Hi iam from german my english is not so good, my husband and i we have wait three years. And now we have a baby it is a girl her name is Anabell.
You dont think if you make sex with your husband " i will a baby, i will a baby". You must think" it is okay if i get a baby now and if not get a baby now it is okay too".
I know it is realy heavy ( hard ). You can pray to god, you can says him all your wishes.
i think on you

by then

Sometimes it just takes awhile. But if you think something may be wrong, why not see a fertility doctor and get checked out. If he tells you nothing is wrong, it will ease your mind. And if he does find a problem, maybe there will be a treatment for whatever it is. Good luck to you.

Yea, if you can't seem to have one after a lot of trying, both should get tested at a clinic, as a precaution.

There are also some herbal treatments to increase your fertility, but you should speak to your doctor about that stuff.

There is a ovulation calculator on the babycenter website http://www.babycenter.com/calculators/ovulation/

You just enter the day you started your last period and tell them how long your cycle usually lasts. From this information, they can tell you when you're most likely to be fertile over the next 6 months. Worth a shot, especially since you really haven't been trying that long. If that doesn't help, then you should definitely see a fertility specialest.

In a lot of cases the couple are simply trying to hard and over thinking having a baby. My advice to you is just relax, enjoy each other and let nature take it's course. It will happen when you least expect it to.

Half a year is not really very long at all. Some couples are married for years before they manage to conceive. Have you tried using an ovulation kit? That might help you to find the best time to try to conceive.

I agree with you.

TheNanna got it right, stop trying so hard and just enjoy the process. Give it a year, if you're still not "with child", then consider going to a fetility clinic. You really can't rush these things.

The majority of couples with no fertility issues get pregnant within a year. If you're under 30, your doctor if probably not going to rush to perform a bunch of tests and your insurance company is not going to want to pay for them. I know six months seems like a long time. I know. It seemed like a long time for us too six-and-a-half years ago.
