Hi I have two children already one after the other, then we didn't try until this last year for number 3. However it's not happening Sad.
I'm not all that fully obsessed so it's not the pressure I know it'll happen when it does but when?!
Aware you can't answer this but I'm tracking my fertile days using opks and temp still it's not happening?

Probably not terribly helpful, but I know a lot of people fall pregnant when they stop "trying" because there bodies are more relaxed etc

Could it be the vitamins I'm taking? I take one b12, one Zinc, One magnesium and a b complex daily ?x

Are you having sex before you get a positive opk? I think people can get too focused on the opks, but they can mean that you miss ovulation, particularly if you get a positive then wait a few hours before dtd.

It's utterly normal for it to take a year or so. Even if you time it perfectly and you're both in tip top 100% condition, chances of conception never exceed 25% and are usually lower. Give it another couple of months and then consider seeing your GP.
