With your first pregnancy if you were TTC, and how old were you?

I know up to a year is normal, I know it’s dependent on many factors, but I’m just nosey and curious really!

Fell in Sept 2016 aged 30 a month after coming off the pill. Had a miscarriage at 6 weeks, tried for almost 18 months but I’d stopped ovulating. Fell this Feb after ovarian drilling and a laparoscopy, now am 33 and almost 37 weeks....

37 and got pregnant first month. I tracked ovulation with the clear blue digital ovulation tests

lifechangesforever · 11/10/2018 14:33

Stopped using contraception 4 years before we conceived.. became pregnant at 29.

We weren't actively trying but more a case of 'if it happens, we'll be happy' but there wasn't a ticking time clock.

QueenOfMyWorld · 11/10/2018 14:35

2 months at 32 yrs

TheMagicTorch · 11/10/2018 14:39
