Ewuro4:Babe what i mean is that as far as im concerned there is absolutely nothing wrong with adoption. In a situation where everyone knows that you adopted the baby why pretend you gave birth to them. The kind of silly lies this woman was telling was irritating. And mind you these ones dont adopt legally. They go to baby farms. So are you saying that how they procure these babies does not matter? As far as im concerned if one wants to adopt go ahead and do that through the right channels. There is no need for all these kurukere business abeg. 3 Likes |

babyosisi i did not even read your reply to ewuro4 before replying. You get my point exactly. One of the owners of these baby farms confessed that they go as far as giving the woman an episitomy (spelling) to deceive the husband that the woman gave birth to these babies! Anyway that is another topic altogether. I had to unfollow that ttc thread cos it was heartbreaking for me. I cried on so many occasions for the disappointments some of these women faced. Please God remember these women and give them their own. 7 Likes |

Adoption is not easy in Nigeria,i said it once here n some1said i was lying.I tried helping a friend last year it was not easy,we kept seeing d "backyard runs own" n she refused saying she doesnt want some1 blackmailing her tommorrow.Nigeria is still far away,forget all this people saying they will if in their shoe.Yesterday there was a thread about GEJ's daughter n people were saying.i quote"u mean his adopted daughter",some other person was sayin he used to take those kids to school n back himself but they didnt stop.so unless it is made easy in Nigeria,this baby factories wont stop n people wnt stop blabbing nonsense. my nebor adopted a son n people dont stop talking,dis is something she did years ago. so thats y peole who do it go thru a lot trying to convince people the baby is biologically theirs.My childhood friends were thrown out imediatly their father died just because they were adopted n u wont belive their father was a magistrate,so its not easy for those ttcing in nija here,i pity them 5 Likes |

njokusboy: I hope the children are his Couples have been known to agree that the wife can step out to bring babies into the family when the man is the cause of the infertility Many of those women who visited prayer houses got pregnant the good old fashioned way not by any miracles. |

LewsTherin: I'm one of those you mentioned below. I won't adopt a child because of infertility. News about baby factories have messed up my mind about adoption. It's really messed up in Nigeria. I would definitely help in kids development either by paying school fees, sponsorships or supporting them while they are with their biological parents. I would never adopt a child as my own. I'm blessed to be fertile but even if I wasn't. I would accept my fate than introduce a blood line that hasn't got my DNA into my family. If my wife can't conceive, I would try outside. If I can't, then my brother takes over my properties. |

gbosaa: i guess your wife can 'try outside' too if you arent able to get her pregnant. How about that? lol. @ Your last sentence. Oh well. Some wives do have them. 9 Likes |
Re: For Those Trying To Conceive; the other alternative by EfemenaXY: 6:40am On May 22, 2015 |
Sensitive, sensitive topic. In Naija for example, it's expected that if the fault is with the woman, the man should "try his luck" outside to see if he can have his own biological kids. Doesn't mean he loves his wife any less, infact the opposite might be true. Not saying it's right, but I do understand, painful as it is. Now what if the roles were reversed? Would your average / enlightened Nigerian wife want to do the same? For her, it'll be that tug of war between: does she love this man enough to watch her reproductive years fizzle away, never to be reclaimed...versus the deep heart wrenching need to carry her very own biological baby for nine months, birth it, and nurse him/her. Doesn't mean she loves her husband any less... I honestly, honestly feel for both parties. Babyosisi, you are right. For those of us that just had them boom, boom, boom, we might never truly understand. #sigh#. 2 Likes 1 Share |

I can adopt if both of us have the problem (infertility). If it's my husband's problem and we have tried for years, i'm afraid i may leave him and try my luck elsewhere. If it's mine then he's free too and when he leaves me i will go and adopt. I doubt if i will be happy adopting when i know i can have mine. Though easier said than done but me I no fit for mental and emotional torture. 1 Like |

This topic is too sensitive. I m in God's waiting room and i know how tough it can be. My love for kids is mutual and i believe i will have mine soon. It has always been my dream to adopt my last child(a little girl with brown eyes lol). I have a sister who has been waiting for 8yrs+ now and i always find my tongue tied any time i want to bring up this adoption talks with her because i don't know her disposition towards it. TTC is tough. May God see us through. |

I think its a personal thing but give it another decade and people will come around and accept that it is here to stay. There is a lot of adoption going on in Nigeria right now, I come from a family where a branch had to adopt all the male kids. just to continue the family name. And am talking about doctors and lawyers who know about IVF. If I get to 32 years and am not married, am gonna go adopt me a baby or babies as the spirit wills me then. Then lemme see who will come from mbieri and tell me story 1 Like |

Amhappy:Hmmmm a very sensitive topic indeed. Adoption and the likes is easier said than done. Until you walk in same shoes you'll never know what it feels like I pray for your breakthrough dear. God indeed will bless the fruit of your womb. All my TTC friends and family shall all be fruitful in due time 2 Likes |

I dont joke with matters like this cos am a woman, if am doing this, its because my testimony came from it and I have been a silent reader until i discovered my solution. I must say it comes with dedication tho but it sure definitely works. so are you disturbed by fertility issues such as fibroid, cyst, tube blockage e.t.c and have tried various drugs that have failed? this is introducing to you our NAFDAC approved TCM drugs that is 99.9% guaranteed (lets leave the 0.01% for those in doubt). Our drugs are selling based on its amazing result and our drugs are specifically used for treatment and not supplements. why spend large sum that come with risk when you can get 100% elimination while treating the root cause. For consultation and purchase, kindly call 08134324629. if you are determined not to be convinced, please do not call or whatsapp my number because i love to work with people with trust and good faith. |
