How long did it take you to conceive?

[Dippydodah]

Hi. Planning for the year ahead/life! Wondering how long it took you to conceive?
I took clomid last time as I was anovulatory (PCOS). Twins 2 in May. Don’t want to leave a large age gap. Deciding when to TTC...

Bet you can’t wait to see that baby Long

Three nights. The BFP was a bit of a shock!

10 months in total, and 3rd month on clomid as I have PCO and irregular cycles. DD only 10 weeks old and already I'm worried it will take ages to conceive baby no.2 😬

First pregnancy took 9 months, ended in mc during first trimester, second pregnancy first month of trying again; which is 12 months after we first started trying- fingers crossed this one sticks 🤞🏻

With ds1 it took 11 months.

With ds2 it took the only night in a month we did actually dtd. We were not trying at all.

6 cycles, conceived 3 times in that time and lost 2 of them. 3rd one stuck.

DCs 1 and 2 - first month of trying
DC3 - surprise baby!

I have pcos. 2 months for both pregnancies

3 months.

First cycle at 27
Third cycle at 29
Second cycle at 30
First cycle at 36

Been very lucky!

First cycle, which was a bit of a surprise to us

6 cycles before a bfp (age 29)
15 weeks today

We had a month when (copper) coil came out and we were casually not preventing rather than trying, then I think it was a grand total of 5 weeks of regular dtd (every 2-3 days) . I found out about 7 days before period due so must have ovulated reasonably early.

Think we were incredibly lucky as GP told me the average couple takes 8 months to conceive.

I met my partner on the 3rd August and found out I was pregnant on the 22nd Sept, and I was 5 weeks pregnant (DS is 4 in may)...then when DS was 5 months old we decided to try again and a month later I found out I was having DS2 who will be 3 in August. So now we've decided to wait a long while before trying again since he only has to look at me funny and I get pregnant lol. And a LOT of family members have started having multiples (and my mum is a twin too) so hells nah is it happening yet for us lol!! Two babies in 15 months is plenty for me right now lol. X

I came off the mini pill half way through my honeymoon in Disney and came back pregnant so not long at all xx

18 months - we were at the stage of seeking treatment.

Currently 9 weeks

#1 took 26 months, got pregnant on cycle 8 of clomid.
#2 was first 'go' off contraception beige we started TTC properly.

• before

2 months

I didn't take anything/have IVF.

2 years for first; about 5 years for second.

Good luck.

1st pregnancy - 1st month (MMC)
2nd pregnancy - 1st month
3rd pregnancy - 1 night (surprise!)

Wanted to add that I took royal jelly and evening primrose oil capsules for a few weeks before conceiving, which I’m sure helped

1st month for all 4 of mine, sent dh off for the snip a month after dc4 was born!

Both times first month off birth control.

Stopped taking my pill and that month got pregnant with the first. Then with my second (8 years later and due in just over a month) I didn't go back for my depo injection which I had been on for 7 years and the next month fell pregnant

5 years no joy, 1st round of ivf was successful. No actual reason for not conceiving, just one of those things!
