    I found this article that is a summation of what most doctors will tell you:


    If you're under 35 and have been trying to get pregnant for less than a year (or less than six months if you're over 35), you have no reason to be concerned yet. To make sure you're doing all you can to enhance your chances of getting pregnant, remember the importance of timing intercourse, detecting ovulation, and tracking your basal body temperature and cervical mucus.

    If you're under 35 and have had frequent unprotected sex for more than a year (or at least six months if you're over 35) without conceiving, there's a good chance that you or your partner may have a condition that's interfering with your chances of conceiving — but only a doctor can diagnose a fertility problem for sure.

    Researchers estimate that as many as one in ten couples has trouble getting pregnant. If you're one of them, that doesn't mean you'll never have children. Many struggling couples — as many as 50 percent within the first year — go on to have children on their own, but many will need medical intervention to get pregnant.

    Keep trying! And have regular sessions with your OB/GYN for support.
