Nothing Wrong
Try not to use the word wrong, it'll make you feel worse. My husband and I tried to get pregnant after my miscarriage for 9 months before I decided to go back to school and now we are trying again. There are several things I know worked against us.
1. My emotional state was like a roller coaster.
2. We were drinking a lot to dull the pain. Drinking really messes up ttc.
3. Because of the drinking my fertility signs were way off so we probably didn't time it right.

On every board that talks about this I put in my 2 cents... Quit drinking while ttc and until after you nurse. Even a little can screw you over if you have even marginally low fertility. Even for me. And now smoking or drugs, esp for the man, it can mess up sperm count.

Trying to Get Preg.
Well maybe your just putting too much stress on you self by tyring to get preg. Pregnancy cause for patience. You and your mate need to focus on eachother. When you make love and not think of it as your trying to get pregnant your hormones will act properly. When your trying to have a baby and your not enjoying the love making your taking away from your hormone level. You need to not plan it, make love, and just know it will happen soon. :)

Actually I agree w/ you. I wasn't thinking about that but it got to the point we were baby making and not love making... That is also very bad for your marriage. Ask youself which you want more, a baby or a good marriage.
