Ask:
Well another month gone and we still are not pregnant. Of course in the scheme of things it is hard to get pregnant if you only do it once while ovulating.
How does/did everyone do it 2nd and more pregnancies? Between the heat and Chris's job and other stupid things we just can not seeem to get done what we need to while I am fertile. I am cancelling my dr appt to go on clomid until we have a few months under our belt. I don't want to waste the money - I mean why take a pregnancy drug if you are not even having sex during the fertile time.
Some advice is appreciated. The first time granted we were newly married - but we seemed to have sex all the time now we don't.
Answer:
I really have no words of wisdom.....I just remember those days so well and they were TOUGH. It took us a year to get pregnant with our first daughter, after having a misscarriage. Such a hard time for us.
Nothing is more boring than having sex because you need to, what a mood killer!
Please hang in there. It gets so difficult month after month. I'll be thinking of you!

I'm sorry I don't have a lot to add. I do know how you feel. We tried for well over a year for to get pg with my dd. Sorry things aren't going your way. Hang in there.

This is SO true! Try and not focus on having sex only during the times when magic happens! Try spicing things up during other times of the month and not dwel on things too hard. You'll end up having a spicy great time on the right night and walla!
Just remember... You don't make love to your husband just to have a baby. Your married and in love and have a wonderful relationship the baby is the icing on the cake. The baby is the product of your affections! Don't let things get boring and mundane.
Thinking of you!
Answer:
I hope you do keep trying before going on Clomid. I wrote in another post that I had had my prescription for Clomid filled, but for some reason let it sit on the kitchen counter without taking any. Within a month (?) I was pregnant. Maybe it was a subliminal message, but the fact that we weren't really thinking about getting pregnant at the time was what did it.
I know, you have to do it on the fertile days, and do try to enjoy yourself, and do whatever it takes to do it a few times during those few days...it may pay off!
For my first, I put a pillow under my butt right after making love to allow the little guys an easier swim up-stream, layed there for a little while, and voila, she'll be 4 in a couple weeks! Who knows. Could be an old wives tale, but it worked for us! Good luck!
Answer:
Just try to look at it as fun!!! I know it is hard when your have that added pressure. With my middle children, we just had sex every other day! Dh loved it!!!! I never calculated our fertile times or anything.
