some people even waited longer...some are 7 yrs, some are 6 yrs. just wait for your turn...but if you wanna get pregnant, start being healthy now...i mean stay away from cigarettes and too much caffeine...eat fruits and vegetables, get complete rest, exercise and take vitamins...so by the time you get pregnant, you and your baby is healthy...

It was like 3 years before my fiance & I concieved. My mom was telling me that it took her 5 years before she got pregnant with me... Maybe it just takes longer with some couples, but I would cut down on the smoking & drinking. You are going to have to when you are pregnant anyway, so why not get a head start, right?

its more of an individual thing,
my partner and i smoke, drink ( i didnt while pregnant) cant go a day without atleast 2 cups of coffee, 3 in winter, i've been pregnant 4 times in 6 years...
were you taking contraception? if so how long for?
if in doubt you both can always get ferility tests

took me for years. I drink but do not smoke.
I went to see the gynecologist. My husband and I are whats called sub fertile. We both have faults, but can have children. We were told to use the mucus method. Pretty disgusting but it worked after just 2 months.
When ovulating check your mucus (not up your nose) if it is the consistency of egg white (raw) you are most likely to get pregnant. Sperm need a gooey consistency to swim through.

I have heard many people complain about not being able to concieve, so it is not that uncommon. Your best bet is if you are worried go and see your family doctor to make sure neither one of you are sterile. Also, they may reccommend where you can get help to help prevoke the pregnancy.

There could be something wrong with you or your man. It could be his sperm. I recommend you both go and sekk medical help from your GP and find out why cenception and pregnancy if constantly failing.
