Me and my partner have been together for over 2 years and we have been trying for a baby and nothing had happened.We are both desperate for a baby. All my sisters have had children and conceived without any problems. I'm worried that something is seriously wrong with me. I'm to scared to go to my doctors. Help me please

The first order of business should be your partner's getting testing for sperm count, etc. It's easy, non-invasive, and might be the problem (since your sisters can get pregnant easily). In other words, it might not be you.

If he's "desperate" to have a baby, I'm hoping he will agree to this. Also, too often stress and pressure and the urgency of wanting a baby messes up your hormones and guarantees a sperm won't find an egg. Forget about getting pregnant, and just have fun together in bed and out of it.

If you have been actively trying for two years then, as Wondergirl said, time to have some initial testing done for both of you. Being scared is understandable, but it won't help you find out if something needs to be done to change things for you. Being proactive will allow you to work towards your goal.

Also in your trying, are you tracking your cycle dates and only having sex on the most fertile times.
