    Hi Sunny1223- I felt like this back in February. Had been trying since a m/c back in September. So I decided to change my focus and look for a new job. I felt that working where I did was holding me back. As soon as I took my eye off the ball, things began to change. I got the new job, I also sold my house, I also bought a new house and I also found out I was pregnant. All in the space of two weeks. I hadn't given up, just changed my focus and was feeling a lot better in myself. Hope this helps image Good luck!

    Hi sunny, welcome to the boards. There are some fantastic girls on here who are all very supportive of each other and i really feel like i belong to a cyber family image Getting pregnant is such a lottery and not the "piece of cake" that everyone assumes it is. We spend so much time trying not to get pregnant and then it seems like we cant get pregnant when we want to image You will probably get so much good advice but the best advice is to count the days to when the average lady ovulates. The first day of your period is day one. If you have a regular 28 day cycle, you are more likely to ovulate around day 14. To maximise your chances, give your oh the best time from days 11 to 17 which should hit the right day. Some people try the "sex every other day" method throughout the month and that can work well as you are likely to hit the right time. One word of caution, women dnt ovulate every month so dont be dispondent if your period arrives (or af as it is referred to on here). Even the most fertile of couples can take qite a few months to hit the jackpot. So my advice is to relax as much as you can, really enjoy the fun of trying so it stays natural and doesnt become like a chore or a goal! Wishing you and your oh the very best of luck and we are all here in the same boat so come and have a chat, rant, moan, laugh or whatever with this wonderful bunch of girls. Take good care, lots of love, bluebird xxxx
