Am i the only person who thinks this?

Hiya,

I have to agree- the more you think carefully about it, the biology of conception and how well-timed everything has to be... well then the more impossible it seems.

I found last time that it was exactly when I chilled out and stopped thinking about it that I conceived- after about 4 or 5 months of TTC.

Good luck!

Keeping positive is important too!

hi, good luck with trying to conceive.

i know it is very hard but dont be disheartened if you get your period this month. it really isn't a given that anyone will get pregnant first time round.

it took me and OH 9 months before falling pregnant with ds1 and actually we had given up 'trying' after about 5 months and decided to let things just happen rather than proactively trying. we went to a fertility clinic at the start just for advice and they told us that we should try for a year before seeking help.

i hope this helps. and relax, stress wont help it happen.

Rather than a difficult ride, try to see it as something that may just take a little time. Healthy couples only have something like a 20% chance of conceiving each month, it's not a given even if you get everything done in the right place at the right time .

It took me six months to fall pregnant the first time and I was getting a little obsessive about it - which wasn't very nice. A friend of mine has just had her BFP after 14 months and is over the moon. There's no telling how long it will take. Good luck everyone!

You are SO not the only person. I have been driving myself crazy that it will never happen and we will have problems before we even started trying. We are only on month 3 but I feel like it will never happen. I keep banning myself from coming back on here and obsessing about it, but then I cant help it. And everyone says "just relax and forget about it"...if only that were possible!

Hi - totally know what you mean. My sister and best friend got pregnant on their first go.. I'm on cycle 3 and already feel panicky. We just need to BREATHE.. i'm sure it'll happen soon. If you look at the stats is something like 80% conceive in a year which ain't bad odds GOOD LUCK.

Good luck for Saturday!

You are far from being the only paranoid being on MN, but if you stumble across the wrong threads in conception you'll find people who have been TTC for years, literally , which can make you even more paranoid.
I hope you're like me and conceive easily, although apparently 'normal' couples take 6-12months to conceive on average
