Struggling!

[Heartbroken17]

Last year it was confirmed by my doctor that I cannot have children. With no other option being suitable for me and my husband I have had to accept that we will live our lives without children. I am only 27 and my whole life I have dreamt of having a family...i just do not know how to deal with this and how i am now suppose to live the rest of my life knowing it will not involve children.

Hi heartbroken

From the research I have done trying to help my husband, most people say you never get over it but you can learn to live with it.

I think the most important thing is to reach out to a counsellor for you both, so you have a safe environment to both discuss how you are feeling and more importantly how you can move on together.

I am sure someone with more knowledge than me will reply soon.
