If you conceived straight away with DC1...how long with DC2?

I know this has been done before, but can't find the threads. We conceived DS first month of trying and are going to TTC#2 this year. Just wondering how long others have taken to conceive 2nd time around when it was v.quick first time? (I mean very quick to conceive, not conceived by a quickie! - even if it was!)

(Just wondering...lack of sleep, libido, time, unshaved legs )

Serves me right for being smug the first time.

thanks all! I love these stories! I know next time it could take forever, but gives me hope that it could be just as quick.

ds1 was conceived about 2 weeks of me saying, "Let's think about having a baby".

Ds2 was the product of having sex for the first time in two months.

firsttimemama · 15/04/2008 21:32

Same as scampmum - only did it once that month too and we weren't even trying!
