Omo_Alata:

Why would someone selfishly have kids, just so their family members can take of them? Why would one selfishly have kids to make them orphan?? If you are 50 and above, you have no business creating new children. it is different if you mistakenly got pregnant, but for you to purposely get pregnant, that is pure selfishness.

Seems you got yourself some points here..damnn! Good thinking.

picaro: So who needs the praise? Jesus (God) or Science? Woman get your mind right and give credit to who its due. Congratulations, but if it wasn't for science, she'd still be fasting and praying, with pastors making a living off her.
mr man...what is science and who did it originate from... Google IVF and see how many failures dat result from IVF..doctors will tell u it is a 30-70 chance of being a success.without God it would have been a failure.. Don't take for granted God's intervention in ur life.


lipstick 1: This is a good story,it will surely encourage alot of woman who find themselves in a similar position.It is worth glorifying God for for He made it possible for science to achieve such feat. Big Mummy,i dey follow u rejoice o
you are there my dear


dasparrow:
I totally get your point and I agree with you. I think that the reasons behind the average Nigerian wanting children is actually selfish. Most Nigerians are birthing children because they are looking for who will take care of them in old age. Heaven help them should their children turn their backs on them down the line. My bible tells me never to place my trust in human beings but in God only.

I also find it selfish when people who are dirt poor and can barely provide for themselves get married and then bring innocent children into this world just to join them in their poverty stricken condition. They raise their kids in slums and in face-me-I-face-you homes (you know, a single room with a kitchen and bathroom shared by all the other tenants). What of the ones who give birth to children and then are too busy to take care of them leaving their upbringing primarily in the hands of house helps?

Then you have the ones who don't even have what it takes to be a good and caring parent but because of that African mentality of 'what will people say?' they go and have children and later on the children grow up to become the 419 scammers, drug traffickers, thieving politicians, pros*titut*es (both within Nigeria and in Europe), runs girls, university cultists, agboros (touts), ritualists, pe*do*philes, r*a*p*ists and the likes that plague our Nigerian society and have earned us the bad reputation we have as a nation and people today.

Anyways, God is watching. Hopefully, God will give her and her husband the strength, good health and long life to raise those kids till they are old enough to take care of themselves.

guy stop preaching...you will get married one day and then u will tell me dat u givin birth wil b a selfish act...

its funny how spectators are very good in telling the players what to do... Relax when it is ur turn lets pray that it doesnt happen d way it is to them cos pple lyk these don't alwaz hav d strength to pull thru

cold: Madam,you got your babies through IVF,i'm happy for you. Thanks to science,God has nothing to do with it. Your 20 years of fasting & prayers yielded nothing until you turned to science.So please spare us all these God this,God that..we aint buying

thanks to science for letting you publicise your foolishness and thanks to God for his mercies to give you time to change..

Mr knowitall.:

oh please dont start with statistics...the success of Invitro completely depends on how much money you have to spend....first time success is very low...because it takes several tries for the body to not reject the fertilized eggs...
mr man pls read 1 cor. 3:18-20,yu nid it in ur life

hahahaha! Pls don't be ignorant. Death is not an inevitible end.. One can actually decided wen to die if he is actually in line wit God. And nobody is using death to intimidate, just trying to show you how great life is... If lyf aint a big deal to you, create one? I aint scared of death and also not fulfillin ur purpose in lyf because of death is one reason i think u shouldnt think of dying...

Am I the only one that read she's already gotten to menopause? That means someone has donated the egg(s), I'm only seeing a surrogate mother here. She only helped to carry to term the babies of another woman.

You're the ignorant one here. Why don't you re-read your post again & sees if it makes any sense. And while you're at it you'd do well to correct those silly blunders you'd want to put down to typos. It doesn't look good on you

Now God is responsible for science. New one from religionists. Whatever happened to fasting and praying and hoping that with God all things are possible?
If it is now true that science heals cures and corrects ailments or defects DITCH GOD and worship knowledge! The scales have indeed fallen from your eyes.

They may have collected her eggs years back and frozen them. Eggs actually remain viable for a long time.

Mr knowitall.:
this is crap...Invitro Fertilization means that the woman didnt get pregnant...the Laboratory gave her a baby......they

got the husband's sperm and the woman's egg and fertilized the eggs in the lab.....doing is this way....a 70 year old woman

can get pregnant if she has any eggs left...
Can you define pregnancy?

Mrknowitall its really obvious you dont know it all do you think IVF works all the time?? IVF is not always successful, so its still a big deal that she was lucky.

Happy for her.

emk4lif: Thank goodness she din't claim some God was responsible....the beauty of science.....
God has formed the universe, created all its consistent laws. If mankind has existed for so long, it has taken humanity as long to discover scattered parts of this law. A3 ever discovery, mankind celebrates his quest, and largely ignores the intelligence that created the elements of those laws.
Newton discovered gravity and is being celebrates, the celebrants don't pause to contemplate the glory of the intelligence that formed the great magnet at the earth's core.
Science is only a quest, and in due time, we will understand the harmony of all things. Celebrating science alone is a show of great ignorance.

Anyway it is true but no matter what God is on top of all situations.Even besides IVF I know a woman around Osogbo who gave birth for the first time at 65 years old.This is no news any longer

why thank god god has failed you for 20yrs and you decide to do the right thing and you got the right result. that is what is killing we Africans we attach too much credence to religion yet what we get in return is poverty , backwardness, underdevelopment, etc. African is reckon as the most religious continent which by extension is the most prayerful in the world yet she is also known to be the poorest, most backward, most underdeveloped etc and you claim your god is faithful and he answers prayers. so he turned blind eyes to those prayers? i thought he said seek and yea shall find and ask and yea shall receive angry so he lied after alllipsrsealed
