How long did it take you to fall pregnant??

[Shanti]

Yeah Cricket that's what DH and I are going to do..... once we finally have first baby, we are not going to go onto contraception and just 'see what happens' for number 2! knowing that it could take a few months again!!! Or maybe it won't? If it happens straight away we'll be stoked!!!

I think cos' it's taken us quite a few months now to fall pregnant for first bub, at least we won't be expecting it to happen immediately for our 2nd.... we'll be more realistic about it.

(we're young, healthy, ovulate every cycle, BD often, and no reasons why we aren't conceiving... just not our lucky month yet)

Unplanned but had been off the pill for 3 weeks.

2.5 years for me. Not planned but weren't preventing either as since I was diagnosed with endo and both tubes blocked and would need IVF to get pregnant, I figured DP & I didn't need contraception. So a miracle and nice surprise Hopefully it has cleared the way for number 2.

DD took us 8 months after coming off the pill.

#2 took us 3 months coming off the pill

I hope i manage to get my BFP as quick as some of you This is my first cycle and i think i already have my hopes up that it will happen, no harm in keeping positive right........

9 cycles for us - all charted - I have a slightly long cycle, but I do ovulate every month and we did plenty of correctly timed BD'ing. In fact the cycle I fell was one where I had very little hope as I had to go away at CD16... hadn't even tested until AF was 2 days late (which was unheard of at that stage!).

I would say that sometimes it seems that everyone else is falling straight away which makes you question yourself. Out of my closest friends, 2 of them fell straight away and myself and another took 9 months and 12 months.

Preg 1: second month (v surprised given I was 36 at the time)
Preg 2: about six months but wasn't charting or taking ANY notice of dates so may have been quicker if I had.
