baddasslegend92 Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 I have been trying to get my fiance pregnant for a year and nothing yet. How long does it usually take to get pregnant? Could it be something wrong with me??? Link to comment
Ash Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 It depends on how each of you are. For some, having unprotected sex even just once at the roughly correct time in her cycle results in pregnancy. For others it can take a long time. When you consider what has to happen in order to get pregnant it's often not surprising it can take many tries. The short answer is though that sometimes there is something amiss in one of the partners causing difficulties. I wouldn't necessarily adivise running to a fertility consultant just yet, but perhaps that's something to do after you are married and settled in a bit. In the meantime there are many things you can try, do some research on the internet for sites with that info. Best thing you can do though in general is stay healthy, do a moderate amount of exercise, eat and drink properly, and get plenty of rest. Link to comment
BellaDonna Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 It's all about perfect timing- and also making sure that there are no environmental conditions that are hindering your attempts. link removed If you have both tried everything, and still cannot conceive in 6 more months, then I would suggest seeing a fertility specialist. Could it be something wrong with me??? It could be you, her, or simply the combination of the 2 of you. See link removed BellaDonna Link to comment
baddasslegend92 Posted December 17, 2007 Author Share Posted December 17, 2007 We want kids. We will be getting married next month.No rush just was curious to how long it usually takes. Link to comment
Hope75 Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 How old is your fiance? My doctor recommended that if you are over 30 years of age ( the woman) and it takes longer than 6 months to conceive, you should see a fertility specialist. Was your fiance on the pill and for how long before she came off? That can throw things off for a few months in itself while her body regulates things. Other things that can make conception difficult-- stress and trying too hard. Are you guys enjoying each other or is it all about trying to get pregnant? Link to comment
southerngirl Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 If you have already tried for a year and still no luck, I would try charting her cycle. link removed is free. It is very useful in trying to pinpoint when she is ovulating, then make sure you do it according to the directions on that site. If you do try that... Both be checked out to see if there are any possible physical things stopping it, wouldn't hurt at all. The gyno/female doc can even give her medications to boost her fertility if that is at all a factor. Good Luck! Link to comment
kyphosalq Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 I tried to get pregnant for 3 years and nothing. Then my friend from europe suggested some tea that they drink there to help with conceiving. I found the tea here and after 3 months I was pregnant. I would drink 2 cups of each Tea per day. One is called Horehound and the other one Catnip. they are super cheap like 4 bucks and u can get them online or in organic/nature stores. Give it a shot it's just a tea! Hope u get the same results as me!! Link to comment

Hope75 Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Hi There, Is she is 36 and you have been trying for a year I definitely think you should get a referral to an infertility specialist. Getting pregnant after age 35 is more difficult but still possible- but you should both have an exam and some tests done to determine if there is a problem. Link to comment
