Have been trying for 8 months with no luck.I'm getting very depressed.Any advice.I'm almost 32 never been preg

Answer 1

I had a hard time getting pregnant with my second and third. No offense your age is a contributing factor. You are more fertile when you were younger. I had my last two in my thirties (34+36). Relax it will happen. It took me six months the first time and almost a year the second time. With my first I was pregnant almost instantly at 20. Yes, I have a huge gap between my children. Not because of problems getting pregnant, because we just never had enough money or circumstances were never right. I have come to regret waiting so long. I wish I had had many more children. I am truly happy with my little ones. I also predict you will be two. I know this is ridiculous, but I sense you will have two children. Who, knows I am not a physic. But this feeling keeps overcoming me. You just need to relax and enjoy the sex. Because after a while it starts to become something you need to have a baby and this is not good. Love your husband and relax and before you know it you will get what you want. I also heard the sperm have an easier time swimming if you do the missionary position. I know how boring huh. Anyway I wish you alot of luck.

All I can say is that 8 months is not a long time, you only have around 20% chance each month for two perfectly fertlile people to concieve. So it can often take a while. Also if you were on birth control for some time that can take a while to get out of your system so the first few months may be a wash out anyway.

If you go 12 months and still no pregnancy go to the doctors straight away. The chances are there is no issue with you or your partner but its best to find out sooner rather than later, because trust me the fertility route with the doctors is one slow journey if you do need help. They will not do anything until after a year though.

And do not worry about your age, at 32 you are not running out of time, you are still young.

Good luck.

My first pregnancy was sort of a surprise mostly planned on my part:), but with this one I had been on BC for 2 years,my husband and I decided to have one more so I allowed my self to have my period and then just not renew for the following month. I knew that Most women ovulate 14-16 days after their first day of their last period so I had sex 2 days before (12 and day 13) then day 14 15 and 16. Sperm lives inside you for up to 4 days so I figured this would definitely increase my chances also I tried to have sex right before bed that way my chances were better. When you stand up or use the bathroom right away most of the sperm trickles out due to gravity. Another useful trick is while in missionary position place a pillow under your lower back and behind when having sex this will allow deeper penetration which increase your chances of pregnancy. Try to just have sex in the missionary position the days you are trying to conceive. I know staying laying down may sound silly to most people but it worked for my first which I conceived within 4 months of trying and now I'm 8 weeks pregnant and conceived after 2 weeks of trying. If nothing still has not worked then go see your OBGYN. Good Luck:)

Oh, please dont worry, its sometimes the worry why you dont get pregnant! I was 24 when I had my first baby it took me 2 months, with my 2nd baby I was 29 and it took me 3 months, my 3rd baby at 31 took me 6 months. I have heard it takes you longer to get pregnant the older you get, but that wasnt the case with my friend she is 32 has just found out she is pregnant and came off the pill, never had a period and was pregnant!! I have another friend who is 24, had one baby and has now been trying for 7 months for another baby so as you can see all women are different! My advice would be: Work out your cycle (periods) if say for instance you have a 28 day cycle (most women ovulate around day 14 after their period mid way through) if thats true you should have sex around day 13, 14, 15,! Another tip would be after sex throw your legs in the air and stay there for a while, I did it and looks like it worked for me!!! Ha Ha! Listen, good luck and enjoy practicing, its the best bit!!!! xxx

The best thing to do is find out how our body works. It is relatively simple to chart your cycle and thus find out when you are most fertile. Take your temperature when you wake up in the morning. It will rise when you ovulate and stay higher until your next period. Also keep an eye on your mucus. When it becomes stretchy like egg white you are most fertile.

A charity called called LIFE UK has a fertility programme which would be ideal for you. Also, an American organisation called the Couple to Couple League offer an excellent home study course.

Good luck to you!

hey babe.....please DON'T worry. I will tell you the story of my sister. She was trying for 8 years and although she and my brother in law were having a great sex life, she just COULD'NT get pregnant. Two things changed this!

Firstly, If your man is wearing pants....throw them away. He must wear boxer shorts as this affects the sperm count.

Secondly, relax.....the more tense you are and the mroe you think about becoming pregnant, the less likely its going to happen. My sister was excited about her holiday to Florida the year she conceived. It must have been the first time in years that she stopped thinking about the fact that she MAY be infertile. When she went on holiday and stopped thinking about it...IT HAPPENED!!!!! She now has three lovely daughters and is the best mum i know.

Can i also add....its not about how often you have sex.... sometimes its good to refrain from sex for a few days at a time as this may also affect your partners sperm count concentration.

Good luck my darling.....I believe in god....I will say a prayer for you tonight. xxxx

Answer 7

I had been trying for 4 years! It's is very depressing, There are things you can do with your doctor. First check to see if you can become pregnant then if that's all good ask about this blue dye, the shoot it in you to make sure there is nothing blocked, I was told it has therapeutic property's and you need to get it off your mind! Thinking about it gets you stressed I know how it feels! Make time and do something fun and romantic with out think about having a baby think about you and your husband, no stress opens you to being able to except what your waiting for. Good Luck!

Answer 8

Try to keep your hopes up... My husband and I have been trying since April and we are both 30 with no previous children. All I can suggest is that you chart your bbt and fluid to time intercourse on ovulation to increase your chances. I have been reading a book; Taking charge of your fertility by Toni Weschler and I am amazed by how much information I am learning about my body now!!! It really is embarrassing. I'm starting to get a little worried why we haven't conceived as yet as I have family background that isn't such positive help.
But... try a little longer and then go see your ob/gyn and maybe get help.. that is what I'm going to do if no luck by the end of the year.
{{{baby dust}}}} to you for good luck!!

First, make peace with the fact that you might not have kids. I know it sounds backwards, but it will help your stress levels. Then exercise more and keep yourself healthy. Take your prenatals. Try to enjoy life again and not let your world revolve around menstration and ovulation. Enjoy sex again with your partner and reconnect as a couple. Don't think about pregnancy so much. Because when you stop trying so hard, you have a much better chance to conceive. I know its hard to let go of that desire (going through it right now too). But I've heard time and time again about people conceiving after adopting or after giving up. Sometimes the stress of trying will prevent pregnancy. So just relax and let things happen.
