our second year anniversary. We were very happy then, along with prayers for two years and of course hope. God really gives us miracles unexpectedly but we should desire for it. So don't lose hope everything is possible, follow your OB's advice and your bundle of joy will come in time. If nothing happens then let it be, it can be God's will. Enjoy your marriage life, you and your husband have the mission that's why you are destined marriage. Be happy. Life is beautiful. Have great day! Happy mylotting!

i forgot to answer your question, If not having a baby affects our married life? well my answer is NO, we're 11 yrs married and nothing change on him or even me... we still love each other because GOD is the center of our marriage. Just always pray to GOD for the strength, 'cause many things may still happen to you as you go along with that kind of situation. Be strong and always seek guidance to our GOD.

Hi! well i'm married for almost 11yrs now and still don't have a baby. Sometimes i feel what you feel, specially when most of our friends always asked us if we already have a baby. It's very depressing. We already consulted my obgyne and she made series of test on me and my husband. No abnormalities whatsoever, we really don't know what's the problem. She gave us a schedule on when to make love, until October of 2004 came, we were very happy then 'cause the long wait has been granted and I got pregnant. Then December 24 of that same year, i got miscarriage, that was the saddest christmas that we had. I lost my baby, and until now we still don't have a baby of our own. But as you have said, we still pray to GOD that someday, HE will grant us our request and maybe you too... Good luck to both of us...

hai, i knew my husband for 14 years before getting married , when we got married last year it was too late for us to try having a healthy baby .. my husband having diabetes does not want to risk .. i want one but thinking deeply , i am also scared,, i may never ever have a baby ... i am learning to live with it .. but i wish you all the best not having baby does not affect me and him directly but the family especially his, ask about this all the time.. really heartbreaking questions are directed to me, i just tell them to go and talk to their son ...
