Not sure where to post this?

Took me 6 months ttc my DS and now i'm ttc #2. Just wondered in comparison to your first did it take longer? less time? or are you still waiting?

I know I was pretty lucky it only taking 6 months before, but still it stressed me out every month, and I'm dreading the whole waiting game again....

1st about two months, 2nd five months, that was 3 yrs later.

DS - 18 months. I came off the pill and it took well over a year for things to settle down which was very frustrating.

Current pg - 1 month of actively trying. That was a bit of a surprise as was expecting it to take a lot longer!

I also think my system was kicked into action after DS1

Same for both- five or six months.
I find boutique hotel minibreaks help speed things along- obviously they take more planning when you already have a DC !

I fell pregnant with DS while on the pill so he was a VERY nice suprise, DD took 18 months to conceive and I am now 33+ weeks pregnant with DS #2 and fell pregnant after a contraception accident but again am VERY VERY happy.

I was diagnosed with PCOS just after having DS so was told that falling pregnant again naturally would be very hard but I have had 2 (almost 3) beautiful healthy babies.

Good luck all of those who are ttc at the moment, it will happen

first time - over 3 years
2nd time 2 and half years.

Got fed up with the monthly heartache and decided in March to DTD every night for a week after period had ended. Currently 23/40

Good luck!

Dd was conceived by accident after one month of being together! She is 6. I came off the coil in November 2009 and got pregnant in may of this year, so around 18 months to t t c number two. I'm sure the coil takes quite a long time to recover from as I had the hormonal one, with no periods for 3.5 years! DP was exhausted

bloombloombell · 06/09/2011 20:39

DC 1 took 8 months
DC 2 took no trying at all, immediately
DC 3 currently 36 weeks pregnant took 6 months

iskra · 06/09/2011 20:53
