Three miscarriages is so heartbreaking
Our first pregnancy lasted 2 weeks .... And she had a miscarriage ... It was so heart breaking , 2 years on at the dead of night I still think about that child of mine that wasn't meant to be
Making babies is hard, growing them to be good citizens is harder.
Just remember boys and girls, kids are blessing but they are also a game-changer for your life. Don't have them till you're ready to commit. Don't have them to keep a relationship together. Good parenting requires you to do what's best for your kid/s and not for yourself.
@ahnuhmay sure for many they can bang them out intentionally and unintentionally, but don't forget you've got doctor visits, scans, cravings, sleepless nights, morning sickness, extra weight carry around, bones softening, hormones playing up, possible miscarriages, complications, mental health, etc for 9 months.
For those, who can't conceive naturally, that road is even harder and possibly very costly.
I wish all the married couples out there who are trying to have a baby to start their family soon! Good luck, hope you have a healthy and chubby kid😊
Chubster
Props to everyone for being brave to share your stories. Hope that everything goes well for you guys!
Pat is so pretty!!
so gorgeous sia!
Unexpected!
Did she write 12x?!
Her smile is super endearing
Very insensitive to the other two women.
I appreciate all the woman with pregnancy problem like cyst lah, and baby loss and all. I like legit learning so much from this, that is if I'm even getting attached XD. Really appreciate y'all coming forward.
The costs to raise a child is very high, especially during this difficult covid period
Stay single , save and invest your money...
My husband and I started trying early because I have PCOS and I have heard it takes longer for people with PCOS to conceive and I was worried about it taking too long... however we ended up getting pregnant on our first try and I have just had my 12 week scan. Don’t get too worried about your chances and just let your bodies figure it out. The more you stress the harder it will be to conceive.
Me too girl. I have PCOS, unfortunately for me, it took us 4 years and still no good news but IVF helped us and we have our first born this year. Everything in its time.
@@skirtrunning aw congrats on your first born! It’s such as tough thing with PCOS because I’ve heard so many people who have tried for ages and also I’ve heard of many who got it on the first try like we did! I do feel like I’m constantly worried though that we’re going to lose this little baby and the one time thing was just a fluke but I’m trying to stay positive that everything will be fine!
Congratulations!!!!
Me too i have hypothyroidism. I rarely have period. Married for 8 years. Just when i give up to keep trying to have my own baby and accept the fact gonna just adopt i got pregnant and now have a 3 month old. My tip was I use castor oil and warm my bottom belly. I also chart down for 16months my basal temperature to find my ovulation timing. (I found out i only ovulate few times a year)
@@shirleycool166 oh wow congrats on your little one! I am now 24 weeks pregnant and super excited to meet this little one ❤️
I have to agree with the Google part. I always googled shit and scared myself. I became a hypochondriac. Got massive anxiety everytime. Don't do it. It's bad for ur health
My friend once thought that he had a terminal illness after googling and finding out he had similar symptoms. He even started preparing his last words.
Turns out that it was another (treatable) illness, and that he was only scaring himself.
Dont google! See a doctor ( or more than 1 if inconclusive). Go for health screening if needed!
These couples are all amazing and hope they will get what they truly want. God bless you all
This is so close to heart. I’m just after my first month of trying and didn’t get it. I already felt so disappointed and worried as I have irregular periods. Can’t imagine how it feels to have disappointments again and again for so long.
We Malaysians and Singaporeans sound so alike. I couldn’t tell
Why am I watching this when I'm single
They lied to all of us at school. It's not easy!
When u dont want it its hard not to kena
When u want it its hard to kena
lmao same
U can make babies with pillows
lets make one together
Not first hand experience but years ago I attended a keto course and there was a couple that was very surprised that they had a very fast pregnancy after going keto. Apparently it dramatically improves men's testosterone and sperm quality. Not an expert but I think it's definitely worth checking out for anyone here who's getting frustrated!
I feel that the lady was already in pain and her laparoscopy was like a procedure to solve the emergency and there was like no choice. Perhaps given a choice, she may not want to have the laparoscopy but instead will want to try to get pregnant first before she gets her 4 cysts removed.
