How long did it take for you to conceive your second child?

[Jonesy88]

Just that really!
DS is 1 and I’m starting to get broody!

I started getting broody 18 years after my first lol. Was very fortunate to fall pregnant first cycle. Good luck!

Fucking ages

One go. We literally DTD once the first cycle we started trying, but I was tracking BBT and doing ovulation tests, and we aimed for day before/day of ovulation. Would have DTD more but just didn’t manage. I was pretty surprised it was that easy tbh, even though it hadn’t taken us long to conceive before either.

First month of trying when my ds was 1. It took over a year to conceive ds so it was a surprise it was so easy second time.

Second month trying when my eldest was 2. They are 3 years and 2 months apart x

14 years after the first 🙈😂 but luckily was only my second cycle! Good luck!

On the 4th cycle

Second month, DD was 4 months old

First time! However, the first one took 3 years!

12 months. With DD1 it took 2 cycles but DD2 took a year. We’d made the decision to speak to a GP about having some issues seemingly not being able to conceive again and then a week later I got a BFP.

Seven months, miscarried at 12 weeks then another four months to conceive DC2 - a year ish in total. DS1 was conceived first try.

One oops

Two goes then it took years to conceive number three.

2 months

DD1 was first cycle. Currently pregnant with DD2 and it took 18 months. I have a theory that I am in less good shape now and am tired all the time.(due to have a toddler) so maybe less fertile. Or possibly, it’s all just luck.

First cycle

I was breast feeding ds and we didn't use any contraceptives. I got pregnant when ds was 15 months.

Conceived dc2 when dc1 was 17months, however I did have 2 miscarriages before that. Conceived dc3 when dc2 was 15months old on the first try

We started TTC when DD1 was 3. Conceived on cycle 3. It was cycle 1 with DD1 so very lucky both times.

Two cycles and I was throwing my guts up with a sickness bug during what I thought was ovulation. My OH sperm was a super survivor!

Thanks all, fingers crossed for as few cycles as possible!

First month of trying both times. Not particularly young either. Very very lucky.

5 minutes. I was 39 and still BF my 18 month old at the time.

2nd time at 42, 10 months. After 9 months we were sure we won’t be able to conceive as the first time it took only 2 months (at 38). But we thought will keep trying until a year.
And the next month, surprise!

5th cycle but early miscarriage/CP. Then the 6th cycle got pregnant again but another early miscarriage/CP. Then 7th cycle pregnant again and currently 8+5 weeks
