I can't get pregnant

IF U THINK SOMETHING MIGHT WRONG IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO GO TO THE DR. I THOUGHT THE SAME THING AND THE DR SAID THAT IT WAS HORMONAL SO SOMETHING WAS WRONG. I HOPE U GET UR BUNDLE OF JOY SOON. IF I WAS U I WOULDNT WASTE ANYMORE TIME JUST "THINKING SOMETHING MIGHT BE WRONG" AND I WOULD GET MY BUTT TO THE DR. AND FIND OUT WHAT IS GOING ON, THATS IF U REALLY WANT THIS...
I WAS PRESCRIBED CLOMID SO NOW I AM WAITING TILL THE END OF JULY TO SEE IF IT WORKED.

GOOD LUCK AND KEEP US UPDATED.

i had unprotected sex for 6 months before i ended up pregnant
everyone is different...and your time will eventually come.
how old are you and do they know what caused the misscarriage?

I can understand your pain. I have been off birth control for 6+ years and haven't been doing anything to prevent it, but it still hasn't happened.
The thing is though, you said you haven't been trying, just not protecting. There is a big difference. You are more than likely not having sex at the right times. You need to bd every other day around your fertile time which is when you ovulate. Do you keep track of your cycles? Do you know when you ovulate? These things you need to know in order to achieve pregnancy.
I believe that the doctor will not even refer you to a specialist until you have been actively trying for 1 year. Not just hit and miss trying, but actually trying around your fertile time.

If you don't already, I would suggest that you try temping your basal body temperature. That way you will really learn your body's cycle and when you ovulate. Also I would suggest that you try using ovulation predictor kits. They are a good way to know when you will ovulate.

Don't stress to much over it, just try your timing. We are here if you need to talk.

Thanks ladys:) They said the miscariage was caused by some hormone problem( honestly i kind of forget because it was a year and a half ago ) i also around then was cheerleading, and i didnt know i was pregnant, and my heart rate was up a lot of the time, and i found out that that was dangerous, and also ( because i didnt know ) i was stunting and catching my flyer and she hit my stomic not hard, but maybe it was hard enough.... The baby died at 5 weeks and i was almost 8 weeks.

And im supposed to ovulate Next thursday through monday, which is unhelpful because my boyfriend is going to Canada:(

By the way, when i found out i was pregnant i stopped cheerleading. It was horrible 2, because we decided to keep the baby on New Years and then 2 weeks later i got the bleeding It was the worst couple months of my life. Im scared it will happen again. Im eating healthy right now to, im a vegatarian, and im taking vitamins, and having no caffine, eating whole weat and vegtables.....

Good luck! I hope it works out for you. I started taking multi-vitamins a few months ago because i heard about needing folic acid, but I would have a hard time giving up caffeine. Plus, I would not be able to be a vegetarian.

haha, ive been a vegetarian for 12 years.. i dont like meet and fish. Now should i go to the doctor and get folic acid, or can you just go and get it from the store?

I think as long as you take a vitamin that has 100% folic acid then you should be fine. Some doctors can give you prenatal vitamins, but I don't know what the difference is between prenatal and multi-vitamins. Shouldn't it be the same?

Hmmm, which vitamins do you take????? I just got some new vitamins with Calcium and Vitamin D, and another with Vitamin C and euthanisa(sp). Do you have any recomindations about good meds with folic acid...?

A 100% for a pregnant woman is different than a 100% for an average woman or an average person. I'd compare your multi to a prenatal to see whether your multi has the same stuff in it. Also, check for 800mcg of folic acid in the vitamins. My dr said that not all pre-natals have 800 mcg, so be careful.

Some multis, such as my dh's heart healthy multi, have folic acid in them as well, so just check the label to see whether your's has enough.

I agree with Star about the temping and opk. They give you information on your body and can help your dr figure out if something is wrong.

Temping? (im new @ this haha) When would you recommend in the day to do this?

You take your temp with a special bbt thermometer after you wake up but before you get out of bed. For me this is after the alarm goes of during either the first or second snooze. It took a week or two to get into the habit but then its a reflex to grab it as you hit the snooze button.

You then chart your temp over the month. It changes by about 1/2 a degree based on your hormone levels. If your hormone levels are normal then your temp will be low following af, rise the day after ovulation, and stay high until af.

I use a service called fertility friend to electronically chart my temps and share my chart with others: http://www.fertility friend.com/home/17d324. (Ignore this month and last b/c I didn't temp while on vacation so I didn't have any temps to fill in.)

Thank you, where would you get the thermometer? Just like a normal one from CVS or, just a normal house hold thermometer.

You can get a bbt thermometer at any drug store. You need to make sure it is a bbt one, because it measures more accurately. Usually on the front of the package, you will see a picture of a baby I just saw them at Walmart last night right by the pharmacy. It is important to try to take your temperature at or around the same time in the morning.

I personally get up with the alarm, go straight for the bathroom which is 5 steps away and take my temp while I pee. I personally can't sit in bed waiting for the thermometer....I usually have to run to the potty! I think that my method is OK??? I do it at the same time and always after I walk into the bathroom. I think that as long as you do it at the same time everyday, you will be ok. Am I right shorty or anyone else????

I checked online and Viactiv only has 400 mg of folic acid. I should have listen to my gyno nd went to him before i wanted to get pregnant so that he could give me some prenatals.

Thank you ladies

I just discovered a walmart near me... haha.

I kinda feel like im ovulating today.... Im really "ready" if you no what i mean. Weird.....

I dont feel crampy though ( i cant say i ever do though ). Maybe its because ive never really paid attension. Hmmm....

Does that sound like ovulation? I re-searched and it said nothing about it.
