How old are you sweets? This can make a difference in the attitude of the GP.........

Usually the first step a GP will take is to get you to have a blood test to make sure for 100% that you are postively ovulating.......ie he will send you off for a blood test on a certain day in your cycle to measure for the particular hormone that proves you ovulated.

Are you charting? Taking temps/timing your baby-making? If so, take these along with you to your GP so he can see that you are already maximising your chances.......

Good luck........

(BTW, we started investigating after about 9 months......at my insistence........because I had been charting and also I was "old" (over 30) and had been on the pill for so long.........my GP accomodated.........but if yours is reticent, FIB! Tell him you have been trying for 12 months already!!)
