[quote=Anonymous]My husband and I have been actively trying for 7 months now. We are both very impatient to conceive, me especially (he needed a whole year longer than I did to feel ready for kids, so it feels like I've been at this forever).

I'm wondering when it's the right time to seek testing. I know in the grand scheme of things 7 months is not long at all but it's getting so frustrating seeing month after month go by. I've personally never known anyone who has taken longer than 6 months to conceive that didn't have a fertility issue requiring treatment, so I'm starting to suspect something might be going on. Obviously, that is just my personal experience and has no bearing on the actual probability of us needing treatment. Still, its freaking me out!

Is it too early to go in for some testing? Am I silly for suspecting problems too soon? I will add that my regular healthcare provider is a midwifery practice that I love (birthcare) and I don't think they handle any of that stuff, so I'm anxious about being referred elsewhere.

Any advice or support?[/quote]
