Just curious! If you have two+ LOs (or are even pregnant for #2+), how long did it take you each time? Was it similar timing for each? Quicker for 2+? Longer?
Took me 6 cycles for #1 and we're on cycle 3 at the moment trying for #2!

9 months for #1
5 months for #2 (but 4 of those 5 months were 'NTNP', so the timing was never right)

It took nearly three years for Chloe. Most of that time was spent TTC without assistance + one year before we could be referred to an RE + testing at the RE.
I got pregnant on the second clomid cycle.
This time, about 7 months. I got pregnant on my third clomid cycle.

I always wonder about this. We got pregnant quickly with the boys, but I know it could take a lot longer the next time.

1st month we actively tried both times. I hope I'm as fortunate if we have a 3rd.

#1 August 2011 off depo, advised to have 1-2 regular cycles before TTC. November 2011 was 2nd regular cycle, so Dec we "tried". BFP Jan 1st, 2012, mc Jan 8th, bfp Feb 5th and successful pregnancy resulting in baby Oct 2012.
#2 Surgery for migrated IUD July 25, 2013. August 19th I had my first preg symptom and official bfp Labour Day weekend.
Writing that down makes everything seem like it went really easy, but the mc, then the scariest 1st tri with #1 and a migrated Mirena pushing back ttc for #2 it was the furthest thing from easy at times.

DS1 was a pleasant surprise, and I was pregnant with him 2.5 months after our wedding. #2 was also a surprise at 14 months pp but resulted in miscarriage. DS2 was conceived on our first try after deciding to try again. So I've concluded that I get pregnant very easily, and DH needs a vasectomy asap...

It took 8 months to get a sticky BFP for #1 but I'd gotten pregnant two other times during that time frame (both MCs) soooo I got pregnant pretty easily each time.
#2 was a surprise- I got pregnant the month that AF returned PP (when DS was 4 months old).

The first time took 2 miscarriages and 2 years, but we weren't actively trying the entire time.
The second time the first month.

1st: 6-8 months but was not surprised because I had been on BC non-stop for 5 years straight before that.
2nd: about 4m after having LO. I stopped BFibg and got pregnant that month. Mc that ended at 9w gestation.
3rd: still trying on month 10

It was the 2nd official month both times but the first month of each wasn't good timing.

DD was a happy surprise.
DS was a happy surprise. We weren't trying, but I got pregnant 4-5 months after I got my period back pp.

Crazy fast with #1...we started NTNP and two weeks later I had a BFP!
#2 took 5 months of actively trying with charting, OPKs, etc.

So you ladies are saying it's all over the place and there are no guarantees on how long it will take for #2!
