I had a baby 4 years ago. Since he was born I haven't take any birth control pill (only condom) and now we want another baby but can't get pregnant.

How long have you been trying? Does your husband take hot baths or showers or wear tight underwear (briefs) or pants? The problem may be his because of those things.

We have been trying for 2 months and he does not use or does any of those things you just mentioned.
Thanks.

Two months is not long to be trying. To get pregnant with my second son, it took me a year (after I convinced my husband to stop taking hot baths). The women in my family get pregnant easily, like almost whenever the husband sneezes. (That's a joke, but they definitely get pregnant easily and quickly.)

Be sure to forget about trying to get pregnant. Relax and enjoy sex. Be romantic just because you are in love. When you are stressed and tense, it becomes more difficult to make babies.

Well, I feel much better. Thanks for you time Wondergirl, by the way my husband hates hot baths.(because we live in vegas, the weather is too hot)

We live in the hot, steamy Chicago area. Now that I've gone through menopause, my husband happily takes hot baths again, even during the summer.

Remember, have fun and be romantic! And don't think about babies -- think about white bears.

I agree.. two months is not along time to be trying.. dont stress relax and have fun... took me 8 months to conceive my daughter after only 2 with my son... I know it seems like forever but a lot goes into the factor of getting pregnant.. timing is everything... good luck!

I had my son almost 4 years ago, and can't get pregnant. I don't use any protection whatsoever. Don't know what 2 do!!

How long have you been trying? Is this with the same partner? May I ask your age?

As the previous posts discuss, it can often take quite a bit of time, even if it happened easily before. There can be a time where it may be wise to discuss some possible testing with your doctor, but that usually doesn't occur until you have been actively trying for at least a year.
