    I don't have medical advice for you but in view of your other postings, why do you "need" to get pregnant right now?

    And, no, I don't believe a C section has anything to do with you not getting pregnant.

    Are you crazy?

    You're having relationship problems, your daughter is ONLY 1 year old, you're still breastfeeding, and you want to get pregnant?

    You should be focusing on the children you have already--though how you've had 4 C-sections with only 2 kids is beyond me--and working on communication with your husband if you want to make your marriage work.

    You should NOT be focusing on competing with his "other woman" who is pregnant, and you should NOT be trying to get pregnant to keep your man.

    4 c-sections could be the reason for not getting pregnant again. It may be that you may need to try a little more. You should get a checkup by a medical doctor to make sure that you are O. K..

    Some times it seems to be too easy to get pregnant, but in reality after having sex there is a small percent cance that the sperm will reach the ovary where the eggs are fertilezed. It takes that little sperm 100% pluss motivation to make it that far.

    Maybe you should try a few posterior elevated posions to try to hury the process up if the docter gives you a clean bill of health.

    Trust me my marriage was rocky from the beginning and having babies DID NOT make a better relationship in any way whatsoever. In fact it made it easier for my ex to go around LAUGHING to people that he could trust me because I was STUCK with four kids! In the meantime he was cheating like crazy on me.

    If your previous kids have not improved your marriage another one will not either.
    WHY do you feel a necessity to get pregnant?

    You are better off getting your life together and then deciding when the time is right about having another baby.

    On a black humor note - I know why OP isn't getting pregnant. Read the other posts. He's never "home." It takes two. (I think)

    You don't need to get pregnant, you need marriage conselling, and to figure out whether you and hubby are even going to stay together.

    Get your head on straight, bringing another child into the picture will only further your problems.

    Yes, in your other posts your husband is sleeping with pregnant women, and/or sleeping with someone else, you know about it,

    This is not going to make him come back, perhaps get you more child support if he bothers to pay.

    Not that I think that you need to have another child given your situation, but one of the reasons you are having trouble getting pregnant is 1-you have not had a period since Aug. 2-you are still breast feeding, although you can get pregnant while breastfeeding it is more difficult.
