What age were you when you had your first baby?
How long did it take to conceive?
And finally... would you change anything? As in would you have started TTC earlier/later?

I'm 34, don't have any children (yet) and am currently TTC #1. I don't regret not starting earlier as it's only now that I feel ready to start a family x

28 when first conceived, pregnant within 2 months but ended in MMC at 3 months pregnant.
Second pregnancy conceived at 29, everything ok, pregnant within 2 months again.
Wouldn't have changed timing as had house, career, marriage sorted by then.

I was 28 with first, very lucky and only took 3 months.

Second time was 30 and took 2 months.

Timing was great for us x

I was 28 when I conceived my first, 29 when I had him. It took 11 months to get pregnant.

I wouldn't change the timing at all, DH & I had been married a couple of years, had bought a house, and I was in a good place in my career to take maternity leave.

31 when I conceived, 32 when I had him. Conceived 1st month.

Would have started trying later. Was 1 month too early for occupational mat pay.

Im 38 TTC now had a MC when I was 20 at 9 weeks
Wish I had started earlier but just hadnt met any one and was single for a very long time.

I conceived at 28 and 30, both times in the first month of trying, we were very lucky. Wouldn't change anything.

Baby born at 30

3 months but weren't actively trying (miracle baby as I hadn't been able to conceive for 12 years previously)

Only thing I would change is we would have got married sooner, we pretty much knew from the start we'd marry so I wish we did before bub was conceived
