Obviously you seem very determined to have a baby at such a young age, but I certainly hope the physician can give you a complete exam and some good advice. Which I would consider to be the reasons you should wait and not focus on fertility, pregnancy or raising a child at this time in your life. [ Nallie's advice column | Ask Nallie A Question ]

On the other hand, there's plenty of factors which could lower your chance and in reality, it has only almost been a year - it's the luck of the draw. Some people can get pregnant first time, whereas others can take years.
Do either of you:
Smoke?
Suffer from stress?
Drink?
Have an unhealthy diet?
There's tonnes of things to think about (alot more than stated above) - it's not as simple as just having sex for some people, unfortunately.
If you get tests and both come back clear, just be patient.
I'd also like to point out, don't have sex every single day and don't just make it about trying to conceive. Enjoy it, don't put your body under stress and take it as it comes. Your time will come. [ thelaura's advice column | Ask thelaura A Question ]
