I ordered this exact book and received it on Thursday. I have only read the first 5 chapters and I already know more about my body than I had before! I hope this helps in our journey! good luck
what book?
I know I am only 20 but I also know that is when you are the most likely to get preg. Ive been married now for 2 years and my hubby and I have been trying to conceive for one year. Ive been taking these fertility pills for about 2 months now and everyone on the reviews were saying they got preg after 3 months of taking them. We will see if its true for me! It has helped A LOT with my severe cramping and it helped regulate my period too. Heres where my frustration lies, it seems like every girl I knew in high school has atleast one child (out of wedlock) and I am married with God as our center and I just cant get preg! Another thing is all these women getting abortions when I am dying to have a child! WHY!?! Err...
I also hate how everywhere I go I see pregnant women and women with babies all over!!
I know exactly how you feel its very frustrating to see other people pregnant when they dont want to be and sit here waiting for your turn, sometimes I think maybe I shouldve tried before I got married because doing it in the 'right' order isnt working out... But, we just have to keep faith and once it does happen itll mean all the more
I understand your frustration with seeing other people not really worthy of having kids because they do not really care for them as well as the whole abortion thing. My sister is going through the same this you guys are. She has irregular cycles and her husbands sperm has curled tails. She has been trying for three years now and no luck. I am sure that your body will adjust to the medication and you will get pregnant soon. Do not frustrate yourself too much about it, also are you taking you prenatal vitamins since you know you want to get pregnant?
I know by taking them early it helps you body a little bit more in preparing for the baby as well as gives them the nutrients they need earlier in the growth process. This is why I believe I have had the luck that I did. I am slightly irregular, but had been on birth control for a long time. I stopped taking them DEC 22 and it can take 1 to 2 months for the pills to get out of the system. I immediately started taking my prenatal vitamins so that I could start storing in hopes of getting pregnant. The first month went by and I could tell I was still getting rid of the pill. I also would after my cycle have sex with my husband every other day. This allowed for better chances depending on when I would ovulate.
Thank you. Yes I am taking prenatals. I think the hardest part of trying to get preg and failing is really believing youre preg then finding out your not. Its harder to go through everytime. People think Im preg because Im cramping, missed period, taking the pills, and other things. But I dont want to take another test because Im scared. =(
Congrats!
There are a few years inbetween me and my other half we have been trying for about 2 yrs at the end of jan i went to the OBGYN found out that i dont ov properly so im on meds now we are sent up to get my other half checked this week if the meds are working correctly we should be about to conceive around feb 14 its all up in the air wish me luck and i wish everyone else luck
So I'm new, here's a little history... My husband and I have been married for 6 years, we have been through three miscarriages the last of which two months ago, and one adoption of our son, who is now three. Even though I love my son with all my heart, I still want one that is "my own". I don't think I'll ever not want it. However since our last miscarriage, more and more I want nothing to do with my husband in the bedroom...now that's not gonna get us a baby now is it?! Maybe I can be like Mary, imaculate conception? hmmm...
My partner and I are going to start trying in 2 months. We have been tracking her cycle and have a donor ready. Anyone have experience in Artificial Insemination?
We have been trying to get pregnant for 7months, and ever since Ive had irregular cycles, after blood tests and my husband's test, its decided that I do not ovulate normally, starting tomorrow I am going on clomid which will help me ovulate and hopefully conceive its really been a rollercoaster ride every month and its started to get to us. but i am very optimistic this time around and pray that this is the answer and help we needed
I've been tracking my ovulation for three months so far, (on the fourth month now...day 16, and still nothing...) and am getting more blood work done; scheduled follow-up appointment with my OB/GYN to review results of both my, and my husband's tests...
Ok so i am waiting till my period is suppose to come, looks like in one more week! I hope it does not come! This will be my second but they will be 7 yrs a part. I just hope it happens right away, it seems like everyone at work is getting pregnant and i want to be SO bad!!!
I am SO with you. I will send good vibes your way from The Big Guy.
Good luck and I'll pray for an answer for you! Going through this is definitely tough and a relationship. Plus, you seem to notice EVERYONE getting pregnant! What is up with that?!
My husband and I have been trying for a year and a half and are now getting bloodwork done to figure out why we're not pregnant yet. My cycles are pretty regular, yet they keep coming. Every time I get my period, I think, "dammit!"
Later this month, I get my second round of bloodwork done. I just don't want to spend years waiting...My husband turns 40 next year. It's time.
My husband and I have been trying since Oct 07. I have never had "regular" cycles. May 2008 I had to have a large cyst removed. Since then I have found a "regular" cycle. However, after several visit's with the fertility doctor we determined that my eggs weren't releasing. The Dr. is recommending that I give myself a hormone shot to help my body release the egg. It is just so expensive...I am only 28, should I go that route, or be patient and leave it at God's will?
I think you'd do best to ask Him. :)

My wife and I tried for a very long time as well. We gave up and began looking into adoption. With the added pressure off of both of us we lived happier and now have a beautiful little girl. Thing is this, your body creates hormones as you stress which may weaken your chances of becoming pregnant. The inexpensive way to control hormones is to try and relax and with a little hope and prayer I wont doubt this will be your year.
WHile stress isn't always the thing keeping you from getting pregnant.....I will say that after many stressful months following the loss of a pregnancy, I finally handed my worries and stress over to my Doctor ( fertility specialist)....he told me to do it...said "you stop worrying about this, because now I'm on the clock and it's my job to worry about and fix" I did what he said.....and before my next cycle, I was pregnant on my own without treatment.....just because I released the stress....I really believe this!!!

I took 3 1/2 years after our first child for my husband to agree for a second. I am excited and at the same time hoping I do not start my cycle. I have been on birth control for those past years and have read it can take up to 3 months to concieve; However, the birth control I was on said that it can make you more fertal. I have been staying healthy and have lost 8lbs in hopes this helps for the long run of getting pregnant. I stopped the pill Dec 20th and my doctor said I should start after the 18th of this month. I hope I don't.
I have cholesterol problems and I am trying to lose some weight I have always been tiny until about 4n years ago when I move to U.S.A so I am trying to be in shape to have a healthy pregnancy I just stop taking the pills so we will see what happens.
I hope everything goes well for you. Cholesterol is a bummer. Have you talked to a doctor about what you can do to get it down so you and your to be pregnancy will be a safe one? I know by cutting out fast foods, saturated fats, and eating less fats from meat, dairy and eggs are supposed to help lower the bad cholesterol and raise the good. Try taking your prenatal vitamins now as well.
I have some health issues to attend to before trying with my husband... but we want to try and soon
I will help in anyway I can to support you in this dare. I will practice being a grand mother.
Day 26 of 30 - took a test this morning. It was defective. So frustrating. Can't wait for the waiting to be over.
good luck

A friend of mine recommended this book that I am finding very helpful. She said it was recommended to her by her doctor and that it aided in her getting pregnant. She now has a little baby girl. The book can come with computer software which is also incredibly helpful. I just started reading it and am very optimistic.
