no you cant get pregant from making out. making out is french kissing  for a long time. although kissing that long can lead to sexual arousal and then possibly intercourse. but simply making out will not get you pregant.

Clomid may help.  But of equal importance is your anxiety level.  Here's a strange: I'm a medical professional, and in my forty years of practice, I've met dozens of couples who had a hard time getting her pregnant.  These couples had no physical problem that could be detected.   But in a good number of these cases, when she stopped being so concerned with her lack of "success" - blamed if she didn't get pregnant!  So hon - hard as it is, you need to just relax and accept life as it's presented to you.  Quit fretting and worrying and don't rush from doctor to doctor, and for Pete's sake don't try ANY "alternative" therapy.  Go with the flow.  \nOne last thing: three of the women I refer to actually tried to get pregnant with donor sperm: they failed.  Not because there was anything wrong with them or the donor product - but because they were so very anxious.   Many couples do succeed in having a child through an anonymous donor program.  But attitude can make it so very much harder.  Anyway - good luck to you and hubby.

Maybe the fact that you are married and have two kids by the age of twenty has something to do with that. It is easier to be successful and have your own things when you start a family a little later in life. Starting a family fresh out of high school or while in high school is like starting in the hole. You got a long way to go before you can climb out and break even, let alone get ahead. It is not impossible, but even without the family, it takes time and hard work.

Are you trying to have a child?  If so, any method works, just keep trying it and don't worry about it a lot.  Seems that the "obsession" has a negative effect on conceiving.\n\nIf you just want to have sex, do what you like best.

Yes you can get pregnant, but personally I think you're just freaking out. Sounds like more of a mental than physical issue with you.

Well, I asked a similar question, and the helpful people who answered said that since stress isn't good for a baby, your body will prevent you from getting a period because it doesn't want you pregnant if you're stressed.  It can also be environment changes, horomones, etc.  Just relax, and if you want, go see your doctor/gynacologist (sp?).

depends, if you are female then that depends on your ovaries and tubes, or his semen. If you are a man, then I will have to yes, it is hard to get pregnant.

30-35% chance of becoming pregnant.  First, you have to ovulate at the right time.  Then you have to have intercourse at the right time and the sperm have to find their way to the correct fallopian tube which has the ovulating ovary at the end.  The sperm are fighting pH and all kinds of other "killer" stuff in your vagina, cervix, and uterus.  Half of them die for the "good" of the others and it's a rough time.  Finally, they have to break through the egg's defenses.  So, if everything was perfectly timed, then you could be pregnant.  It's almost like a game of chance.\n\nGood luck!

Yes, it's happened before. Didn't you hear of the 60some woman getting pregnant?\nBut every person has a different chance of getting pregnent, even young women can have trouble getting pregnant, so it's hard to give you a percentage. Of course, it depends on the amount of sex too.\nAnd it doesn't matter whether or not you look old, gray hairs don't keep you from getting pregnent.

Pregnancy only occurs when a sufficient number of sperm cells meet up with a viable ovum -- either in a woman's reproductive tract (_in_vivo_ fertilization, usually occuring in the Fallopian Tubes) or in a laboratory apparatus (_in_vitro_ fertilization), and then the egg implants in the woman's uterus.\n\nJust touching sperm cells with the hands does not cause pregnancy.

When my husband and I were first trying to get pregnant it took us well over a year. We were assuming our most "fertile" days were during  the incorrect week of my cycle. Every woman is different. Buy an ovulation kit or monitor. We purchased one and were pregnant within a month. Turns out of I was ovulating at an "odd" time based off of my cycle. They work great and will give you the two best days to conceive.

the earth's population is increasing every minute i do not see the reasons for having a big family these days. Everything is expensive too, so having just the one is ok to me, plus carrying a pregnancy for nine months isn't always easy and the birth effects people in different ways. One to me is plenty to be getting on with.

as a nurse,and someone who is experiencing fertility problems myself, i would recommend seeing your ob/gyn asap if you plan to try and conceive again. as i'm sure you know, trying to conceive may take a few years, and you especially may encounter difficulty since you had a difficult time the first time. you mentioned that you used "assisted reproductive technology", so i assume that you used clomid, had the full workup and all that? although 42 is by no means old, after the age of 35, the risk of down's syndrome increases dramatically. it would be in your best interest to have a meeting with your ob/gyn to discuss what you must do to become pregnant as soon as possible. Best of luck to you and your husband!!
