I agree that the process should be fun, but there is a point where you need to seek help from a specialist. I get so tired of people telling me to "stop trying and it will happen" because, for me, it won't. It is near impossible for me to get pregnant without medical intervention. Don't worry about taking other people's advice. Do what is right for you and your partner and don't give up hope.

I agree with the not trying. I tried for 5 months and ended up too stressed then one month after just going with the flow I got pregnant!

Track your periods/ovulation and TRY PRE SEED!

It will happen when you both relax about it. Don't let sex be a chore, have fun with it and get into it. The more you stress and obsess over it, the harder it will be to get pregnant. Don't put so much pressure on it. You don't know how many times I heard, "We gave up trying and just said if it happens, it happens. That's when we got pregnant." Myself included!! Also my husband got on Fertilaid (which increases the sperm count) and we got pregnant that month. Before we decided to stop actively trying to get pregnant, having sex turned into a chore and I just wanted it over with as soon as possible. I finally learned to relax, exercise more and enjoy that time with my husband and it finally happened. Focus on other things other than just getting pregnant, enjoy life, and it will happen!!

Get the Kindara app. It tracks your periods, and ovulation. I knew I was pregnant before a test(well suspected) because you can track your temp and it never went down like it should after ovulation. It goes up at ovulation, then down. You also keep track of vaginal discharge so you know when it's the best time to have sex. I say track for a few months like I did, then when you're ready to try, do it on the days that are the best times! You will know. It's all about learning about your own body and not stressing.

as much as you will get tired of hearing it, relax have fun and quit 'trying'. that's how it happened for us. we had a go with the flow cycle since I messed up my Clomid days and that's when i got pregnant.

Eat healthy, remove or minimize processed foods from your diet, drink lots of water, exercise, detox your body twice a year and have faith. Organize your life and finances to prepare for baby, you'll be thankful you did! @preggie_usa

Everyone says that "when it's meant to happen it will" or "when you're not trying it will happen"...unfortunately sometimes the clichés just aren't true. Just trying to be honest. They become sound bites that women TTC tune out because they are tired of hearing it. Sometimes medical intervention may be the only option and THATS OK too. There is no shame on what method you use to bring a child into the world, but that they are safe and loved.

When you stop trying, it will happen. Never lose hope! Just because a doctor says it will never happen for you, doesn't mean it won't. Miracles happen every single day!

don't think "am I going to get pregnant this time?" it will happen when it happens, too much emphasis on it or stress about it will not help.... I hadn't been on birth control for about 5 months, every time my husband and I had sex I wondered if it would happen and it never did, it just so happened that the time it did I didn't even want to have sex, but did anyway, the next time my period was due it didn't come, I felt sick one day after eating lunch and it dawned on me my period was over a week late.... went up to our room/bathroom (we were living in his parents house while ours was being built) took a test and sure enough, I was pregnant

Try not to let ttc take the intimacy or fun out of your relationship. It can get stressful, try to relax.

Sometimes you need to leave the place where you are behind, if not physically, then mentally. My husband I were were TTC for months, but after one too many negative tests and tears and the consequential arguments, we stopped talking about babies. We moved overseas and as a result our lives changed drastically. EVERYTHING - personal habits, diet, mindset. The new year came around but my period did not. I became pregnant when we weren't even 'trying'. So the moral of the story is, even if can't move to a different continent like I did, even subtle changes may add up to more than you would expect...

Who would be interested in trading gifts with other moms? I did it once in this prego group I was in years ago. You would get a box and fill it with things you think another mom would enjoy and send it across miles away. 💜❤️💜 it helped moms make room for friendships far away. I would be willing 😁😍

why would you be fired?

So if being a mom was an actual (literal) job, what is something you've done recently that would have gotten you fired?

babybump_user I'm sooo glad I'm not the only one!! I've had to rewash a load like 3 times
babybump_user @ivonne that's great ❤️ it's not sexual harassment if he likes it ? That's having an affair
