Trouble Getting Pregnant: My Story
My name is Angie and I am 29 years old.
Ever since my husband came home from Iraq 3 years ago, we have tried and tried again to conceive. I’m ready to be a mom, he’s ready to be a dad. Like you, I was having trouble getting pregnant.
We met in high school, went to prom together, and as I left for college to become a teacher, and he enlisted, we promised each other our hearts. Four years later we were married.

Now, I believe most of our friends and family assumed we would have had children then, but we decided with the war in Iraq/Afghanistan it just wasn’t the right time. I could focus on my career and we would discuss children once he came back for good.
He retired 2 and a half years later and we decided to begin our family.
We tried, and tried and tried. Following every possible natural advantage. It almost felt like we were charting the stars to make sure they were aligned. I went to my doctor and began taking several fertility drugs, but alas, it was to no avail. I was still having trouble getting pregnant.
It was putting a strain on our relationship and I noticed my husband worked longer hours, and it was tough for us to find a reason to spend time together. My trouble getting pregnant, was turning into trouble for our marriage.
Our turning point came last December when not having a family really hit us the hardest. We fought several times a day, and it seemed like every one of our close friends and family would send us photo cards with their family and “new addition.” Everyone could get pregnant but me.
We spent Christmas apart, and things were not going well.
By the new year we had reconciled realizing where our frustration arose. My husband and I became more civil about the issue and decided to attack it head on. When I wasn’t grading book reports, I was online searching for what other women have done when they had trouble getting pregnant.
