it's been 7 years since I've had a child, have now been trying for a yr and nothing. what can i do to get pregnant?

[welshlibranr]

jenn, if it;s meant to be, then it will happen!............trying too hard is not the way!........go with the flow!.........enjoy eacg other, then it will happen!...............

[jenn1121]

welshlibranr, we have been trying for a whole year and always get excited when the period is late. and nothing. I have taken diferent things already am starting to get depress. we both are able to have kids.

can i ask how old you are?
as i know fertility dips after around 35/36 i believe.

Why don't you just enjoy trying and not think of it as just a means to an end. If you relax and forget about it, it will eventually happen.

[jenn1121]

Kerriesmum, Im 23 and I dont believe I think so much of it at the time...

Jenn1121 - you are 23 - have had a child - what's the problem? they don't come just when you decide they should come - forget about 'trying for a child' for a while - you have years ahead of you - the time to worry is when you are forty! - enjoy you hubby/partner to the full, forget about getting pregnant and before you know it you will be. Relax - good luck

ok so my first question is how often are you doing it?
second question - are both of you as well as you can be? Are you overweight? do you smoke? do you drink?

[JonnyBoy12]

It is 7 years since you had a child, and you are now 23? You must have had the first one very young then.

[jenn1121]

To the last 2 answers; yes i had my lil one young. no i dont drink smoke, and am a lil bit over weight, if gone to the dr and theysay that doesnt make a diference. so i think ill take their advice and relax again. :(

[bednobs]

i beg to differ, being overweight can affect your fertility AND the health of any child you may conceive

[bednobs]

ps, those questions need to apply to both of you

You said on this other thread last night that you have no relatives or friends where you are living now - may I ask, who therefore are you trying with....? http://www.theanswerb.../Question1028039.html

It will happen. The more you worry about it the less it is likely to happen. I think for now just enjoy practicing thats the best part. lol
