I used to want tons of kids, and not use birth control, til I found out if I got pregnant its a 80% chance I'll die, so now that dream is gone, it kinda of made me bitter towards kids. I Always wanted a big family.

I'm sorry you've been told that.

Have you had a 2nd, 3rd, or even 4th opinion?

 

[SweetAngel23]

I think I'll adopted some kids, give them homes.

 

[3Princessmom]

I agree, have you had multiple opinions on this????

 

[RoseofLima]

We all have a 100% chance of death...

I strongly agree with the others- check with multiple other doctors. I seriously can't imagine a situation where that would be true. I have a good friend who has a seriuos heart condition as well as Lupus-- and has 7 kids. It takes good prenatal care and diligent monitoring of her pregnancy and birth- but it is certainly not an impossibility.

If I was 100% confident that pregnancy would put me at great danger, I would consider a tubal.

But it would take a lot to make me 100% sure.

Adoption is a noble and beautiful thing and well worth considering.

I pray you will find relief from the bitterness.

Definately consult more doctors!

Adoption is a wonderful thing! One of my cousins was adopted from Tawian while his parents were stationed there with the military. One of my DH's cousins was also adopted. I can't imagine our family without either one of them!

Praying for you.

what is your medical condition? keep in mind doctors arent God and they are often wrong. I would definitely get a second opinion before assuming that what the doctor said is true.
