I have been trying to get pregnant for over a year, and no it seems like it just cant happen. My hopes will be sky high when i am a little bit late, and then AF never fails to show up. Just recently, i was two weeks late, and then i got slapped in the face by getting my period today, on Mother's Day of all days! Maybe its just not in my cards right now, but everytime i switch the channel something about pregnancy will be on or another one of my friends will announce they are having a baby. It is really getting to me and i am now having a hard time coping with it. How can i get over this?

    Spooky! It's not your fault but you're not an idiot. You will get a baby soon, but maybe not now, stop stressing.

    As other commenters pointed out, stress is likely an issue here. You are clearly very stressed out about it, and the fact that it is so often 'rubbed in your face,' so to speak, could only be making the problem worse. My advice would be to consult your doctor and/or consider adoption. While there is unfortunately no magic bullet to answer all of your problems, your doctor can either give you something to help or you cam adopt, which would not only make you a mother, but would save a baby from a potential childhood in foster care, which would be unfortunate. My apologies if I seem a bit biased towards adoption, but I was adopted myself and I'm so grateful that I didn't grow up switching from foster home to foster home. However, I'm not saying you shouldn't consult a GP if you feel that's the way to go; the choice is yours, and I'm sure that whichever way you choose, it will be a great decision and I wish you the best of luck as you take the necessary steps to become a parent.

    It took 3 years for me to get pregnant with my last son. See an MD. Just relax. It will happen.

    It's probably because you're stressed about trying a lot, try to relax and not think about it and it would just happen.

    stop trying and stop thinking about it. a lot of couples that are "trying" can't get pregnant probably because they're stressing out about it. it will happen when the right comes :)
