Problems with Carbonation

My most recent beer was really low in carbonation. I thought maybe that i was allowing too much yeast to settle out of the beer when i put it in to the bottling bucket. I put the suggested corn sugar amount in the recipe and it has been stored at about 68 degrees for a little under two weeks. Any help would be appreciated.
 
Yeast settling may not be the culprit.  How many bottles have you checked? 
 
Patience is my suggestion.  I've had beer that took a while to carbonate.  Two more weeks of bottle conditioning will probably be all that is needed.  I usually don't touch one until three weeks after bottling, because I know that it isn't usually ready until then.
 
Thank you guys. I will try to be more patient because i did check my bottle a little early. KernelCrush I have only checked one bottle.
