LOL, you might need more than just a year. QUIT trying because when it is the RIGHT time for you and THE BABY ~it will happen. Also if you do not have regular periods, it might be due to fibroids or irregular horemone surges, or maybe you do not eat right. Hard to know from this chair...
19 does not sound young to you, but honey it IS. Enjoy yourself and learn who YOU are and enjoy who you are before considering a baby. The baby will thank you for it.

First of all, lay off her on the age thing! I married my high school sweetheart when I was 19, had my son when I was 20 and now I'm desperately trying to get pregnant again after 2 1/2 years. Age is only a factor in those with a lesser than neccessary level of maturity. (If this is case dear, make sure you've very heavily weighed the consequences of a baby: costs, loss of selfishness, lack of sleep, the slow down in intimacy between you and your significant other, child birthing itself...this list could go on forever) I'm not saying that rearing a child is not worth all of the struggles, it is!!
Your best bet is to first get in and have a physical done. (make sure they run a pap on you and try to get to the bottom of your absent periods) Then, if after trying an ovulation prediction kit, you're still not achieving success, head to the fertility clinic. They'll run buckoos of tests on you so make sure it's something you want badly enough to endure everything you'll be put through. Good luck!!!

I honestly wouldn't advise you to start a family yet. I'm 26, got married at 20, and now have a 2 1/2 yr old. Don't get me wrong, I love my family to death and wouldn't trade them in for the world, but I wish I would have waited a few more years. We struggle sometimes to pay for our mortgage and car payments. We both have decent jobs, but still there always more expenses. We both have to work alot which takes away from the time we can spend with our daughter. Had we waited a few more years we would have been able to save up more and be able to enjoy more time as a family.
Besides all that, if you really think your ready, I think that the more you stress and think about it then it won't happen. You have to just relax and it will happen when it's meant to.

Go to your doc, they will be able to see if anything is wrong due to your odd periods. Or, unlikly due to young age I would think, but maybe one of you isn't that fertile.
Honestly though. You are only 19. Do you have a partner that will help support you thru this? Is doesnt matter if you are married or not to them, but you need someone who isn't gonna run when you need them.
Having a child is a ton of money. Its not something you want to go into young, with no money and no insurance.
Maybe, your body is telling you that it isnt time yet. You are a little young to start a family. I would wait a few years, get established, and think about it then.
I am going to be 22 in July, my fiance is 23, hell we think we are still too young to have children! Our ideal time to start trying for children is around the age of 26-28.
I would think you would want to live your life first w/o having to care for a child constantly. I want to travel a little, enjoy life, enjoy getting married (next year), and then when we are sure we are settle fiancially, then start a family.

Are you married? Do you have your own place? Are you financially stable with a good job? Are you willing to not have the coolest, hippest clothes so that you can buy diapers? Are you ready to give up going to clubs, movies, bars, and whatnot? Are you prepared to deal with a screaming baby at 4 in the morning (who's been doing it for the past 3 hours)? Are you ready to be completely selfless and put your child first in everything? Are you ready to give up your youth?
There is alot that comes with having a family. I got pregnant at 19 but I had checked off everything above. I love my son very much but I know some young parents who resent their child for taking away their life. Think really heard about this before going through with it, for the sake of your child. You want to be able to give your children the world so why don't get some of it yourself?

There could be many reasons for not having a regular period. See a good gynec. On the other hand, don't rush into starting a family. You're too young and have the whole life ahead of you. Besides, nothing remains the same.

Well I am not sure of your family situation. Maybe if you are a person that believes in signs...then you should take this as a sign that it is not your time. Just be patient and when the time is right it will happen. If the timing is right for you then maybe you should have a conversation with a fertility doctor. Just make sure you think about what is right for you and only you. Goodluck with what ever the future may bring.

Well first off, I would check with your Gyno if you haven't had a regular period. Something maybe really wrong or that your body is tell you it isn't ready.
Second, I think you are alittle too young for a family. You are still growing and having a baby can alter you. You want the best for your baby right? If you do, you will wait until you are well off in a job, marriage...etc.

You are nineteen!!!!! Get educated, get a great job - then when the time is right, have a baby, but not at 19! Children are expensive and take up ALL your time and they need loving and caring for so much, that you have no idea or can comprehend at 19. Babies and children are selfish in a way that your free time is devoted to them.
Enjoy your 20's! Great years and loads of learning to do.

First and foremost you need to see a doctor, as your irregular periods are probably the cause. This could be due to the lack of a certain hormone/hormones, which your doctor can prescribe you.
When your period is regulated then, if you are otherwise healthy, you should have no difficulty getting pregnant.
Don't put off checking something out. If motherhood's what you really want then see your doctor as soon as you can.
Very best of luck!
