I want to be a mother?
Answers:
I have been TTC for over 3 years now. Your best option: Get a thorough check-up for you and your husband by an Infertility Specialist. I found knowing what the problem is makes seeing children everyday much easier. Knowing your options makes each month and each period a little easier to deal with.
Check with your insurance carrier before your first visit to the Infertility Clinic. Some insurance companies will cover at least a portion of your visit.
Good Luck
Have you ruled out all medical reasons why you have not conceived? Where you on birth control previously? If you were you may have a hormonal imbalance which I would suggest you see a naturopath about or a qualified herbalist at a health food store. I had messed up hormones and after one month on a supplement everything was great.
I would also consider that you see an OB if things do not resolve and if you are fine then have your hubby see a urologist to rule out an issues with him.
1 year is a long time but one the other hand I know that for many it does take a year or more to conceive a baby even if both parents are completely healthy. Good luck.
The effects of stress on fertility
Many couples overlook the effect that stress and anxiety can have on fertility and pregnancy. Couples who are experiencing high levels of stress in their work or personal lives will often find it difficult to achieve a successful pregnancy. Sometimes this stress and anxiety can actually result from the desire for a baby. It is important for couples to remember that trying to get pregnant should be a joyful and exciting event, not a chore. Couples who find themselves stressed by the desire for a pregnancy would do well to take a step back, take a deep breath, relax and let nature take its course.
What is normal when trying to get pregnant
Many couples get discouraged quickly when a pregnancy is not achieved right away. It is important to remember, however, that it usually takes from six months to a year of trying for most normal couples to get pregnant. Getting discouraged can raise stress levels, which in turn will lower fertility levels. Before seeking help, or assuming that they are infertile, couples should make sure they are relaxed and as stress free as possible. It may taken many months of trying to get a successful pregnancy underway.
When to seek help with getting pregnant
Of course every couple is different, and help is sometimes needed to achieve a pregnancy. If it has been over a year and a pregnancy has not occurred naturally, it may be time to seek help. A thorough medical examination of both husband and wife will be needed in order to isolate any physical problems that could be preventing a pregnancy from occurring. In addition to a general physical exam, the husband should have a thorough sperm count done, while the wife should have a full gynecological exam.
If a problem is found
These days there are a number of techniques to allow couples with fertility problems to start their own families. From fertility enhancing drugs to test tube baby techniques to surrogate mothers, there is help available to help just about every couple achieve their dream of a house full of children.
Wishing you the best!!!!!
ALL you can do is RELAX that is the key. Try having sex every 2 days that helped me because I thought that I would NEVER conceive. BEST WISHES
