Question

Timing question....please help.

This may seem silly to some but I really need to hear some reassurance of some sort.

I have two children already, a 6 year old and a 4 years old. With both we got pregnant easily, within a few months.
We have been TTC #3 for two months now with no avail. We have done it all right, OPK's and BBT charting(confirmed ovulation) and even used Preseed last month, still nothing.
Does this mean there is something wrong? I just need brutal honesty here. Its hard for me to wrap my brain around the fact that we have done exactly what we are supposed to do to give ourselves the best chances and haven't had luck. Please help.

you said it took a few months last time, why are you starting to worry after just two months?
it is considered normal for young fertile couples to get pregnant within 12 months of trying
note that only 1/3 of eggs get fertilized, and of them only 1/4 implants
keep trying :) this is the only solution
you can start thinking about it if the things have not changed after a year or two

Thanks Bradipina. We got pregnant with our daughter in the first month. We got pregnant in month one TTC#2 and unfortunately had a miscarriage, waited 3 months and then got pregnant after the first month of trying again. Hence my concern on going into month 3 TTC this time around.
We will absolutely keep trying, its just disheartening every month to see that negative and the fear of doing this for years paralyzes me.

I think 3 months is too soon to be worried.
