Hi! I'm hoping to find some other people in the same position as me. I'm 21 years old and I just got married this past July. My husband and I just started trying to get pregnant. Actually, right now we're waiting to find out if I am. Most of the forums I go to I feel like I shouldn't comment because everyone has been ttc for many years and having difficulty so I don't feel like it's my place to go on there and complain that I have to wait to find out if I'm pregnant or not on my first attempt. So anyway, if anyone out there is just trying to conceive and impatient like myself, I would love someone to talk to. Thanx:)

hi, i hope this gives you some perspective - some caucasian women do not naturally ovulate until they are in their mid 20's (i think i was one of those)
the good news is that you have many fertile years in front of you. just enjoying being married without getting pregnant is something many women would relish. i would be one of those that says, what's the rush? i had my last child at 42 aqnd now i'm ttc again at 48. there are many advantages to having children when you're older. hang on in there and have fun being childless! many moms will tell you the fun can dry up quite quickly when the little ones come along - ask britney spears. hope this allows you the space to just relax about it. when you've gone a full year, any fertility dr. will stimulate your ovaries for you. good luck!

Hi! I'm really happy with my life and my husband right now, but we both want to be young parents and don't really have any intentions of waiting to have children. Everyone is different in that respect, but we both feel that we want to be young energetic parents and have all the children we are going to have before we are 30. We are having a great time enjoying married life, but we are ready for more and hopefully will be having a child very soon. I'm really hoping to find people in a similar position to myself to talk to who understand where I am coming from.

You have just as much right as the 29 and 35 year olds on here that are hoping for a baby. You're an adult, you're obviously in a happy marriage and you both seem rearin to go as young parents. I had my oldest daughter when I was 20 and my second when I was 22. At 27 I am still happily married to the same man and currently ttc #3. Good luck to you and yes, waiting is SOOO hard when all you can think about is babies babies babies!!! :) BABY DUST!!
