I Want a Baby.. What to Do?? Posted: 09-08-07 18:57pm
I am 19 years old and trying to get
pregnant. And have not been able to. Me
and my boyfriend try all the time. We both
want a child so bad. And I don't know what
to do.. I heard it takes a couple 12
months to have a child. I havent been on
any type of birth control in two years.
Can anyone please help me??

Chart your cycle. Most of the women here
have links to sites that can help you with
that. Yes it can take up to a year for a
healthy couple to get pregnant so don't
worry too much. Just enjoy the process!

You can try an online ovulation predictor
(google it, you'll get lots of good
results). Write down the date of the first
day of your period - it'll come in handy.
The predictor will tell you when your most
fertile days are, so you'll know to
definitely have sex on those days to
maximise your chances of getting
pregnant.
It takes a healthy couple a year to get
pregnant, because you have about a 25%
chance of hitting the jackpot each month.
It all comes down to timing - the egg in
the right spot, the sperm in the right
spot, and the fertilized egg attaching
correctly before your body flushes it out.
It can take some time for things to work
out just right. Try to be patient and
remember - making babies is supposed to be
fun! Try to keep things romantic and spicy
between you and your partner, and try not
to stress.
Good luck!

Try fertilityfriend.com or
mymonthlycycles.com
They are two good sites for tracking your
cycle.

It took me and my boyfriend 8 months to
get pregnant, we weren't trying, but we
weren't using protection either. I was
pretty much convinced that we had
fertility problems until i figured out I
was pregnant. We only had sex once the
month I concieved. I think that helped his
sperm be stronger. Don't give up and don't
be discouraged, it can take time. Charting
your ovulation wouldn't hurt either.
