It took 12 cycles, and testing at the RE when I got pregnant. DD is 10 months, and I think we are NTNP, and will start trying around her first bday!

It took us over a year (and a prior loss) to conceive my daughter. Imagine our surprise when we conceived our son on the first try!

I got my period back at 3 months PP after my son and got pregnant the next cycle. (We were NTNP.)
I actively tried at 16 months PP after my daughter and got pregnant that first month as well.

I put 5-6 months because it has been technically only 4 months in total cycles (& counting) including a MC / d &c + the waiting period afterwards to try. Conceived LO in about 6 months. We are waiting to try in a few months but can't believe it'll be coming up to a year since the bfp last year by then

H took 4 cycles of active TTC. LO2 is an oopsie baby, but a very happy surprise
persimmon / 1270 posts
I put happy surprise. We weren't trying, but I got sloppy/mixed up my days counting, and sometimes it only takes once! LO1 was almost 10 months... We had intended to wait a while longer.
LO1 took two months. After a surprise oops baby miscarriage at 8 weeks. We were about to start trying.

I also put 6 cycles. I got pregnant on the second cycle, but miscarried at 8 weeks. Then we waited a cycle and tried again. On my second cycle trying, I got pregnant with this baby.

We dtd once for pregnancy #2, but sadly ended up miscarrying. We got the surprise of our lives when we ended up pregnant again before my cycle returned post-miscarriage! Good luck

@dc yoga bee: It took us 2.5 years and RE IUI and then a miracle we got PG on our "break" cruise!
We were NTNP from about 6 months until 11 and I started to track my cycles and pay a little more attention to O, DD is 15 months and now I am 12 weeks PG

#1 took five years, eight failed IUIs, and two cycles of IVF. #2 was a happy surprise.

#1 took 8 months including an early miscarriage.
#2 got pregnant on second try and stayed pregnant.
#3 got pregnant accidentally with DS2 was 9 months and we were trying to avoid. We miscarried and then were not trying but not avoiding but I got pregnant every month we didn't try to avoid, and kept having chemical pregnancies. We got and stayed pregnant I guess it was 5 months after our first loss, after DS2 was totally weaned.

We tried a year for our son, but only three cycles for our dd and three cycles this time (although really only one realistic cycle since my luteal phase was so short I was pretty certain I couldn't get pregnant). Now that we've figured out our issue, it's much faster!

Each of my sons took 18 months to conceive. Ds1 we were "lucky" and successful after our first Ivf.
Ds2 took 3 FETS and a fresh retrieval to conceive, plus two losses along the way.
Very grateful for both!

LO1 took 13 months of actively TTC (charting, opks, etc.). I had a miscarriage after month 3.
LO2 happened on the very first try and I was completely shocked.
nectarine / 2466 posts
#1 it took 2 cycles of charting ( but like a year or so of NTNP)
#2 was my second cycle ( which was my second cycle PP)
#3 we are on cycle 6
GOLD / wonderful pea / 17697 posts

2 cycles NTNP - which is impressive, because we we only DTD twice in those two months.

@dc yoga bee: eek! I'm in the same boat! We've been NTNP since the birth of DD. Still nada Although I'm still EBF. I'm hoping to wean right around a year, and start Clomid then if needed!

I got pregnant my first cycle ttc #2 but it was a chemical pregnancy. We haven't tried since-- took 2 months off and will try again next month

D was 7 cycles of tracking BBT, using OPKs, and timing sex. With A, we had just decided to pull the goalie and wait and see what happens.

#1 - 6 months total, but only 3 months actively trying (had a m/c before being pregnant with LO)
If this pregnancy sticks, #2 will have taken 8 months but again only 3 cycles actively trying (had a m/c, a chemical, and we were technically taking a break from trying when I got pregnant again).
wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts
I'm liking the results! We're gonna TTC #2 this summer and I really hope we get it on the first try due to timing!

I got pregnant with #1 after I went off BCP (surprise). For #2 we were TTA for awhile but I was just charting so we were less careful after she was 18mo old. We had one month with BD O-5 and then one month with BD O-3 and no pregnancy for either. Then we got pregnant with this one from BD O-5 (and then we were going to NTNP after that month except I got pregnant). Plus we had some months in between with no chance (no BD around O).