Yeah but as a dr, you need to tell them beforehand.
@@naileusmile2293 I'm sure she's required to sign consent forms to acknowledge the surgical risks... The issue most of the time seems to be different doctors having varied expert views on a laparoscopy affecting fertility. I used to consult a handful of doctors for trying to concieve and because I have an ovarian dermoid cyst, a handful advised me on a laparoscopy to remove the cyst first. That was when I realised how opinions can vary so much amongst doctors. the last doctor I chose to believe and followed through actually advised me against a laparoscopy, to concieve first and then remove the cyst after pregnancy. I am relieved I followed his advice otherwise I would not have the chance to hold my first born in my arms now.
Thank you so much for sharing this. My husband and I have been trying for the past 3 years but due to our hectic work life and much more issues in the mix, it's taking longer than expected. We have also signed up for I love children fertility check up. Hopefully we're able to get a slot. 🤞🏻
You already have a hectic life & you still want kids? Where is the logic?
@@lothekitty1327 so you're saying people with hectic lives shouldn't have kids because it's not logical? Firstly, we're hustling because we want our kids(if we have any) to have better lives than we had. Secondly, we're not getting any younger so we'll definitely want to have kids as soon as we can to avoid any high risk pregnancies. Thirdly, if anyone has your mindset, there's so many great minds that would not have been born.
Hope this answers you. 😊
You are so delusional ...you are already having a hectic lifestyle and still want kids.... save up your money and grow your wealth . Singapore is too overcrowded already..there is no point in reproducing. The government just want to keep on sucking your blood and also your future kids blood...this is not the right enviroment for them to be born in.Singapore is so suppressed and stressful with high cost of living...do you want your future kids to go through all these bullshit and suffering? Hell no to having a kid here...it is a scam and propaganda from the government...
Best of luck to the couples who are trying!
So first time we planned everything I timed her fertile period and did every day for a week and a bit more ...6 months nothing .
We decided to take a break from trying , I decided to supplement with wolfberries .... One day we just did it without planning and booooom now we have 2 kids
I lost my pregnancy twice. Now, I'm 18w and so thankful. I never get this long with pregnancy before. Before this one, I did keto diet with my husband and of course we take 800 mcg folic acid. We did sex once every two days, near the ovulation date.
I married for 8 years and did keto to lose weight few years ago. Ended up got pregnant and have a 3 month old baby now.
Congratulations
my goodness. i love the couple in white. so candid and so real!
The doggie position is the best for conception, and pillows under stomach for the female, after the workout , the female just slump there for half hour,
Regular exercise and nutritional meals works wonders in this department
Keep trying guys! May god bless all u kind souls.
"anything don't know, ask doctor, don't trust Google"
I feel personally attacked HAHAHAAHA
Just keep doing it daily.
Me trying to not have a baby so as to not overpopulate the already populated earth . Other peepo: conceive no matter what
earth =/= singapore. our TFR rate is only 1.4... still got room to grow. we need at least 2 to replace our parents. if not, have to import foreigners to make up for the numbers. you choose! ;)
Who would want to reproduce in this stress up high cost of living country...? Government also trying to pyscho us to have a kid...dont buy into their shit...it is all a trap and a scam. Be thankful you save tons of money when not having a kid. What for you want a kid to go through all these suffering and bullshit in Singapore?
0:20 What the "army"?
Don't Google too much.. Bing it on ! Jiayou guys
Couple not in romantic mood, not natural. Naturl environment is very importaant when love will get pregnant naturally.
I am 30 and still single..I am a woman..still cant find the right guy to get married..but I really want children..
If it comes , it comes...life is not all bed and roses like romantic novels and fairy tales sis... i am male 36 and single as well. In the meantime..dont fret about it...focus your life passions and goals first. Make more money. Waiting for the guy to come in your life is frustrating and will make u more miserable... it will come when you least expect it. If it doesnt really materialise , dont dwell on it...it is a cold hard fact that not everyone in this world is destined to get married. It all boils down to fate ( or luck)
Is just too rich problem. If you are poor you’ll have many children. Poor people always easily get children. Rich people struggling to get even 1.
