    I want to get pregnant!
    :o Me and my boyfriend have been trying to have a baby but I can't seem to get pregnant, every time we make love his sperm comes right back out!! Can I still get pregnant? My period this month has been a little strange! I had it last week then got it again this week! I have been craving some unusual things these last few days and have been very cranky are these signs? I haven't taken a home pregnancy test yet should I?


    Any answer would help us!!

    It doesn't sound like you are pregnant to me. Are you sure you are ready? Maybe you need to read some pregnancy books. If you have sex without protection, trust me the sperm is not coming out. Not all of it anyway-it's in there. Doctors always say that if you are trying to get pregnant you need to give yourself at least one year. You can take ovulation tests to find out when is the best time, but that doesn't mean that you can't get pregnant at any other time.

    Hello another good book that I was using is... "baby making 101" it walks you through charting your cycle using the BBT method. I have this on a PDF if your interested just let me know. As well "taking charge of your fertility" is another one that you could look into.

    Good Luck!!

    My husband and I have been trying for 6 months now so I know how stressful it can be trying. Everyone keeps telling me to relax so that's what I have been trying to do. As well I have purchased and ovulation kit to help me better pinpoint my ovulation time so we can plan conception better. So this is something you might want to consider as well. :)

    It depends. When was the last time you had your period? Are you at all late? Buy the home test and test yourself first thing in the morning with your first urination of the day. If it is negative, that doesn't mean you are not pregnant. It just may mean that it is too soon to tell.

    Ruby is right on point. I would just like to point out that cravings don't start this early. It is usually not until around the third or fourth month, sometimes later that cravings start. Also, is it possible that you are due for your period and may have a stomach bug? Have you missed your period?

    Please take a HPT using first morning urine.

    Are you already pregnant? Or are you trying to figure out if you are by the fact that he is moody? The man's mood has nothing to do with determining if you are pregnant. I am assuming you are already pregnant... in this case, you're moodiness and emotions can transfer to your partner, but there is no medical connection or anything. My husband said I was a devil for the first 3 months and the last 2 months. But that was mainly because I was miserable and nesting... and he couldn't necessarily take my raging hormones. Hope that helps. :)

    Typically if the guy has sympathy symptoms with his wife's pregnancy, it doesn't start right away, certainly not before knowing you are pregnant(from your title, I am guessing you aren't for sure pregnant yet). When they do have sympathy symptoms, they are usually the same symptoms you have, nausea, headache, cravings, etc. I am more inclined to wonder, however, if the moodiness between you is coming from wanting to conceive but not having any luck. It can put strain on even the strongest of relationships. Or perhaps it is something else going on outside the home. Stress at work even? No matter what the possibilities, couples are bound to get on each others nerves now and then. There are too many other possibilities here, to definitely say that it is because you are pregnant. Good luck and I hope you find your answers soon.

    Should I ask him or go to the clinic and make sure?
    :confused: well here are a couple of questions I need answered! Should I ask him or go to the clinic and ask? These are for the clinic! What are my chances of getting pregnant every time we have sex? What are my consequences if I do end up pregnant and he don't want it? Should I douche if I might be pregnant? Can I handle being pregnant if I want it so bad? Is it safe for us to be play fighting if I might be pregnant? I have already taken a HPT it came out negative should I go to the clinic or should I wait till after my next period if I don't get it? Is it safe for him to be scaring me if pregnant? And this is for him should I ask him or NOT? If I gain weight will he leave me or not? Does he wonder if I am pregnant? Does his family wonder if I am pregnant? Would they like it if I end up pregnant?(this would be the first grandchild to his mother and father and first niece or nephew to his brother and sister)is he ready to have a baby? Does he think I am ready to be pregnant? I have had the syntoms of: tender breast, nauseas, back pain I never had, can't sleep, but feel tired all day, and I have been extremely thirsty the last week. I already took a HPT and it came out negative I plan to take another one at the beginning of next month after my missed period if it don't come!

    Thanks for all and any advice that can be given

    Wow, yes you do have lots of questions. Unfortunately not all of them can be answered.

    I will do my best to answer most of them for you.

    - Maybe it is best you go to the clinic yourself just to find out, that is my opinion.

    - The more you have sex, does not guarantee a better chanch of getting pregnant. The reason being is that most women only are fertile and can only get pregnant 3 days in a month.

    - If you do end up pregnant and he does not want it but you do. It is your choice whether you want to keep the baby or not. Not his.

    - Never ever, never ever douche. Whether you are pregnant or not.

    - Play fighting, I would say no. Many doctors say that what ever activities you have done before pregnancy you can continue while your pregnant. I on the other hand think very differently. I believe that you need to be careful of the activities that you do.

    - When is your period due? If it is past due for five to seven days then take another hpt test, but there have been cases of negatives really being positives with some women. This would be the time that you need to go to the clinic and get a blood test.

    - Just to be on the safe side and just to make sure that your lifestyle is healthy. No smoking, No drinking, cut out any caffiene products. Also you should start prenatels just in case you are pregnant or maybe you just want to get the results first?

    - What do you mean is it okay for him to scar you? What exactly does that mean?

    - Pregnancy and weight gain go together. If this boyfriend can not handle you gaining weight and he decides to leave you. Quite honestly your better off without him, but do not concern yourself with that, and if you have to ask that question there must be problems already?

    - I do not know about the family or how they will react. Each family is different. No matter who accepts or who does not, really does not count for much because it is you that needs to make the decision about the baby.

    - I think it is also best to get a complete physical from a doctor. They can check all your blood work and other symptoms just to make sure it is nothing else going on.
