Okay, I am new to the baby making process. I am going to be 30 just got married and we have been trying to get pregnant for the past four months. There is so much information on the internet I dont know what is true and what is false.. All I know is that I never knew it was so hard to get pregnant... I just thought we would have sex and I would be pregnant. For the first month I purchased an ovluation kit, we had intercourse exactly when we were suppose to and nothing. I must have purchased 10 pregnancy tests the first month hoping one of them would be positive. The second month I insisted on having intercourse 7 days straight so as to maximize our chances... I have to tell you it was painful and a hugh project,still no baby. I dont want to really tell anyone we are trying because if it doesnt happen i will have to explain to everyone. I just have to vent my frustrations. As soon as I get my period both my husband and I are so depessed. It seems like everyone around us is pregnant or just had a baby. Now we are both questioning our fertility. Maybe there is something with me or him. Everyone tries to tell me to not think about it so much but Ive been with my husband for 13 years, endured seven years of college and law school, and we are finally married and trying to have a family and its not happening. Thanks anyone, for listening!
