yes, I'm having the same problem now. The difference is that I have 2 children already. I think it mainly have to do with your husband, if his sperm count is high or low. I didn't have a problem before having children. I also think that it's because I weren't trying before. Now I'm married and planning the right way ,were having trouble! The best thing to do is find out your ovulation period and if his sperm count is low, and if it is have him abstain from sex or even masturbating to build up the sperm count. I'm in the mist of doing that right now so good luck for the both of us:).

I am, its been 4 months. Though i have two other girls I really want another one and seem to be having a hard time this go around...Dont get down, and maybe lay off the trying so hard for a bit. It will happen when it is supposed to and mentally being discouraged doesnt help. Besides its supposed to be a fun process! You can go to the OB and be sure all is in check, easy blood tests will be sure there isnt anything keeping you from getting prego. And if there isnt a normal period occuring they can give you hormones to regulate you so you may have more luck (thats what i just did). Good luck!

Relax. Frustration is a double age sword. You want a baby so bad you can taste it. But the more you try the harder it is to get pregnant because your so frustrated.
Do several things for yourself. Both you and your partner go to the doctor and have some fertility tests done. Increase your intake of folic acid. After having sex, keep your bottom raised for about 20 minutes. There have been studies to show rasing the bottom helps the sperm get to where it needs to be.
Above all have fun trying.

Sorry, but I haven't had a problem in this area, but don't give up. How long have you been trying? If you are so stressed out about it, sometimes that will hinder your success. It may not have anything to do with you. My Aunt and Uncle almost gave up, but after 11 years of trying, my cousin was born. So be positive until you have a confirmation that it just isn't possible.

Yeah we have been ttc for 28mos, 1 m/c at 7 weeks and 1 ectopic at 10 weeks. I had an HSG and Laparoscopy done and I have endometriosis on bladder, endometriomas, hydrosalpinx, pcos and enlarged ovary. We r doing IUI this cycle when I get it but chances r really low for that and IVF. But good luck to u!

Are you tracking when you are ovulating? You can use an ovulation test kit for that. They can be bought at the store and are next to the pregnancy tests. Also, after you have sex, lay with your hips elevated for about 20 minutes, before getting up. Hope this helps; good luck!

I had the same problem for four years. Finally I decided I was done and didn't want any kids ever. Next thing I know I'm pregnant...two years later, again....two years later , again.... I am done. Don't fret, all will be fine. When it's your time, it will happen.

actually that happened to me this month. back in may i had a miscarriage and the end of july/ beg of august we tried again. Almost every day literally me and my husband tried to conceive. seriously. but i believe that i was so focused on it and worried that it didn't happen. i had all the symptoms (because i believe i just HAD to be pregnant) but the 28th my period came. i was sad and upset. its a terrible thing to get hopes up on something like that!

it took me 18months. i gave up altogether and went after a new job- so i didn't want to get preg in the middle of that. we had sex once that month- the result is nearly two years old.
i think the secret is to focus on something else, although it's really hard.
Good luck

It took my husband and I about a year to get pregnant. Just don't stress yourself out too bad about it. A lot of stress can hinder you're ability to concieve. Just relax and think about other things.
