My boyfriend and myself have been trying
to have a baby for almost six months and
yet no sucess. Since he is a father from
his previous relationship I doubt that he
is the one with the problem. I have
consulted this with my doctor and he has
done some test, but yet i'm told i'm fine
that some women just take longer than
others. My question is............
is it possible to get pregnant during the
beginning of your period? I ask because
everytime we try, its always when my
period is gone. Maybe you have more
information on this topic and can help me
as to what we can do.

Hi twizted,
there is most probably nothing at all
wrong with you. It is most likely just a
case of not having intercourse on your
most fertile days. Many couples have
trouble concieving because they just can't
seem to catch those most critical days
where they have released an egg. Just
remember we only release an egg once a
month, and it is only there waiting to be
fertilised for a few days, so if your not
calculating which days to have
intercourse, you would nearly need to have
sex every day of the month just to catch
the right day. We usually release an egg
approx. 14 days after our period, so
having intercourse just before or after
your period is not going to help at all.
Have you tried ovulation kits ? They are
very helpful.
good luck

As always suzy gave wonderful advice. 6
months is surely not that long of an
amount of time to be concerned over. In
fact it takes most couples a couple of
years to successfully conceive (although
of course for some it may take a longer or
shorter amount of time). If the doctor
says everything is fine with you then
don't worry and just have fun before you know it
you will have a little baby!
