How long have you been trying?
Your situation sounds like mine 4 years
ago. I had my first when I was 18,
married at 19. We started trying a month
before we married and we didn't succeed
for 15 months. I had multiple test done,
and in the end I found out that my tubes
were blocked.....Have you seen your
doctor?

About 2-3 months.. We just got married
nov. 19 but have been trying since before
then. I am 19 now.. I havent seen my
doctor only because up until the wedding I
did not have insurance and couldnt afford
it.. I am sure that we will end up
pregnant eventually, its just a matter of
timing I guess.. Thanks for your input it
helps to have someone to talk to

We did a lot of moving the last 4 months
so my period would come every month, it
just didnt come the same time of month
every time.. Now for the last 2 months
they have been regular.. I just wish that
it would happen sooner.. We are ready to
increase the size of our family.. :)

Hi there! Quit trying so much to have

happen.
Good luck and baby dust to you all!

Yeah tell me about it!! I had our first
when I was 16 and he 18.. We both were in
high school and did not want a kid.. It
was all about the sex at the time.. And
then we had her.. The most beautiful baby
we could make..!! And now she is almost 3
and we just really want to finish having
kids while we are young so we are not 60
yrs old when our youngest is 18.. Lol
thank you for your help!!

Hello! The best time to conceive is
around the 14th day of your cycle this is
roughly when you ovulate. 3 months really
isnt that long but I know how frustrating
it is! We are trying for our third baby,
dont know if this was any help but good
luck to you!

The day your period starts is day one, so
its roughly 14 days after that. You can
buy tests in the chemist that can tell you
when you are ovulating if you are not
sure. Just keep trying around this time!
Wishing you the best of luck! Let me know
how it goes. :)

If you take robitussin (plain) it will
thin all of your mucus , including your
cervical mucas . I would take it right
before and during ovulation, at least a
half hour to and hour before sex. It can
help those spermies swim!
And dont worry, 2-3 months isnt bad.
Did you know that an average fertile
couple ttc only has about a 20-30% chance
each month of conceiving??! So try to
relax, it will happen!

Hi lilypad, thanks for the tips.
Is that the cough syrup that you are
referring to?
I am having problem trying to detect if I
am ovaluating or not. I checked my mucus
on the 14th day onwards and have varying
results. It is always pretty dry. The
test kits are always negative. Can you
explain the reason?

yes the plain robitussin it thins out all
secretions even though its mainly used for
a stuffy nose. Cant hurt. Also drinking
plenty of water is good. But avoid lubs
they can harm sperm unless its a special
kind

I dont know if I am late yet or not.. I
want to tak a test but I want one that
will give me the best results considering
that I should be getting my period now..
Either that or 4 days ago.. I just dont
know.. Which test can tell you before you
have missed your period?? Should I even
bother taking a test yet or should I wait
another week?? This is so edging.. I
just want to know, but I dont want to take
a test to get my period that same day or a
few days later.. Someone please help.. I
need some advice..
