as you are over 35 and have been trying for more than 6 months you can go to a doctor and get them to do fertility tests, they may find nothing wrong and you will just have to keep trying, but they may be able to help you along a little. in the mean time make sure you and your husband follow healthy diets, try to get a bit of exercise too if you dont already, give up smoking and alcohol if applicable, he can stick with caffine but you should try to give it a miss, get some prenatal vits so when you do get pregnant you have all the vits and minerals in your system, and get some zinc in your man, it helps his sperm. above all, i know its easier said than done (struggling with this part myself!) try to relax about it, make sex fun and not just a way to make a baby.
good luck.

i'm afraid that u have a lot of things working against u here, but i don't think that your weight is the major problem. all i can suggest is that u keep on trying, and if after another 6 months u still haven't conceived, then have a talk with your doctor. there might be things that they can suggest or medication they can give u that would increase your chances of becoming pregnant. (your husband will need checking out too, diabetes can effect fertility. my ex had type 1 diabetes, and as a result of that was infertile...) good luck.

If you are over 35 and have been trying for 6 months you should go to your GP for tests.
Good luck x
