Ladies over 35- how long did it take you to conceive?

We are trying for our first and going into the 6th month. Each cycle adds a little more anxiety. I'm 35 and have never been pregnant. DH also has no children. Using ovulation kits and BBT.

I was wondering how many cycles it took you to conceive when you were over 35. Especially a first pregnancy. I know everyone is different but it helps to hear other people's stories.

Straight away. However it was earlier than the app said I was ovulating that he was conceived, so basically I think you should have sex everyday as soon as your period stops

11 months first time. 6 months the second.

Took me six months, when I was 35; daughter born in October 1991 when I was 36.

Thank you for your responses. I managed to conceive after one year. This happened after getting an endometrial polyp removed (on our first try after the surgery).
