Perfect timing for 6 months and still nothing

[Queenie23]

I have done everything right for the last 6 months. I have timed intercourse perfectly (using CBFM and OPK) I know when I ovulate and I 4-5 times around ovulation, yet still no

Does this mean there is more than likely a problem? If I have done everything right and timed it perfectly every cycle, then why am I still not pregnant? My friends and family have proven it to be very easy to get pregnant. Everywhere I look is people talking about babies or having a baby. Why is it working for everyone apart from me? Everyone keeps asking me when I am having children as I have been married almost a year and a half and I feel so angry. It's like "HELLO I AM TRYING MY BEST, I CAN'T HELP IT THAT I AM INFERTILE"

There must be a problem 6 months on right???

I am not sure how the cbfm works as I just used opks.

When you get a positive or close +opk, are you getting in some bd before the positive and also for the next 3 days following the positive?

I am in the same boat and looking into what could be wrong. It is really frustrating when everyone around u is onto they're second pregnancy and u can't get pregnant with ur first. I lied to the doctors and said I have been trying for a year coz I want answers now not in another 6 months. My cousin had a D&C (not from miscarriage but to remove old lining) and fell pregnant the next month. I hope it's something similar for me. Have u looked into getting hormone levels checked? Not that I'm saying something could be wrong i think the average no. of ttc cycles on FF is 8 months but it's better to find out sooner if there is.

I know how frustrating it can be hun

Even the slightest thing "wrong" in your normal life - like smoking, eating habits, not getting enough water, stress, etc can delay pregnancy. I know you have probably heard this all before hehe. Your time will come - just remember there is a reason why you wait until the 1 year mark to look for fertility issues. I know it seems like everyone around us is getting pregnant - but 6 months is nothing to get worked up about. It will just make TTC more stressful hun.

I am sure as far as fertility issues go you are fine It sucks sometimes but we all have to keep staying positive

The thing is we try to BD every other day and when I get a + OPK and CBFM, we go ever day for 2-3 days.

But knowing when I am going to ovulate makes it impossible to BD the day before, as I know it can be 12-36 hours.
Maybe you girls could help me.

I have a 31 day cycle every month for the last 6 months. I have been getting a PEAK day at 6AM on CD16 every month. We usually BD around 7PM that day (although if CD16 is on a weekend, we usually BD during the day)

So to be clear I get High days from CD12 and then get a PEAK on CD16. I always test around 6AM every morning. So when do you suggest BD'ing? I would do anything for October to be the month. We should get DH tests back by then.
