You should try where you live it depends but you're very young and are you married ? if your worrying about if it cost or not surely tells me your not ready financially for a baby sorry to tell you but having a baby is very very costly good luck

Being married or not makes no difference

Have you been to your GP for advice?

[roxannacar]

Are you UK based? If so you will not be referred unless you have been trying for a long time of having unprotected sex by that I mean around 2 years. Being married is not a qualifying criteria. In the UK if you qualify for NHS treatment you will not have to pay, referral via gp

Sweetheart you're only 21. I would advise you to wait at least 10 years but I suppose not really my place to say! Just for me 20s was far too early! How long have you been trying to get pregnant? If you're having sex 2-4 times a week, You should conceive within a year. Consider other factors for you BOTH - smoking? Exercise? Healthy weight? Iron supplements, not overheating his bits (tight jeans, saunas etc can lower sperm count).

I agree- not my place to say anything, but if you were my daughter I would give an advice:

looking back at my experience: in my 20's I was studying, traveling and working around the world, learning new languages, meeting interesting people, visiting art galleries, going to gigs- live concerts and rave events, musicals and ballets, learning about myself as I was not completely developed myself as I did not know much yet and I was hardly an adult yet . Now that I have done all these things, I am over 30, in my third trimester of pregnancy and I am so ready to be a mum, to put my needs behind baby's ones as I have done everything I dreamt of.

You have all rights to think that I am a judgemental ass- as probably I am and not to listen to me.

(I knew a lovely girl who was 18 and she had her aspirations to become something but her boyfriend talked her into having baby so they can have a house, support etc... I am so sad for this girl as they are no longer together and she is looking after their 2 children, he's not much involved and girl has no time for college, forget about uni and its fees)

The other week I spoke to a lady who works in a countryside shop where my dad lives. She knows my family so when she saw my bump we had a chat about children and that my children will be still teenagers when I'll be 50. She had hers when she was 20, and now she said that in her 40's now she can do what she wants- that's why it's best to have babies when we are young! (I know that her salary is very small, she can't afford traveling, studying, nor expensive hobbies, her son is still in education and she's financially supporting him- I suppose by saying that she can do everything she wants she meant sleeping in, watching tv, fishing, not cooking 3x a day meals and maybe sometimes going out - in that country village and near area there's no pubs, no cafes...)

I did not say anything to her as I don't think it was worth the argument. I think she has not been outside the country's borders forget about continent.

Maybe her needs and wants and aspirations are different than mine. Maybe I have been a selfish prick by enjoying myself all these years whilst maturing and maybe she's been mature since the beginning and instead of travels and self indulgence her priority has been the family.

What ever you decide I wish you a good luck and hopefully there are no problems with your fertility!

I would suggest you to start with taking folic acid and finding out your ovulation dates so you can more precisely know your fertile window!

Best of luck!
