If you found it easy to conceive your first...

[Algor1thm]

...did you find it as easy for subsequent conceptions?

We are 3.5 years older now and will be ttc soon. First pregnancy, fell pregnant 1st month and had a very straightforward pregnancy. Very thankful. Worried it might not be as easy this time!

I feel the same as you, about to come off my pill to try for our second but the first literally couldn’t have gone any better. Got pregnant quickly, a bit sick for a few weeks but nothing major, no real pain in pregnancy at all, never had any bleeding or any scares, healthy baby, a baby that sleeps a lot too! Now having such awful negative thoughts about how I can’t be that lucky a second time. I’m sure plenty of people are though! I was anxious the whole way through last time and felt like I didn’t properly take a deep breath until I saw him at the end of it all so I slightly don’t want to step back into that again 😩

Nope. 1 ectopic pregnancy and 4 miscarriages when trying for our 2nd. We got there in the end though but it was a really crap few years. It was straight away with our first.

Yes, but not the third.

One of the reasons I'm put off having a second. We conceived first try, everything ran smoothly.
Feel like 2nd surely can't be as perfect!

First try resulted in DD1.
When DD1 was 8 months old, we were actively trying to avoid pregnancy and somehow ended up with DD2 (so glad we did as she's just amazing)

1st pregnancy 1st month
2nd pregnancy about to start trying but already pregnant.
3rd pregnancy (7 years after 1st) 1st month mc @ 6 weeks
4th pregnancy (2nd month post mc) 1st month.
Good luck op.x

Should add second pregnancy was 21 months after first.

I got pregnant second month of trying with DD1, first month of trying with DD2, 2 years later. I was 31 & 33.

The first time, unplanned. The second time planned, conceived straight away.
The third time, unplanned conceived even with an iud just as the second child was 1 year old. Mr Ozy had a vasectomy!

Nope. I ended up with secondary infertility and it took 8 years.

First time unplanned
Second conceived within two months
Third secondary infertility - over three years
