Question Category: Childcare Am I just being over protective?
Mamalette Support Staff asked 2 days ago

Hello Mamalette. I've been married and trying to conceive for 3 years plus now. It was difficult because hubby was based abroad and came back every year to visit and i had fibroid. As God would have it I conceived this time around to the glory of God. The issue now is that my husband and I travel home to visit his parents anytime he comes back and spend like a month with them before going back to our Base in Lagos. This time around I prepared as usual but my friends and family kicked against the idea with the reason that i was only 5 weeks gone and still tender and that the tendency for a miscarriage was high during the first trimester but I can go wen it's like 4/5 months along. I reasoned with them and cancelled the trip which my husband didn't even support from day 1 because he was also scared I would get hurt.. My sisters in-law tried forcing me to travel saying I was just being lazy and that other little girls jump up and down when pregnant and that it's only God that protects pregnancy and that i wont get to see their parents till d end of the year. they don't know what I went tru while trying to conceive,the number of drugs I had to swallow everyday, d pain from hsg nd countless poking nd turning from doctors, i was even booked for surgery to look inside my body nd detect d reason for not conceiving.Please .Please advice was it wrong not to have taken a chance with my first pregnancy in 3 years or am I just being over protective.
