well its taken us nearly 2 years to concieve i am 6 wks into pregnancy...due to having the depo provera contraception injection after the birth of my last baby who will be 6 yrs shortly so it took along time this time although we didnt think we would ever concieve,as we have alot of stress lately plus i lost my grandfather also 2 wks ago so i say he left me a surprise r.i.p gramps xxxxxxxxxxxx

ds- 1st unprotected sex after coming off pill
dd1- 6mths after ds was born
dd2- 13 mths after dd1 was born

Basically everytime we have unprotected sex. Don't want any more so not having sex atm just to be on the safe side

piratecat · 21/11/2008 16:56

dd (only child) 3 yrs, concieved naturally.

mumhadenough · 21/11/2008 16:58

ds - talked about it on the Wednesday, conceived on 1st attempt on the Friday.
mc1 - drunken unprotected fumble
mc2 - drunked unprotected fumble after missed 1 pill!

I know we were very very lucky. We were totally in shock with ds as expected it to take months!

Chocolatedays · 21/11/2008 17:41

3.5 dreadful years of longing to be a mum. Would have completely lost it had it not been for the gals on the conception thread.

After 2nd IVF had a lovely dd this July - at last I'm not saying to my dh "all I want for Christmas is a baby" (far to depressing for everyone!)

Good luck to everyone trying

Choc xx

Marne · 21/11/2008 17:43

dd1-2 months
dd2-3 months

Milliways · 21/11/2008 17:43

PinkTulips · 21/11/2008 17:53

dd = 2 years
ds = preg without period after dd
dc3 = 2nd month after ditching contraception

georgimama · 21/11/2008 20:01

Oh Chocolate, I'm so happy for you. It wasn't anywhere near that long for me (I don't know how you coped) but it was long enough and I remember the veil of tears all too well. I think the very worst bit might have been when the fertility clinic gave me a leaflet on a support network for childless couples called "More to Life". I'm sure they're a lovely bunch of people but I sobbed all the way home.

taipo · 21/11/2008 20:04

dd - 6 months
ds - 1 year

Reesie · 21/11/2008 20:17

MC - 1 month
DD - 2 months
this pregnancy 1 month

My dh now thinks that he is the obviously superfertile one and could impregnate basically anyone
