Hi ladies!
My DH and I have been ttc for 6 months, although I've been off BC for 15 months and before we were "trying" we weren't "not trying" either.
I've had blood work and a histerosalpingogram (all fine), and my sweet DH is going in for a semen analysis next week. I'm 29 and he's 31 and we're both healthy and in average shape.
Can someone please push a magic button and tell me when I can expect a BFP!?!?!?
Thanks!

Ok...hold on. Have you been charting your CM, or BBT? You need to do this in order to know when you're ovulating. That's just a tip.
6 months is not a long enough time to freak out. Sperm analysis already? Seriously. If you've been trying for over a year and a half, I would understand it. But, like a PP said, it can take a HEALTHY couple up to a year to conceive without outside intervention. Also, the dr. who ordered the sperm analysis, IMO? Just looking for more money. It's a bullshiit test to order at this stage in the game.
Go over to the TTC board...they'll help you out with chart examples.
Asides from that, good luck.

Big fat disagree. If you haven't been preventing for 15 months, that counts as TTC. If you've been TTC over 1 year, or over 6 months if you're over 35, you've met the clinical definition of infertility. I hope you can get some answers, either way, good luck!
agreed completely.
Best of luck to you and I hope you get a sticky BFP soon!
