How long to conceive at 37?

Hi! Hope everyone is well. I am wondering about what is 'normal' with regards to conception at age 37! I conceived in April 2019 by surprise and unplanned - however in July 2019 I suffered a miscarriage at 12 weeks. Obviously it was a very upsetting time despite the pregnancy being unplanned. We have been trying to conceive ever since with no luck - I have regular periods so can time my ovulation but we don't seem to be getting anywhere. Last month I was 4 days late for my period and my period was SO heavy - I was wondering if that could have been significant? Anyway - just wondering how long it took other people at my age and if I should be getting checked out? Thanks! Smile

Hi in my 20s with my 1st 3 children I conceived on the 1st or 2nd month.

At 33 I conceived 1st month with another child.

At 37 it took me 7 months to conceive my last one . It'll happen!

Hi there. I am 37 years old and have been TTC for 9 months now. I got pregnant with my dad at 35 after five months of TTC. I went to the Dr and they said it can take up to a year for s couple to conceive. Hope that helps.
