At what point should I wonder if something's wrong? - Trying to Conceive (TTC) Message Board

Okay, I'm 24 and my husband and I have been ttc for the past year.
I've never been on birth control, so I know something like that isn't interfering. I have pretty regular cycles (28 plus or minus a day or two at times). We really bd whenever we feel like it exept for days 12-16 when we try to bd every day. My husband is in the military, so we've only had the opportunity to be together during day 12-16 maybe 6 or 7 months in the past year.
My mother and sister who always managed to get pg the first month they try think that there's something wrong with me and I should see a doctor about this. At my last pap smear appt. I asked the doctor about it and she just said to relax. At what point do you guys think I should go back to the doctor about this? I'm going to go crazy if one more person asks me when we're going to have kids!

I would bdance from day 10 - day 18 to increase your chances

Do you do you bbt? this is a really good way to check and see if you have ovulated, i do mine and this month i have not ovulated (annovulatory), if i had not been temping i would certainly be doing a pg test by now as i would be due AF and would be classing myself as late

Taking Charge Of Your Fertility by Toni Weschler is a really good book to get hold of, it explains all about your fertile window and how to temp correctly.

Good Luck and relax - i know how you feel
