My husband and I have been together for almost 8 years and recently got married on 11/11/11. Babies have been on my mind non stop for the past 2 or 3 months.So me and my husband were talking the other day and decided that when I go to yearly check up with my obgyn( which is in July) I am going to talk to the doctor about getting off the pill.I am excited and nervous all at the same time. My sister is pregnant with her 5th child already and I fell it is my turn. I am the married one and the older child I need to get a move on.I have seen my sister go through all her preganacy and as you all can tell she has no problem getting pregnant. I am just scared that since i have been on the pill for 12 years I am going to have a problem concieving. I just wanted to write on here so I could talk to people about to start trying to get pregnant or people who already are and how they felt. I just can't shake the feeling that I won't be able to get pregnant and I hate it.
Thank you for your response. I just turned 28 this past Saturday so I am still in that 1 year catagory so that's good to know. Now I won't worry if nothing happens. I mean I won't mind waiting until the begining of next year but would be happy if it happens within the first few months.
As for the feeling that it will take a while, try to shake the feeling. If you have no reason to believe that you will have difficulties, try to just see what happens. I know it's easier said than done. If you're over 35, you would probably seek help after 6 months of trying without success, if you're younger than 35 then the golden rule is usually a year of trying before they start testing for any problems (unless you're having other symptoms that are concerning).
Best of luck with your trying and I hope you can get your BFP soon!
