Norma - Keep in mind it takes the average couple up to 8 months to conceive. Dr's don't recommend you even see an RE until you've been trying for a year. Good luck to you. I do understand how you feel. There are things you can do to help conceive. Have you been charting your temp to pinpoint your day of ovulation? Have you taken opk's? There are sexual position you can use to help... There are many things you can do. Around O time don't have sex every day. Make it every other day so you build up his sperm count...

Hi Heather,
I have used the ovulation calendar method, i have regular periods. when making have sex i always get my partner to be on top and i make sure that i wait for an hr to get out of bed. i have sex every other day aswel, what is opks

I have been TTC for a year. I know your frustration, but like Heather said it can take awhile. I am regular too. Don't put so much pressure on yourself. Try to have fun and make it relaxing. I know it's hard but put some romance into TTC. I have been using the Clearblue easy O kit. It's $200, but worth it. It tells you when you get LH surge right around O. I know it's hard not to count down and when you get your AF it just stinks. But just try to stay positive.You have to have a healthy postive attitude for you and for your partner. Good Luck! Keep in touch.

Norma - This sounds stupid but seriously... Have you ever put a pillow under your hips? Or tried the "doggie style" position? Some people say it is better. I would still chart my temp if I were you... You may be regular but you may not O the day you think you do. Just a suggestion. Good luck *~*~*~*~*~

Hello Norma. I have been reading online for anykind of information I can get. One thing I read on here is that propping a pillow under your lower back while having sex might help. Also, that after sex and your partner cums, lay there with your feet propped on a pillow and do not go to pee right afterwards. I have not tried this. But, I am in the process of finding out if I am pregnant right now. I am having the signs, but took a pregnancy test this morning and it came up negative. I do not know if I took it too soon or if the test is right. I wish you the best of luck Norma.

Norma, sweety, I understand you. I am also very depresed, but I know I should relax. God does hear us and He does answer but in His timing... I will pray for you honey.

My doctor told me that it takes the average couple a year to conceive. This is when everything is working right and timing is right. I would say that you have nothing to get upset about yet. I know it is frustrating but keep smiling and try not to get too stressed. I have been ttc for almost two years so just thank your lucky starts that you are not in my position. Good luck to you and lots of baby dust.

I was told not to use too big of a pillow as the sperm can go under the cervix instead of up like they should. Also if you have a tipped uterous lie on your tummy afterwards not your back.good luck
