We have been trying to get pregnant for 6 years with no luck. Now I have given up all hope of ever getting pregnant. I have talked myself into being happy without having kids. Is this normal after trying so long.

I think it's completely normal to want to give up...but I also think that you may be just trying way too hard and stressing yourself out too much. I know several couples who have adopted and gotten pregnant in the same year because they quit worrying about conceiving and put it out of their minds. Once their attention was on something else, they had no problems conceiving. Best of luck to you, and try not to get too down about it...things will work out in their own time.

It is completely normal to give up after trying for so long. With my first husband we tried for 2 1/2- 3years to get pregnant. We went and got tested and we tried clomid and had schedules and everything but nothing worked. Then after we got divorced shortly after i got with my new fiance and we tried for two years. By this time I had completely given up. I was actually to the point where I was excepting the fact that I wasn't going to have any kids and was ok with it, which was hard because I really wanted them. Then all of a sudden all the symptoms started and sure enough i got pregnant. So it may or may not happen but even-though you hate to hear it especially when you are trying and want it so bad, you just have to relax and don't think about it so much and maybe, Hopefully it will work out for you too!!!!!!!

I'm so sorry you have had such a hard time! Have you been to the doctor to find out if there is something keeping you from getting pregnant or tried fertility treatments? I would think that what you are going through is normal, you're coming to a point of acceptance. Have you thought about getting a surrogate? If you've been to the doctor and there is nothing keeping you from getting pregnant, it may just be the stress of worrying over it...that kept me from conceiving, but once I stopped worrying over it I got pregnant right away. Good luck!

I think you made the right choice. Sometimes only by making peace with infertility will you get pregnant. It sounds crazy, but I've heard of it working many times. Or of women that adopt and later have natural children after trying so hard for a long time. Adoption or foster care might be a good option. There are alot of babies and children out there that desperately need parents and love. Its worth a thought.

My husband and I tried and tried. And we were getting pressure from family and friends, then after about 2 years, people seemed to forget about it, and we also seemed to just get on with life, not worrying about timing with ovulation and stuff like that, and guess what!
2 months later we found out we are going to be having a baby in July 07!
My mum is a massive believer that the more you want it and stress over it, the less it will happen, and for us, that really seemed to be the case!

I know you probably won't want to read this but my parents tried for a baby for 17 years and finally had me. I realize that is a very very very long time to wait. I really hope you can get pregnant though. I am sure you will make a good mom. Best wishes.

first of all let me say i have never heard of someone trying for that long so congrats on that alone it takes alot to do that.
have you tried all your options?? i know that might sound dumb but got to ask. It is people like you that inspire people that can have children because we know that there are people out there that can't.
i say explore all your options to the last little hope, cause if you don't you may regret it in the long run.
good luck i hope it does happen for you and my heart goes out to you.

She needs to take a sex ed classification. inspite of the actuality that if the sperm survived your abdomen acid , digestive juices or filtering out out of your blood flow on your kidneys (of direction the probabilities of any of this happening is 0%) For some reason I especially doubt it will be able to swim backwards from urine up your vagina to fertilize an egg. thoroughly ridiculous. you're perfect, she is incorrect.