The law of pyshics....lol
Don't think about how much you need to earn to retire. And dont think how much you will spend bringing up your child and how many white hairs and time and effort spent on your children until they grow up. Then only can have libido
Exactly...relaxation and happiness is key...but not in this country Singapore....IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN....
Doctor is just a physical form of google nowadays.
Actually it's more to don't trust doctor trust google
I had two miscarriage too(the 1st and 3rd), but have a successful pregnancy after my 1st miscarriage, now my son is 11 yrs old. After wedding Dec, miscarriage in late Feb, we both had diarrhea and I got a jab cos mine is more serious, so didn't thought that I'm pregnant, when I found out, my fetus was too small for the number of weeks old and my 3rd is I missed my menses for 2 month but there was no baby in my sac. After lost my 1st one, trying for 6months, we went to see Gynae every month and counting dates regularly for another 1 year, but still no news of pregnancy, so we decided to give up cos of Hub night degree course and he joined Superband contest at that time, and without counting date, I got pregnant and given birth to a 3.8kg baby boy.
damn the universe really works in frustrating ways huh.. its almost like its teasing you.. u want it? u dont got it.. u dont want it, here it is!
Doggie position is the cavemen position, take her like a caveman, also pulling her hair backwards, might stimulate ovulation.
That’s depressing. Have to plan for sex. If you feel like it just do it!
im ready to have a baby at 30..bit single, ugly..loner..😟
Married for 5 years.. Miscarriaged in 2019.done iui 4 times but failed. My husband has diabetic... But I've never lose faith... I put my trust to the Lord...
May God bless you.
Save some money and try IVF.... there are subsidies up to 3 tries from govt.... Good luck...
@@four.20 thank you♥️
@@skirtrunning plan to do so... After my miscarriage I decided just to take a break for awhile
jiayou
We been trying for the second one but gets harder and harder every year. This video touches so many people who try but feel like failing. I hope they get what they are wishing for
Hahahaha not enough army!
You again..XD
Whyyyy 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
Again
Our very own justin y 🤣🤣
Same goes to you.. and pls spend more time with your kid..
Patrina is so pretty!
Women need to plan a child earlier since we have to deal with complications. It also differs with where you live, facilities, your race and ethinicity, living conditions, health issues etc. For Indian women, oby/gyon advise the first child before 25yrs to avoid complications. Whereas western people and african people have stronger bodies. These days we have a lot of fertility issues in general. The older women are, the harder it is. So even before you get married, if you want child, discuss it with your partner. We have a biology clock unlike men. We face hormonal changes like menopause. But ofc pls be financially secure before you plan to have a child. Being a responsible parent is most important.
‘Anything ask doctor, don’t ask Google’ hahahahha kinda true
Can't relate... Trying not to have a pregnancy scare. 😂
5:30 irresponsible doctor.
In poor countries, people make so many babies easily but in developed countries, it's hard, because of stress? Work? Time?
Yeah thats the obvious answer
don’t forget rape exists ....
Thankful for this pregnancy talk, honestly i didn't think it was very difficult since a lot of my friends are having shotgun marriages? LOL
because their mentality opposite ?! 🤔 “ don’t want baby “ = baby
Watching this and thinking back to the few pregnancy scares I had and can't forget how terrifying it felt. Don't know if I'll ever relate to the couples in the video lol
Adults: Why is it so hard to make a baby
Teenagers: YES
0:17 wah respects to this guy truly, a god amongst men.
Blessings to all of the couples above to conceive.
My wife and me successful 5 months after we were married. Daughter Coming soon😊
I love how matter what color or nationality people are
When they are in phillpine they end up having the filipino accent😁
It's damn hard to make a baby when you want a baby.
It's damn easy to make one when you don't want to.
the universe works in frustrating ways huh..
Wait why did you change your channel to only real talk...even if there are other videos then real talk on there?
