Trying to conceive.

I'm 18 and trying to get pregnant with my first baby. I had my period at the first of this month and we've had sex almost everyday since. I noticed last night that I was feeling sick to my stomach but it may be nothing. If anybody has any advice or comments please let me know...my fiancé and I are really wanting this to work.

It's good to know that it's worked for others. Back in October I missed my period completely and didn't have one til the end of November. I wAs sure I was pregnant but the doctor said something happened and I just didn't have my period and I wasn't pregnant. I'm afraid of getting my hopes up again....

If your not using ovulation tests, I would have sex every second day from 5 days after your period to a few days before your next expected period! I used the Iphone app too and got pregnant the first time trying, but it ended in miscarriage, then this time it took me two cycles of ovulation tests to get pregnant....I think if you time everything right then your chances are higher. What I did was wait until I got a positive on my ovulation test to bed, saved his sperm for over a week before so it would be a good load (sorry TMI) well, it worked! Now pregnant with my little boy 22 weeks :)

You would do better having sex every other day leading up to ovulation. Many assume more is better, and it's the opposite.

It's worth a shot but if you hold out till a few days before and after you ovulate you have a better chance.

Yep, we had sex everyday even multiple times a day sometimes. Anything is worth a shot when trying to concieve, don't stress about it too much though. Good luck! :)

I'm 18 and 30w4 days, my fiance and I weren't trying for a baby but we weren't preventing one either, we had sex literally every single day in June and July and when I finally found out I was pregnant I was 13 weeks and already in my second trimester :) now were about to have a beautiful little girl in ten weeks :)

I am also 18 and I'm 10 weeks. My fiance and I tried and tried and finally one night we switched things up and just had sex for fun. We didn't think about having a baby we just wanted fun. Try to not think about it and have fun. Also try other positions because I got pregnant from being ontop. Hope this helps. good luck!

Neat thing about the raising your waist after sex thing you hit that like 38 week mark and you'll be doing the same dang thing cause semen supposedly thins your cervix lol.
