Lost, help!

Ok, so a lot is on my mind lately and I have been having up and down feelings of ttc. I feel like it just won’t happen. That maybe I’m not lucky enough and something may be wrong?

I have been off the pill since December 2016. We were just letting faith take it direction on when we get pregnant. Never tracked a single thing until this year.

I have only just recently this past month done opks after my period. I don’t track much else besides physical symptoms but am looking into getting a bbt thermometer (any suggestions welcomed). Beforehand I would just track anything symptoms wise that I could to help the app predict when I ovulate and go from there.

Now, I was due for an annual exam this past August and never went, just in hopes of getting my bfp. It is now four months later and I have not gone still. Also, I’ve moved 45mins away from my previous doc so there’s that headache of finding a new one closer.

What I really want to know is, when is it an appropriate time to get myself and my husband tested to see if anything could be preventing us from getting pregnant?! I feel if the doc asks and I mention we are half-assing she may tell me to do everything that I can for however many months or a year and come back. Maybe I’m overthinking.

Side note: I don’t have a high desire for sex so the initiation has never been me and until this year that’s been perfectly ok with him. Long story short on this, I have never been initiator and find it awkward to do so with the exception of playful suggestions of having sex around my fertile window according to the app.

So sorry for this long and all over the place post! But I appreciate all your comments and support 😊
