Hello Wendy,

I hope you’re pregnant! I’ll send fertility and pregnancy prayers your way….

After your period is a week late, then it’s time for a pregnancy test. Let me know how it goes!

Hi Pamela,

If you’ve been trying to get pregnant for two years and nothing has happened, it means that you and your partner need to get checked for possible causes of infertility!

Go see your doctor, my friend. Get a few basic fertility tests done, and take it one step at a time…

Blessings,
Laurie

Pamela ~ Congratulations on having your first child 3 years ago — I join you in thanking God! About trying to get pregnant again, I encourage you to talk to your obgyn or a fertility doctor. I don’t know how long you’ve been trying to get pregnant, but remember that it’s normal to take up to a year to conceive. If it’s been less than a year, then keep trying with the ovulation tests and healthy living. Let me know how it goes!

Karen ~ Yes, tenderness and cramps could be a sign of pregnancy….but the only thing you can do is keep waiting and praying. I sure hope you are…have you taken a pregnancy test?

Blessings,
Laurie

Hi, I have been trying for about 4 months now, still not pregnant. I am TTC. I have ovulated on Nov.6th and Nov. 7th. Right after that I have been having mild cramps and breast tenderness. What does that mean? Can I be pregnant?

Griezl ~ Yes, you still have hope for getting pregnant! The first thing you need to do is quit smoking and drinking — same with your husband. Next, you need to learn about your ovulation cycle so you know when you’re most fertile. And finally, remember that it takes most couples a year on average to get pregnant. Five months isn’t that long…so keep trying!

Tanya ~ I encourage you to see a fertility doctor or ob/gyn. It’s great that you don’t have any blockages, but there may be other reasons you’re not getting pregnant. And, it’s a good idea for your partner to have his sperm checked.

Jane – Definitely, use the ovulation predictor kit! That’s one of the best ways to get pregnant successfully. If you can’t get pregnant after a year of trying, then it’s time to see a doctor.

Remember, it takes most couples a year on average to get pregnant….it seems like a long time, but it’s normal to take a year!

Blessings,
Laurie

Hello
Me and my partner have been trying for a baby for the last 8 months of so. My periods are really regular and on time every month and get really depressed about it, as time goes by im starting to get more worried about this. Before I met my partner I did take the morning after pill twice with previous partners. I also had a irregular smear test result but i went for tests but it turned out to be very mild and was fine. Im 25 and my partner is 24, and my weight is 7 and a half stone but i do find im a healthy girl and so is my partner, we used to have intecourse 4 times a week but now its once or twice a week as we find it impossible. I did buy an ovulation kit but I have not used it yet. Hope you can advise us
