This is utterly ridiculous but Google is shit at 'advice' and I need some real people..

How long did it take you to conceive first time? Google sets unrealistic expectations and I'm sick of feeling crap because of it..

I am TTC baby no1 and I need some real answers in how long it took, or if you are still trying?

✨Thank you

First month for me with DC1. But for several of my friends (with no fertility issues) it took about a year of trying.

21 cycles and counting...

4 years for me. And only conceived with ivf.

5 years for my first, although that is due to infertility

First month.

We both had so many things against us (health and age mostly) that we had agreed to give it a year. It was a shock to conceive the first month we tried.

First time with DS.

3rd time lucky so two failed conception cycles for these twins now 28+2.

I've never taken any contraceptive pills so not sure if that helped or not.

4 months first time, just conceived 2nd on first time. Hoping all goes okay 🤞🏻

It took us 11 months. And 2 early MCs along the way. Sending you lots of luck 👶🏼 xx
