I'm trying to conceive #4 and am on cycle 8

With #1 it took just under three years
With #2 it happened on cycle 2
And #3 came about on cycle 11

Quite a discrepancy in times taken so I dare not even hazard a guess at how long this one is going to take!

Over to you...

3rd cycle both times.

I feel very very VERY lucky!

sahmbles · 08/08/2013 13:17

1st cycle with number 1,
1st cycle with number 2 (miscarried Hmm), 2nd cycle with number 3.

This was despite being in mid-late 30s with an irregular cycle. Used Billings method (CM).

Consider myself incredibly lucky. But now our family is complete I'm terrified of getting pregnant!

WillSingForCake · 08/08/2013 15:26

3rd cycle with number 1
4th cycle with number 2

Just to add balance I have not yet conceived and am on cycle 30. So if there is anyone out there who has conceived on 30 plus cycles do pop in!

rabbitonthemoon · 08/08/2013 15:28

Oh sorry desire, just realised it took you nearly three years for number 1. Did you get there naturally? Maybe there is hope for me yet!

resipsa · 08/08/2013 16:49

DD - 12th
MMC - 5th
DC2 - 15 and counting...

crazyhead · 08/08/2013 18:27

first cycle both time (27weeks pg now with DC2) in my mid-late 30s. Clearly extremely lucky

Stillhopingstillhere · 08/08/2013 18:47

1st cycle ds
Still trying ten months in for dc2. Been told it won't happen naturally for us due to extreme male factor infertility. No idea how ds happened and still stunned at the news.

eurochick · 08/08/2013 19:09

I'm on cycle 34 and still no baby! I got pregnant with the help of IVF on cycle 28 but miscarried.

Bythebeach · 08/08/2013 19:18

DS1 accidental...the one time in a 10 year relationship took a risk
DS2 first cycle
DS3 first cycle

My mother and all her sisters were the same but she only recently mentioned it!!!

Bythebeach · 08/08/2013 19:20

Ps I do feel very very blessed...

no1childminder · 08/08/2013 19:25

1st pg 1st cycle (but ended in mmc)
2nd pg 6th cycle (month 1st pg was due)
3rd pg 1st cycle

Writerwannabe83 · 08/08/2013 20:27

1st cycle with baby number one. We were very lucky and shocked!

apprenticemamma · 08/08/2013 20:34

hi there three. Wow looking at your stats goes to show how nothing is definite and clearly for u seems to be quicker with practice. 6 cycles for ds 1 was off the pill but not actively ttc...aged 32 then. dc 2 was 5 or 6 cycles using opk and then in last three months smep. Aged 35 now & 10 weeks preg. Good luck Wink

ThreeFromDesire · 08/08/2013 20:58

Aw thanks for adding your stats on here. I only thought after I posted that it might have been better and more sensitive to have put it in another section Blush

rabbit yes it happened naturally eventually. All three were tried for babies and I kept notes/a journal on each conception and pregnancy. Really nice to look over now they are here and also the eldest has looked at hers (only the thoughts diary not the fertility logs lol) and she said it makes her feel really loved and wanted. This time is the first time I have used opks and preseed and bbt charting etc so will see how long this time. Obviously hoping for cycle eight success lol.

Don't give up hope, just keep going! Smile good luck
