    The second is more correct. Don't forget your apostrophe in I'm. Would "I'm not blessed with a child yet, but I might be in the future" be more to your liking?

      I'd presume the correct grammar would be.
      But I may be in the future.

      Thanks for the correction on might/may. Don't have an excuse why I didn't catch that.

      Actually, using "may" is the more correct version if you are unsure as to whether something will occur or not.  The most correct version is :
       
      "I am not blessed with a kid yet, but I may be in the future."
       
      Please see this link for clarification about the use of "may" and "might".

       
      I am so sorry my friend.  Blurtit does not allow the link to appear in the answer.  I shall leave this link in your shoutbox.  It is preceded with http://www and then 'askoxford(dot)com/betterwriting/classicerrors/grammartips/might ormay?view=uk

      You could also try replacing the word 'kid' with 'child'.
