i don't know if i can get pregnant

When i was little from 8 to 13 i was molested by my stepdad, and i've tried to get pregnant several times, and its never happened, does it have anything to do with being molested or am i just messed up? I'd really like to have kids if not now, some day...but i'm not sure i can actually get pregnant i don't see why i haven't already i've tried everything. Whats wrong with me?

B.Have a life 1st go to college have a husband do it by the book its worth it!
C. love that baby more then you ever loved anything in the worl
D. GET AN EPIDURAL!!! lol (16 hrs of back labor then decided to get one)

I'm not sure what state u live in, but it sounds like a third world country! You are only 19 and maybe u r just blessed to no get prego at this time. I highly doubt ur  truly able to care for urself  let alone another life. Get an education & find a husband before u end up knocked up and alone. It sounds that u r trying to fix ur problems this way. Try a good therapist to help u through this. I can tell u r truly crying for help. Oh & for that tnt406 u forgiving ur pervert dad does not make open the doors to heaven & if that is ur choice then so be it. Don't assume that is the right thing & encourage this girl to forgive that animal who striped the tragedy girl of her purity & dignity. You just want acceptance & will go to any extreme to get it. If u feel validated for caring for ur dieing nasty father than rock on, but u should protect ur kids from this beast!

Well no i've not had testing, by trying i mean, i was engaged about 2 years ago and him and i were trying for a baby, nearly every day. Nothing. And this time i wasn't actually trying to get pregnant, i have a friend with benifits, and for a while i THOUGHT that i was pregnant, i took 2 tests one was pos. one was neg. and i'm going to planned parenthood friday to find out for sure but i have a feeling its neg. I honestly don't think that i can get pregnant. Thats really upsetting, I'm still really young i mean, i'm 19. And i shouldn't be thinking about having kids before i'm married or w/e but someday, i'd like to. And it just seems that if i can't because of the stuff with my step dad....well my mom, no  one beleived me, but the proof, doesn't seem worth it. idk what to do... -Brandi
