    Thank you so much for your continued support and love.
    On this week's episode of Being KAMBUA we check our progress.
    The journey of infertility can be extremely daunting. It feels like groping around in the dark, trying to find answers. It changes you; in depths that cannot be measured, or understood.

    HSG was one of the most painful procedures in my infertility journey .I remember the fertility specialist quoting me a minimum of $25,000 for IVF and ended up doing traveling to Kenya to do it .I did 2 cycles which didn't work and got pregnant naturally a few months after .She is 20 months now .

    I am 30. I have had 1 adorable son and 3 angel babies ie 1 miscarriage and 2 raptured ectopic pregnancies. I have lost both my fallopian tubes but I know God will show off through me when I decide to do IVF. The pain though is unbearable, still cry from time to time but all will be well. Mine will be a testimony

    Thanks Kambua for this.
    "Sina ubaya" "my intentions were good" "I don't mean to be rude"........etc. are words said by people just before they were rude or before they said sth that came out badly.
    The truth is they already know they should not say it but their itch to say is more important than to be sensitive. So their intention is usually very selfish and has nothing to do with the person they are talking to.
    These conversations are important to have. It's important to speak up.

  • @waitherachebbe3150
    @waitherachebbe3150 8 месяцев назад +13

    Those who ask their friends how many children do you have? Why don't you have any? What are you waiting for without getting to know what a woman has gone through should stop and should be ashamed of themselves
    These were reasons I have avoided reunions and lengthy conversations with childhood friends
    Kudos to those who've kept quiet and maybe prayed secretly or waited for me to speak about my children or marriage when I'm ready.
    We need to have these conversation as africans and be at peace.
    May God remember all waiting wombs and healing souls

    Thank you so much for being vulnerable and sharing with us your journey. Societal expectations on having kids are harsh. Not having kids or having one is deemed incomplete.
    Mine is secondary "unexplained." Had 2 hsg both done by a female doctor. I was told to take tylenol 30 mins before. Maybe that helped. It was seamless and painless. Infertility is physically, financially, and mentally draining. People need to mind their own wombs, not others.

    I took a hormonal test in February and when the results came back, my FSH levels were extremely high... indicative of early menopause. I remember searching online for testimonials of women who had gone through similar results and had success stories. Coz it wasn't the same, getting encouragement from people who didn't know how it felt to hear such news.... I'm still waiting on God but it is encouraging to hear of what He has done for you. God bless.

    HSG test is the worst possible thing. The fact that medics downplay it is even worse. I asked my OB several times to explain the magnitude of the procedure and he kept saying, "You'll be in and out in no time." I was horrified at the intensity of the pain and even thought something had gone wrong. I remember lying on that hospital bed feeling exactly what you described - defeated. But God. The God of miracles. The God who heals and restores. Thank you for sharing your story Kambua.
