Hey Manda11907,

My name is Victoria, Im 16 and pregnant. It can take time to get pregnant, me n my fiance werent trying to get pregnant but it happend. We werent exactly using proper percausions though. So it took us 10 months to get pregnant. But yes smoking could affect you getting pregnant and if your trying to get pregnant you shouldnt be smoking. Im sure it will happen when the time is rite. Very Happy

It takes the average couple 1 year to conceive. It may seem like you've been tryin for a long time, but you only have an approximately 25% chance to get pregnant every month. Even if you have sex 4 times a day. Smile
