How long did it take you to fall pregnant?

DD1 4months
DD2 came of the pill as I was pregnant so didn't try at all was actually preventing
This one (including m/c x2 and then an ectopic pregnancy all up 2.6years

For DS it took 3 months after being on the pill for 2 years

for my angel bubba it took 4 cycles after stopping the pill after 3 months

2 cycles for this bubba HTH

1st attempt with DD, beginners luck!
3 cycles with DS1 (incl. an early miscarriage),
1st cycle with DS2.

13 months for DD - my cycle length varied so probably just less than 13
Still TTC # 2 and just hit the 2 year mark - cycle length varies but probably less than 24

All but 5 years. After 11 lots of fertitlity treatments our naturally conceived miracle decided to make her appearance :D

it took me 4yrs of actively trying to get my first pregnancy, i m/c at 11wks i then had a period and the month after that i was pregnant again and had a healthy little boy

This time around it took me 11 months of trying after having the implanon for not quite a year

Goodluck hun xoxo

I am also blessed to have decided to "see what happens" and then "Oh thats what happens" both times, first cycle. both times thinking it would take a while= which resulted in me being 20 weeks pregnant at my wedding (i am from a very catholic wedding). I think these babies mostly object to plans...from conception to birth and beyond.
Good luck.

I am also one of those 'peoples' who gets UTD straight away :(
i put a :( because it takes then fun out of telling people you are TTC!

6 months with ds and so far we've been trying to conceive #2 for 5 mths, although I'm thinking it's gone take a while cause my dh isn't even here for the next 2 cycles rofl!!!!

Great thread...I used to google stuff like this! We started trying Dec 08, fell pregnant April 09 so 5 cycles! Which felt like an eternity so I feel for everyone who is still trying after years. Unfortunately we lost that little bub in June 09 and had just one period after my d & c before conceiving our son! Oh and I should add I charted the whole time and knew when I was ovulating so we were not flying by the seat of our pants iykwim :-)

DD1 took 8 months and was off the pill for a year - I think..
DS1 took almost 12 months and I was off the pill for 14 months..


Best wishes ladies and heaps of baby dust!!!

Dont tell many people this as not many want to hear...Also pre read all the posts to make sure i wasnt going to be the only 'very fertile' one to reply

DD1: 1st month
M/c: 2nd month
DD2: 1st month after 2x D&C for the M/c
DS1: Ooops 3months before we were going to try
Ectopic: 1st month trying
Bellybaby: 1st month after ectopic

So for 6 pregnancies we have 'tried' 7times... Like someone else said, makes trying terrible borning!!! DH feels very ripped off hehe,thankfully pregnancy DTD makes up for it :redface:

Good luck and i only share my story as it is possible to fall straight after a loss and even surgury.

5 years, one miscarriage, 1 IUI cycle and 1 successful IVF cycle!
DD was born exactly 6 years and 4 months after coming off the pill.

I'm now 25 and went off the pill about 18 months before we started TTC, just used other methods of BC.
Once we started TTC, it was on the 4th cycle that we fell pg...

4 months doesnt sound like much but during those 4 months it felt like forever. How the ladies who have been trying for years and years have the strength to continue, I take my hat off to you, your a true inspiration!

for my first i wasnt trying and he was a surprise with my second three months

DD - First month trying
DS - 3 months

Never had to try with my other kids, all just happened.

This one 11 months.

Hope it happens soon.

DS1-fell while on the pill
DS2-9mths of ttc
DS3-1st month ttc
M/C-oops just the one time
oops condom broke so only one time ended in Termination at 6 weeks.
Remarried 9 years later
DD1-5 months ttc lost her at 20 weeks
DD2-14 months ttc ended up doing 1 round of ivf worked 1st go she is due in march.
So as you can see i have fallen pregnant at a sniff of sperm and also had some trouble proberbly due to age and DH sperm issues.
