Should I be Pregnant by Now?
Question
My boyfriend and I started having sex for seven months. Actually the first month we used condom, so I didn’t get pregnant because of using protection, but after that we stopped using protection and I’m worried that I haven’t got pregnant and I want to know if that is normal or if it takes a while to become pregnant?

First off I should ask if you are trying to achieve a pregnancy. If you are trying to achieve pregnancy there is less then a week in each cycle where you are fertile and can become pregnant. The best way to learn about this fertile time is to take a Natural Family Planning class. By charting your cycle you can learn when you are fertile and when you are not. Also in charting your cycle you can see any irregularities that may be present.
This may help you achieve pregnancy if that is your wish.