I have been trying for almost a year now but still no luck. What's worse is people (even strangers) keep on questioning me "why still no children? , u 30 plus already! ?" "Why u want to get married if no children? " those kind of questions without really knowing my struggles and situation. I guess this video is kind of comforting knowing that i am not alone.
I am 36 and to tell you frankly you will be a lot better off without children. Having children is NOT FOR EVERYONE...this is a fact.... dont have a follow the herd mentality....decide the best on what you can do. And not just following others blindly just to please them...
I feel damn sad one while im watching this.. throughout my younger life
Ive always been very active sexually and got numerous women pregnant.. i guess i was just abusing what i had, that many tried so hard in getting..
Whatever it is, if u have a healthy spermcount and ur body is all good
Be grateful for it
wait then how ppl one time kena
John and Pat has a baby already? :)
Omg so strong couples 😭 wish all of you all the best!!!
Singapore is a stressful and expensive country.....sperm and egg can also be stress up ....better dont have a kid and reproduce in this country...what for we want to them to go through the suffering and problems we have here? It is not worth the energy time and effort and the money...
John: it’s not like i have a chronic problem...
Everyone: Ohhhh yeah you do!!!!!!!!!
Oh....is this a new channel?
Welp besides the birth rate going down in developed countries the quality of sperm has also been decreasing :/
Trust yrself...dun think so much.....relax.....hentam kaw kaw.....celup lama lama. ......sure u get yr answer......
idgi she was unable to stand from the pain but angry that the surgery was done to remove the cysts
im too single for this
They are not talking about having babies they talk about other nonsense issues not related to having a child
Yes the first couple ..10 min...but is not happening
My problem is that I’m too fertile. One shot 1 born..
How do you know whether you want to have children or not?
Exactly. Think deeply about life first, then decide whether it’s worth it to have children. The world is already in a mess right now
@@lothekitty1327 You have a point there. It’s a question I’m asking myself too but it is not a thought/question generally encouraged or acceptable in my religion hence, I’m genuinely asking.
Arya Stark It’s good that this question even crosses your mind. Most people don’t think about it, & just reproduce reproduce & reproduce. I have nothing against people that want to experience having children. But many people reproduce irresponsibly. They failed to understand what it means to bring new humans onto this world, which could have destructive consequences to the child. If anyone wants to reproduce, please seek knowledge first & foremost, develop the mind first, so that when they become parents, they will know how to raise & guide the child to the right path. I say this out of compassion & empathy for the child..there are too many neglected children on the planet
I thought making babies were easy… just u know
Such a good investment to watch this episode.
Yeah! I know! I thought making baby would be so easy before,. Forced my husband in bed too many times before finally conceived 🤣🤣🤣
Pretty sure your husband enjoyed every second of that baby making process. Otherwise your children won’t exist. Lol
If the baby look like the guy.....
it takes a lot of courage to speak up on things which are so personal for a couple.... they are doing a vital job of educating their peers and also elevate that social stigma many people go through...
best wishes to all of them.
Very educational video 😊
Eat fenugreek..
The sad truth peeps get married late due to societal pressure and high cost of living...
Start young. Woman can’t wait. Age is the limiting factor.
Nafisah Ayub U didn’t get the point. Don’t get too personal. My statement is based on two equally healthy couple. woman getting pregnant at older age will increase risk exponentially for both the mother & the baby. U are a woman. U should know that. So start young . It’s unlike the case for man. Just look around.
@@hederui_baby4299 He’s not wrong. The older you are, the risks of childbirth is much higher, no matter how healthy the woman is.
Eh...was too easy for me. Bang..bang..then BOOM! I was hoping it would take longer and require more effort...:-) Those couples having difficulty conceiving should send their wife to my house...lol
just admit you are weak, i help you
Is not hard to make the baby, the difficult part is taking up the responsibilities. Stop making stupid excuses
are u even paying attention to the video?? these people are able to take up the job of parenting but they found it hard to concieve the kid
They should have a kid elsewhere and not in Sillyspore...
