Re:birth control
I’ve seen it happen more than once where someone I know was on birth control and had a very hard time trying to conceive once they where ready to have kids.
My youngest daughter had a couple of miscarriages that were attributed to birth control pills.
She finally did manage to have 3 beautiful grandchildren (for us) but each time she had to have her blood monitored and ‘thinned’.
She and her husband are now done (he got snipped) so 3 is enough.. :0)
I’m not yet married but have the lady in mind. She’s over 35 and a smoker, so birth control has been out of the picture for a while. I’m praying for enough time to make her an honest woman and have at least 2 kids knowing that 40 is one of those lines in the sand.
An old girlfriend of mine went on BC in her early 20s. She was on a host of other meds for some dermatological issues. Once she started on the BC, her body went ballistic. Last time I saw her she was over 300 lb. and was covered in benign subcutaneous cysts. Hormones are a nasty thing to play with!
