    I know how you feel, my hubby and I have been TTC since Oct. 2007 and still nothing has happened, we have both been checked out my an infertility dr. and he doesn't see anything that should be keeping up from getting pregnant but it is just not happening.

    When things get tough we just have to keep the faith that God has a plan for us all and in His time He will bless us with a baby and until then we will count the blessings He has already given us like each other, family and friends.

    Most Dr.'s won't consider fertility meds. until 1 year of TTC, if you make it to that 1 year mark talk to your dr. about clomid, it helps you ovulate and has a great success rate. Also try the clearblue fertility monitor, it is not the cheapest thing but I have had several friends use it to help pinpoint ovulation and they got pregnant within a couple months.

    Many Blessings to You!

    I know how you feel it took me 5 years to get pregnant with number one and I have been trying for number 2 for 2 years now (I have pcos though) but I know how depressing it can be when everyone around you is pregnant and your still waiting. But you and hubby need to see a doctor and get some tests done so you can find out if there is anything wrong, and try using ovulation tests so you at least when your most fertile times are. Hang in there it will happen :)

  • I feel the same way, and i'm so glad someone understands how i feel. But i feel hope and reassurance when i hear of peoples success stories. I have irregular periods, i'm 26 and thin. so i don't know what's up with my body, but i know i have ovulated in the past as i have used ovulation tests and got a positive one. so that's a plus there.

    But we have been ttc # 1 since april 2009. Everyone around me is pregnant or has already had babies, it's heartbreaking to watch and realise it's still not u yet.

    I have decided if i'm still not pregnant by the end of october i will go to the doctor about it, and ask for something to help me ovulate/ conceive.

    Good luck to you and baby dust.

    Well you have been trying 8 months and even though you don't want to hear it, you have not been trying long. You just started. The fact that you see all these ladies pregnant stresses you out and make you want to get pregnant immediately. The key is to relax. Sounds like everything is okay so don't worry. give it a few more months, eat healthy. If nothing happens then you can go see your doctor and discuss. Pregnancy takes a little bit of a patience but when it happens its all worth it.

    Have you tried using the ovulation estimaters they have out now? Im not sure how accurate they are though, their in the same section as the strips that test for yeast infections.

    I deffinately agree with the other person, go to your doctor, they can do all types of tests! And IF their is something wrong, theres plenty of ways to aid in pregnancy, just dont take too many fertility pills and end up like kate gosselin ;)

    Good Luck!

    All you have to do is take Folic Acid 400mg. You can buy it at walgreens or cvs. It was very hard for me to get pregnant and at times I wanted to give up, until I meet a nurse that told me to take the over the counter pills with milk every morning 2 months. In 3 months, I found out I was 6 weeks pregnant. The pills help strength your ovaries and help you get pregnant easier.

    The women who have answered before me have had it tough. I wish all of you the best of luck.

    I do know how they feel though. When I had my miscarriage, I went to a command in the Navy where almost all Pacific fleet ITs go when they get pregnant. There were pregnant women every where, and I was empty. Almost every week, there would be a new pregnant girl. The only thing you can do, is soldier on. Lean on your husband on your husband. It's okay to feel jealous, just try and not let it consume you.

    my fren is going thru the exact same thing. she and her hubby went for a check-up (everything, blood test, semen, scans etc) and everything is normal.

    she also did all the BBT, ovluation prediction strips etc but didn't get pregnant (before the checkup). i strongly advise her and you to monitor CM, i think it is by far the most accurate method. i used this method and now have 2 boys. bit of history of myself, i am working shifts (imagine i am working NITE on my fertile days!!!) and has medical condition that will reduce my chances of pregnancy.

    almost gave up, but decided to trust, pray and believe that i will be a mother. once you are not mentally stressed everything will fall into place.

  • I think they probably won't do fertility testing on you until you've been trying for 1+ year. Until then try to focus on something else, work or a hobby and just stay positive.
