It took me and my husband 10 months to get pregnant I would stop worrying about it. If you don't get pregnant by a year then go see the doctor.

Did you know that each time a normal healthy couple has unprotected sex, there is only 20% chance of conception? It may well be bad luck but it would be safe to have a checkup. Have you ever had any abortions? As this can cause infertility. Your husband could also have a low sperm count. I'm assuming that you're healthy in other ways eg you are having regular periods. As @leastimtrying said, being underweight can reduce your chances of conception. Get one of those things that tells you when you're ovulating like terrifenby suggested. Also eat rhubarb as it has plant oestrogen in it =]

If you have taken the contraceptive pill within the last 18 months that wuldn't help, as it takes 18 months after taking it to be totally back to your fertile self :) On google you can find supplements which are meant to help x

All that time in between she thought she couldn't have babies, and that my oldest brother was a miracle! Then, BAM, 2 babes back to back! She still calls all of us miracles, but she realized that yes, she could get pregnant. I know that story is not so common, but i wanted to tell you that there is probably nothing wrong with you.
Women that are very over or under weight have trouble conceiving. Take your vitamins and prepare your body to be pregnant. 7 months isn't long enough to stress yourself out, which dampens your chances of getting pregnant ironically! You are young so you have time to have babies. Its not as if you are hearing your clock ticking! relax, and good luck!

Sounds hard but try not to stress out over it. That wont help the situation! Get a test that will tell you when you are ovulating and go from there. Like K c100 said wait a year before going to see the doctor! But dont stress out you still get to have fun while your trying. ;)

Wait until you have been trying for a year and if you have still not had any success then you need to visit a doctor. The reason I say wait until it has been a year is because a doctor wont see you regarding fertility unless you have been trying to get pregnant for a year so you are just going to have to wait a little longer and keep trying.
In the mean time try googling "fertility" and you will get all sorts of advice and tips on how to maximise your chances of getting pregnant.
I hope this helps and good luck!
