31 - 1st month, was actively trying

Very lucky. Although even at 38 and with a coil fitted im terrified of having an accident. Im done with babies.

DS was unplanned, we had been together a few weeks when I found out i was having him. I was 20. Miracle baby because I couldn't have any more.

fancyfrogs · 14/08/2020 06:24

25 - 5 months but 3 cycles (irregular)

Everyone assumes infertility is about falling pg. It isn’t.

33 Baby 1: Miscarried 17 weeks
33 Baby 2: 7/8 weeks
33 Baby 3: 36.5 weeks (phew)
36 Baby 4: 12 weeks
36 Baby 5: 6/7 weeks
37 Baby 6: 27 weeks (didn’t survive)
37 Baby 7: 5 weeks
37 Baby 8: 41.5 weeks!!!!

I have never had unprotected sex without getting pregnant. Not such a boast taking the foregoing into account is it.

Baby 1 - 2 years trying. IVF #1 successful. Age 35.

Baby 2 - 18 months trying which included #2 and #3 IVF cycles (5 separate embryo transfer cycles attempted). Age 38. Now pregnant and £20k less rich! ;-)

Indoctro · 14/08/2020 07:47

Both children 1st attempt at trying. So less that a month . I was 34 then 36 2nd time

GoshHashana · 14/08/2020 08:02

Not everybody assumes that, TurnUp. A lot of people understand through their own experience or from friends. It's awful.

Same here! I have the coil but I got pregnant without trying both of my pregnancies, I was even on the pill the second time and I'm terrified of getting pregnant again.

I have two beautiful babies, it's time to start having neices and nephews I can give back! 🤣

CoalCraft · 14/08/2020 08:33

I was 25, conceived on second cycle after stopping the pill.

CD28 · 14/08/2020 08:37

3 weeks and 28

Sunshine1235 · 14/08/2020 08:42

1st pregnancy (ended in miscarriage) - 3 months, aged 28
DC1 - 4 months, aged 29
DC2 - 2 months, aged 31
Dc3 - 1st cycle, aged 33

saywhatwhatnow · 14/08/2020 08:49

DC1 6 years ending in successful IVF at 29
DC2 6 months of no contraception after my periods returned. Apparently I'm not as infertile as I thought.

Ended up with 2 under 2 by 31.

Alderaan · 14/08/2020 08:59

I was nineteen when I got pregnant with DD. I was actually on the pill but not paying too close attention to it because I virtually never had sex with my partner (maybe three times a year?).

I was thirty-four when I finally got pregnant with DS, after trying for sixteen months.

FebruaryJuly · 14/08/2020 09:05

First (age 19 at conception) took 2 months after one chemical pregnancy in the first month.

Currently 24 years old and trying for our second - we are going into our 8th month on trying and have had one chemical in our first month of trying. Xx

jellybe · 14/08/2020 09:16

DC1 fell pregnant just before turned 24 had been trying since got married so almost 3 years

DC2 fell pregnant at 28 had been trying since DC1 turned 1 so about three years had baby just after turning 29.

DC3 feel pregnant at 30. Total surprise, wasn't trying, periods hadn't returned after stopping breast feeding DC2.

I have PCOS so long times of trying were expected.

cliffdiver · 14/08/2020 09:23

DD1 25 1st cycle (but I didn't actually know about cycles etc then Blush)

DD2 27 1st cycle

History of endometriosis and fibroids.

Chanel05 · 14/08/2020 09:53

I got pregnant at 29 (two days before I turned 30!) and it took me 8 months.

cantsaynotocake · 14/08/2020 10:14

DD1 first cycle at 20
DD2 4 cycles at 23
Been trying 3 years for a third and I'm 28

TheAquaticDuchess · 14/08/2020 10:57
