Sorry to hear about your recent loss hun. We were IVF people but anyway. We had a loss in April, cycled again with frosties in June and no go. Then a fresh cycle in November and were lucky enough to have a healthy PG resulting in DS now 14 months. I hope it is a quick wait for you xx
Took me 12 months to the day after coming off the pill. Will be interested to see how long it takes me IF we decide to have one after coming off implanon. (That's currently a BIG IF)
With my DS is was 10 months of no contraception but not actively "trying" - plus 10 months of conciously tracking "O" and trying hard (so 20 months to answer your question) DH was finally discovered to have some semen issues and we concieved after 3 months of menevit and chinese herbal teas. With this bubba it was 2 months we were a bit surprised! We definitely expected it to take longer!
with DD it took 3 months and this pregnancy 5 months. i have endo and pcos, so was a surprise that it happened relatively quickly as was told by my specialist that i would most likely need some kind of assistance...
I am one of those revolting people who fell pg straight away I think we were officially trying for about 10 days and a couple of weeks later I got a positive test so only 1 month.
I hope it happens again quickly for you when you're ready to start trying again.....
We started investigating why we weren't falling pregnant in 1998. We discovered both male and female infertility issues, but mine were the most problematic [azospermia] (sp?) which caused me to have problems with raising a child other than my own biological offspring. That took 5yr of counselling and once I accepted that although s/he wouldn't be biologically connected we'd still have a deep relationship, it took another few years of IUI and IVF cycles to result in the birth of our son in July. We still have known-donor sperm in storage and are debating if we should go again, but her age is now a factor, which is a subject for another thread.
I'm another who is pretty fertile... Two months off the pill for DD, didn't go back on it in between, AF returned when DD was around 5mths and we were pg two months later.
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
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
