Is it ever gonna happen?Me and my husband have been together almost 3 years, married 7 months. For the last 2 years of the 3 we've been together, we haven't used protection. We aren't exactly TRYING to have children at the moment, but I don't understand why I haven't got pregnant by now. I don't always have regular periods. But, my mother had 3 children, and she never had regular periods before. I know that everyone is different, and I am young. But if I weren't ever able to concieve, I would absolutely die. What can I do for help on this?? Anyone know? Brandi Cunningham Mitchell 10 years of wonderingWell first off let me say this IM NOT MARRIED. Im 27 years old and have tried to get pregnant a number of times and have gotten everything else but pregnant. Im HIV negative and do not have herpes. But i have had chylmadia 3 times and gonerrhea 1 time and all these STD's happen before the age of 22. So that tells you what path i was on and not loving myself and where that got me. So now at 27 im in a serious relationship and have a good job with great benefits and im in the military(9 years) so i have great insurance. I went to my OB/ gyn and she said everything was normal and she wanted me to go to an infertility doctor. So i went and she did all kinds of blood work and also had me come in on the 2nd day of my cycle and everything was normal. But when i stepped into her office and told her that i had a long history of STD's she came to the conclusion that i have a uterine issue. I was suprised because i had a HSG done and that was normal. But she explained to me that she was a specialist and knew what to look for. She gave me a sono and showed me the scar tissue it looked like lines of string. So make a long story short she says i need to get laporoscopy to remove scar tissue, but my boyfriend needs to get a semen analysis before i get surgery and i completely agree. I also need to be his wife before i go under the knife to concieve a child because we both want kids. Does anybdoy have any info on laporoscopy? Brandi Cunningham Mitchell Trying to ConceiveMy husband and I have been trying to conceive for 3 years now. I am 26 years old and my huband is 27. But it been very hard and we both have been disappointed when we both goes to my OB/GYN doc. Dr.Price prescribe some clomid medication and want me to start charting my temperature and cervical mucous. I have tired everything so far, but I'm getting a little frustrated. I went to Wal-Mart to buy some geritol liquor to see will it help. I only been taking it about a week now and hopefully something happen after I finish taking it. I don't have a regular menstrual period every month. But I want to know if I'm drinking green tea and gertiol will help me conceive.For all the couples who are trying to conceive don't get discourage!!!!! Pray for us and we will always keep you all in our prayer...... If something happen I wiill posted something Kendra Our New AdventureMy dh and I have been trying to have a lil one for 4 yrs. This past year we where in a postion to seek a fertility specialist in Jacksonville, Fl. After 1 test they determined it was the dh-antibodies attacking the sperm. Only 5-8% of men are diagnosed w/this. After months of meeting w/dr.'s, paper work- I am finally on our 1st step to starting IVF. Tomorrow I start the lupron, Wed I have my IVF start date. Can't explain how nervous I am.Jana Roberts Staying strongWell, i can kind of relate i guess. My hubby and i have been ttc for almost 2 years. Thats a long time, but not as long as others stories here. I love kids and have wanted one for the longest time. Ever since i had irregular periods ever since i can remember, i had a feeling i wont be able to have kids or it was going to be a rough road. Now, that i've been ttc, i wish i would have started way sooner if i knew i couldn't. My hubby loves kids also and it breaks my heart everytime we talk about having kids and doing this and that with them. We have a 1 year old nephew which we spoil so much. His sister is only 18 and i envy her cus the fact she had this cute lil boy by accident and is now planning on having another after graduating h.s. And i ask God that how come my hubby and i are more stable than they are and yet, we are planning out our life and can't finish it. It makes me sad everytime i watch my nephew and everytime i see a preggie woman. But im just trying not to let it bring me down, even tho it makes me ball my eyes out when my hubby leaves to work. But im going to stay strong and thigs happen for a reason. Just got to live my life. I got my hubby loving me and if thats all Gods going to give me, its still the greatest thing Gods given me.
