They said getting pregnant was so easy
Back when I was a teenager, teachers, parents and teen magazines were all warning us of the “dangers” of getting pregnant. They made it sound like the second that guy’s private parts swung vaguely in our direction, we were at risk of ending up as teen mothers. So I dutifully took the pill, and used a condom if there was any reason to doubt that the pill would be effective. I was almost terrified that a tiny mistake could end up with me being pregnant at an age when I didn’t even think I wanted to have children. Ever.
All that’s very ironic now that I’m thirty-something and trying to get pregnant. You see, it turns out that it’s actually not so easy. Well, at least not for everyone. And these difficulties are exactly what I’ll be writing about here at gettingpregnant.today.com . Join me for this bumpy ride and don’t be afraid to comment if you’re in the same boat.

Good luck on conception. I do find it crazy how some girls get pregnant without hardly trying and others work so hard.
I’m sort of the first one, lol. I wish you lots of luck.
Thanks esper_d. Yep, it does seem crazy sometimes! I just figure that people like me who have to work at it longer have longer to look forward to the joy … or something like that
