Dont be sad, just be patient. Its all in God's timing and you know that His timing is absolutly perfect. But, It does take the average couple 1 yr to get pregnant some is quicker than others. Women generally ovulate 1 week after their LAST DAY of thier period. Try 3 days after your last day and then every other day after that. Sperm can live in the women for 3 to 5 days. There is alot of information on the internet about ovulation so google ovulation calender and get some information there. Good Luck to you and God Bless!!!!

You don't need to talk to a professional yet. Go to www.fertilityfriend.com. This is a place you can track your temperature and many other things. This will help you figure out when you are ovulating (since everyone is different). I'm 22 as well. My husband and I just started trying about 3 months about and I'm not pregnant yet. They say to try for a year (which I know sounds like forever!) then if you haven't conceived by then you should go to a doctor. The average couple has a 25% chance every month to conceive and an 80% in a year. I'm not going to tell you to be patient or don't get stressed b/c I've heard that enough and I know how frustrating those words are. Just keep if fun with your man and Good Luck!

Just because you have a regular cycle, this does not mean that you are fertile every month. It takes time. Just relax. Everyone is different but usually about half way thru your cycle you will ovulate. For some it is earlier.Some girls have sharp pains, bloating and mucus during this time. Your temperature may be slightly elevated. You can keep track of your temperature and all the signs but when it is the right time, God will give you the perfect baby for you. Until then, just enjoy loving each other and the wonderful gift you have in that. But I will pray for you to conceive soon.
Just an extra thought, you two might want to look into some cleansing herbs. One of my friends did a cleanse and got pregnant right after. She had been trying for a year. The colon sits right over the uterus, so if it is clean, then there isn't any chance of toxins seeping into that area through the colon walls. Your husband should do it too. Read up on this. Make sure you are eating lots of fruits and veggies, lean meats (preferrably organically raised) and drink lots of water.

Since you have been trying for a couple of months, it might be a good idea for both of you to go get checked out at the doctor and make sure there aren't any underlying health issues preventing you from conceiving. Infertility can be caused by a wide array of things and it's nothing to feel ashamed of for either partner.
The best thing you can do in the mean time is to just truly enjoy each other when you are intimate and don't make it about trying to get pregnant. Make it about enjoying each other physically and emotionally. Sometimes when you're not trying is when it's most likely to happen.
There is hope. I was told at 25 that I would never have kids because of a severe case of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and my fiance was told he had a very low sperm count. We just decided that we were going to enjoy being in love and have fun with each other and do you know that we are now 18 weeks pregnant? Our baby really is a miracle. You're so young, just keep trying. It will happen when the time is right.

If your period started on the 16th then your most likely to ovulate on the 30th. So to cover all chances start having wild sex on the 26 and continue till the 1st of October! Try not to think about babies, go out for dinner or have a quiet romantic dinner at home. Burn some scented candles ( lavender and vanilla) are mood setters! and have a couple glasses of wine to relax.
The rhythm method was used as birth control for centuries. It is quite simple as long as you keep track! so get a small note book or mark on the calendar. The day your period "starts" is day one now count to 14 and that is the most probable day that you will ovulate. ( this is based on a 28 day cycle) When you ovulate the egg remains for approx 48 hours it is in this time frame that you can become pregnant and if the egg doesn't become fertilized it is expelled from your body . Good Luck!

go get a book called Taking Charge of your fertility by Toni Weschler
This book will help you with all of your menstrual and conception questions. It’s for all women - not just women trying to conceive. It covers everything from temperature to mucus checking, etc.. It will help you understand your body and all the myths about it. It will help you time when you are ovulating and the best times to conceive – or not! It tells you how to figure out your cycle and what to expect. My husband and I tried for a year to conceive and nothing happened. The first month I used the book we conceived right away. Now I am due Feb 2. It's about knowing your body and knowing when you are fertile or not. You can pick and choose what you do with your info. Good luck and don't listen the all the myths!

Timing is everything when trying to get pregnant. You need to figure out when you ovulate so you can time intercourse the day before and day of ovulation. Try using ovulation predictor kits or charting your basal body temp. Be sure you're taking prenatal vitamins before getting pregnant. And remember, the average healthy couple only has a 20% chance each cycle and it can take up to a year. To figure out about when ovulation will happen this cycle you need to determine how long your cycles are. Figure out when your next period should start and count back 16 days--start having intercourse. Ovulation happens about 14 days before the start of your next period.

I have had 3 children and a miscarriage. and I was told when I was !8 yrs old that I couldn't have babies. Look at me now. I have been where you are and no joke when I would QUIT trying to concieve I would concieve every single time. I didn't concieve for the 1st time until I was 25 and it wasn't for the lack of trying. God knows what he is doing. good luck and God bless By the way I think around the 1st of october would be good for you.

Girl here we go, I know what your going through it took me 6 months to get pregnant - but it didn't have to take that long - there are so many different reasons why it hasn't happened yet - first you need to know exactly when you ovulate - I took my temp at the same time every morning b4 getting out of bed and on the day after you ovulate your temp rises - but that only helps you know you already have - you have got to watch your cervical fluid/discharge - when you have the gooey cold stretchy egg white kind your FERTILE! and that's when you wanna do it - I unfortunately didn't have alot of fluid so that's why it took me so long - but you can use "Pre-Seed" - its a lube that doesn't harm sperm - you don't want to use any others like KY because they can kill the sperm - so hope this helps and good luck :)
