How long did it take to conceive?

[cbmb12]

Hi all - I am brand new here (this is my very first post) and have just decided to start TTC this month.
I am 29, my husband is 31... I was wondering how long it took all of you to get pregnant (if you have managed)?

Do any of you have any tips on coping with the two week wait?

Thanks cb! Ah I had/have ibs type symptoms with dd and this bfp!! So sounds positive! I don't have ibs tho so wouldn't normally get it!

Confuzzed don't be disheartened it took me a long time to get this bfp it will happen some people are just lucky! I was first time but not second! Will happen when it's supposed to...that's what I tried to tell myself while pulling my hair out!!

Congrats mini!

Cb my only advice is try not to symptom spot I leant this the hard way as was convinced one month I was pg even had spotting which I never have unless pg!! But alas no bfp! Taught me an important lesson and honestly didn't symptom spot after that!!

First time round, first time we decided to stop using contraception. Second child, second cycle.

Age 29, 15 months and still trying! Good luck!

Pg1 two months
Pg 2 one year
Pg 3 was not trying.

Symptom spotting definitely a mistake as I am prone to getting random pains/aches/fatigue/nausea etc! But I am finding it impossible not to do.... Must be more disciplined!

DC1 - 16 months
DC2 - 6 months or first month after stopping breastfeeding, depending on how you look at it!
Hope it happens for you soon.

11 months, dc1, age 30 (when I started trying). turned out I had underactive thyroid - once that was medicated I got pg within a month of meds taking effect.

DC1- accident, once
DC2- (this time on purpose), once
DC3- 3yrs
DC4- a week
DC5- 2yrs
Sometimes I conceive very quickly, other times it takes years

17 - accident and lost did at 27wks
28 D's 8months
32 still TTC on our 14 month

3 years and counting.

22 months ttc dd at age 37 ( I have pcos so thought it might take a while.)
currently been ttc dc2 for 8 months at aged 39.

First pregnancy - 1.5 years of near constant shagging resulting in early mc.

Second pregnancy - couple of weeks of not really trying. Neither of us can even remember having sex around the time ds must have been conceived .

What I have learnt from all this is that TTC is a pita and not an experience I would ever like to repeat.

Hth

Anything from accident (ie before trying) to 6 years. I have 4 DC.

Not yet. I'm 36 and on C7 or 8. To be fair some months we haven't 'tried' all that often.

Re 2ww. I made a rule after c3 to not test until late. Rules out a lot of disappointment. Somehow getting a bfn feels worse than af arriving.

18 about 4mths (unplanned but on no contraception)
22 about 15mths (planned, had been on depo)
Currently ttc #3 but only just come off pill 11d ago

Good luck x

3 years at 28
2 months at 33

5 years.4 x ivf

Good luck!

Op are you having fertility treatment?

Pg 1 - a month, mc (I was 25)
Pg 2 - 3 years, dd is now 6 (I was 28)
Pg 3 - unplanned, ds is now 3 (i was 31)

I really recommend 'taking charge of your fertility' www.amazon.co.uk/Taking-Charge-Your-Fertility-Reproductive/dp/0091887585

6 months each time
