Lol..... seems you might be in the wrong category!!!
Anyway, I just had this happen, and first of all you need to check your lint trap. (if you don't know what that is, look for a handle or bar that you pull out, and then clean all the fabric particles off--then replace.)
If you've done this, then it could still be a couple of things...
Gas dryer: you could have a leak, (call the gas company-- they have to check it for you for free) or it could be something called your thermocoupler (spelling may be wrong!)
If it's the thermocoupler, then it should be inexpensive to replace, and many guys know how to do it. Ask around.
Electric dryer: Could be that part of your energy source had blown a fuse. My dryer would spin, and act like always, but it wouldn't heat through-- I ended up finding out that electric dryers use ALOT of electricity, and often the plug is split between two different sources. The one that powers you r heating coils could be blown, and the dryer would still do everything else normally. Easy fix. Find and change the fuse.
OR your heating coil could be damaged in some way. They are kind of like the filaments in light bulbs, and also replaceable. Have someone help you take apart your dryer form the back and locate your heating coil--- carefully pull it out and look for any breaks, they could be miniscule!! If you find one, you need a new one. Look inside the door of your dryer or on the back to find the make, model, serial number, etc. and then call or go online to contact the company.
ORRRRR you could buy a new dryer pretty inexpensively out of the paper.... they usually last for years, so no harm in getting a used one!
GOOD LUCK!!

What does this have to do with getting pregnant?
If your dryer doesn't work, call a repair man.
