My boyfriend and i havent done a single thing to prevent getting pregnant since we got together 2 & a half years ago.. we assumed we couldnt have kids because nothing had happened.. so he started to (excuse my language) come inside of me.. we continued this for almost a year &i still nothing. Until last week when i took 3 first response pregnancy tests &they low & behold.. all positive.

So don't worry about a what if or maybe. Stress is the BEST birth control there is, and you sound like you are making a lot of it. Just let it go and relax, enjoying being with your husband. It'll happen before you know it.

I didn't get tested. My parents at the time just ran me up to a center that cures it, I went and got a shot.

It can cause infertility, but it's not that common that it does. Many women contract gonorrhea and have it for several weeks or months with no harm done. Did you actually test positive for it, or treated as a prevention? If you're really concerned you can talk to a doctor, but because you've only tried for 4 months most will not do testing yet. You have nothing to be concerned about yet - you've been trying for an extremely short amount of time. In any average couple you only have a 20-25% chance of conception when having sex during your fertile times.

I just got married in June but been trying since march because my husband is in the air force. I'm just worried because when I was 14 I was raped and it took a couple of months to find the guy and when they did they found out the guy had an std "the clap". My parents freaked so they got me treated just in case. I know that can make you not have a baby. I'm just scared about that.

Don't give up. I got pregnant after 4 months with our second child. It is very trying when it doesn't happen as fast as others. Stop worrying and stressing about it, it helps. You won't get all the preggo symptoms at once. It was the times I thought I wasn't pregnant when I actually was. Have faith its way way too early to give up! It can take some couples years.

I tried for a year and a half and finally got pregnant and there is nothing wrong with me or my fiance. Don't get discouraged, your time will come. It happens when you relax a bit.

March of this year? If so you're getting WAY too ahead of yourself. Signs DO NOT mean you're pregnant, and if you look for them you'll always find them. Give it time, pregnancy doesn't happen overnight and doesn't often happen within the first 6 months. It can take an average couple 1-2 years to naturally get pregnant. Wait and retest and see what happens.

Like I had so many signs. I hardly eat and when I start my period or anything I eat a lot. I'll have like two bites and I full. Then I would get moments when I feel sick and tired. My chest hurts but not to bad. I get a random cold an I pee a lot. I just don't know.

That maybe a good sign then. The bleeding you saw maybe implantation bleeding. Most pregnancy test wont pick up too much until after you've missed your period. I would try testing again in a week if still no regular period flow. Also i found the best time to ttc is right after your period :) Good luck!!

Like I missed my period and was two days late but on the third day brown an pinkish and red stuff started to happen. So I just put a lady's thing in because I thought I was starting. But it was really light and hardly anything there when I would go change. I went to the doctor and told them and that was when I was a day late and I took a test and it was negative but the doctor said I would be to early to tell. I have never been on birth control.

I started trying in february and am now 8 weeks along. It also depends on if you were using birth control previous to trying. Sometimes it can take a while to get on a regular cycle.

That's not a very long time to be trying, if you haven't conceived after a year of trying, then I would see a doctor, and they will run some tests to see what's going on :) Good luck
