Try not to freak out too much until you can talk to your doc. He/she should be able to make some kind of recommendation on what options you have. If the dr is your OB-GYN, it would be a good idea for you to start seeing someone who specializes in infertility (IF), like a Reproductive Endocrinologist (RE). They specialize in this more than your regular OB-GYN. And like kblythe said, I agree that it's better to know why it hasn't happened for you yet. Lots of couples are told they have "unexplained infertility" which I think would be even more frustrating.

Also know that you're not alone in your sadness and frustration. These forums are full of women who know exactly what you're going through. I myself feel surrounded by friends who seem to get pregnant as often as they want just by thinking about it. WE GET IT! Post and read as much as you need to, there are lots of threads for all kinds of questions and issues.

Good luck!
