ok the question is...how soon did you concieve your 2nd child once you decided to go for it?

I didn't try and never have. Ds was 10 months when I found out I was having dd. We threw caution to the wind once and now have our gorgeous 5 and a half year old!

Sorry to hear that Mishi xxx

ImuststopdrinkingBlossomhill · 14/02/2005 21:34

Wanted to add know how lucky we were too.

Hulababy · 14/02/2005 21:38

Well I am currwently mid cycle of month 6 of TTC #2, so I will reply again once I find out how long it takes!

DD is now 2y 10m and she took ages to be concieved: 15 months, early mc, and then another 15 months. Maybe we are not doing it right

lilsmum · 14/02/2005 21:39

the thing is... it took 6 mth to concieve dd (12mth old now) and i am thinking about no2 but dont want to get pregnant right away really, but then if it did take time then i would want to start trying now iykwim (very confusing i know!!)do you think its true that it is much easier to get pregnant 2nd time round?

This is going to sound awful but the last thing I wanted when ds was 10 months was another baby.
Was using the cap and 1 day we just didn't use it. Result - dd, after 1 time of unprotected sex. So I was obviously quite fertile.
Maybe it helped that I wasn't using anything like the pill that would muck about with your cycle.

ImuststopdrinkingBlossomhill · 14/02/2005 21:42

Yes fingers crossed for you Hula. Sending lots of babydust your way *>

ImuststopdrinkingBlossomhill · 14/02/2005 21:43

You can tell I have been drinking. Also meant to add that adore dd and couldn't be without her!

Lockets do think it has something to do with it definitely.
Really scared actually as having my coil taken out in 2 weeks and god knwos what I am going to do. Really feel that my family is complete but can't persuade dh to have the snip (wimp )

Moomin · 14/02/2005 21:49

it's a bit of a 'how long's a piece of string' question - everyone is completely different.
dd took 4 months, no2 is being a little bit more elusive - 2 years and counting... good luck with whatever you decide.

goreousgirl · 14/02/2005 21:49

7 months exactly for both for me, and 1 try each time for a friend of mine - doesn't nature work in funny ways?

soapbox · 14/02/2005 21:50

1 night wonder - suffice to say that DS was born exactly 9 months after my rather drunken birthday party

Sooner than planned but a wonderful surprise

lilsmum · 14/02/2005 21:50

well also the thing is i was on combined but gave me terrible visual migraine so i went on the mini pill...that just sent me in to a major moody cow (really nasty) so i have come off that now and g.p has said if mini pill was no good then that would be the end of the pill for me!!! i do want no2 so i dont want to mess my body up with the injection, couldnt be doing with the cap at all!! so that leaves condoms really so thought seeing as though i do no2 i might just leave it to fate to decide lol, and i suppose if i did get pregnant straight away i would just have to accept it and get on with the situation, i think its worse because this will be planned and i will KNOW whats to come iykwim!!! with dd i didnt know what was heading my way (even though dd is an angel!!) so i was living in fairy land!!! what do you all think? i know i am probably thinking about it all too much but i am that kind of person i guess

sorry for the waffling lol

For us it was about 6 months.

Hulababy · 14/02/2005 21:52

I also wonder wheher things likeke the pill actually do have an effect on initial fertility. I know GPs say it doesn't but I have to say that I'm not convinced. I know that in the first few months after stopping the pill last time, it took a while for my cycle to get back to normal. Did this time too.

WestCountryLass · 14/02/2005 22:01

7 months later.

tortoiseshell · 14/02/2005 22:05

2 months.
