I can relate to you, as my husband and I did the baby dance once and have Rissa to show for it. However, we started trying again and it took us almost 2.5 yrs to get pregnant for our son.
My original ob/gyn was not very helpful because he felt since we had one then we should be happy. I intended up going to a fertility clinic for him.
We are trying now for number baby three, and after the grief from trying to conceive two - we decided to keep it a more low key event.
When I was in HS/just out of I had to problem getting pregnant, did twice in fact but unfortunitly both ended in miscarriage :(
I'm lucky where my ob/gyn is VERY supportive of our wanting a baby and said that once we passed the one year mark we could make an appointment to talk with her of the next step which she said would to do some tests on my SO.BUT considering money right now going to see her isn't an option so we're just trying to ride out the wait and hope for the best.
We have considered the possibility of the problem lying within him but sadly, tho my ob/gyn is supportive of us coming back and talking about the next steps to take and doing tests on him but it's not in the budget now and not sure of when it will be. We do know he was on some meds as a child (according to his mom) that she says could've had some affects on sperm BUT naturally she won't dish out the info for us so we can research.I honestly don't think he was since she's so secretive about it once we ask and we KNOW she doesn't want us having kids b/c she hates me and is always bad mouthing me to everyone.
You may want to talk to a provider, you and your husband. If nothing else they may offer you some potential insight into what might be causing the delay. With my first it took 4 years to conceive so I ended up considering different things to help me conceive from acupuncture to herbs. These also may be options you want to consider. Also as cheesy as it sounds, try to relax. The first month I stopped stressing about conceiving with the second I conceived.
I spoke with my ob/gyn back in September when I saw her for my annual and she asked if/what I wanted to birth control.I told her that when I had been in the previous year and saw the male Dr(saw him Aug), due to her being on maternity leave and gotten my BC that I had stopped taking it(Oct) a couple months later after we decided to try getting pregnant.
She is very supportive of us wanting a babe of our own together and said she would like to sit and talk with the both of us and possibly even do some tests on him and his sperm to make sure everything is good there.But only me working right now holds that up.
I have done a lot of research/reading of books to find herbs and such that will help with concieving and have my list ready.lol There's even a couple on the list for him to take :)
We're A LOT more relaxed these last few months.For the longest time we'd chart etc and stopped doing it because it just started making him even more frustrated to see that our fertile time was coming up and that we would end up not pregnant.

Have you considered that maybe the problem isn't with you, that maybe its something with your partner?
