2 months at 36 2 years at 38 just scrapped in with my DS in December before I was 40 in Jan.

3 years to conceive dc1 when I was 36, and conceived dc2 at age 40 on the first attempt! Good luck: I am currently boggling over whether to try for a third now I'm 41!

I started ttc no 2 at 36. My DS was conceived after 1 month off the pill when I was 25 so I was anticipating any problems. DD was finally conceived when I was 40 and born when I was 41

41 about 20 mins Wink (twice but the first didn't implant)

First month at 38

RupertsMum2 · 20/04/2017 21:45

First month at 38 and 39 but both mc 's then 18 months before we gave up trying and promptly conceived Ds3 at almost 42,

Took 3 years with dd1, had her when I was almost 38, dd2 was the first month and had her aged 40, we only had sex once and I showered straight afterwards so was quite surprised, I think the determination gene was well embedded and she's still the same now aged 2 whereas my 4 year old who took 3 years to conceive is a lazy so and so!
I wonder if my body worked its way through all the lazy gened eggs first and saved the feisty buggers for a last ditch attempt?😊

6 months at 37 but tbh we didn't really know what we were doing until I read a book and realised there was an 'optimum' time for dtd each month Blush. Once that was sorted, conceived the following month.

1st try at 42 - like a PP - much to DH's disgust as he was hoping for lots of 'trying' Grin
