How long did it take for you to conceive when trying?

My husband and I are married for only 4 months but we've already begun discussing starting a family by mid 2009....I am just curious how long it took for some of you to get pregnant when trying...Im afraid I'll start trying and it will take us a very long time.

thanks

It could take a very long time - but it could happen right away too. I think that's what you have to be prepared for. If it happened right away, would you be ready? In our case, we started trying in January of this year and actually got pregnant on the first try. Unfortunately, it ended in miscarriage in March and we've now been trying for the 7 months since - unsuccessfully.Chat Icon There's just no telling when it will happen, it's not really something you can plan for.

2 years.

We ended up finding out about a year later that we were dealing with multiple fertility issues. I'm also older as is my DH so age also played a factor in it.

With DD, it was our first cycle. This time around we are in our 3rd cycle.

I would cross post to the pregnancy board. Most of us are still trying and a large portion of this board is trying for their first DC. On the pregnancy board-they are all pregnant and can give you more responses.

there is no way to know how soon it will happen for you unfortunately.

Most doctors' will tell you that after a year of trying - your chances are only 50/50.

For us - it took 7 cycles.

We are going to be starting our 7th cycle this month, but after some blood tests there may be some issues so I am now going to an RE for this cycle.

I got pg the first month after going off BCP and then M/C'd. I got pg again a month after that, but m/c'd again. After that it took 9 months to get pg with DD.

Re: How long did it take for you to conceive when trying?

With DS it was the first try, 1 month after we were married and 1 month off the pill....who knew that could happen!

Now with TTC #2 I got BFP on 2/3rd try (the first 2 mos we just did it whenever, the 3rd month I planned around ovulation) then I had a mc in wk 5 so we are waiting for the ok to try again, hopefully after dr visit this monday.

ITA with futuremommy.

You need to be prepared for it to either take a really long time or for it to happen right away.

Unfortunately, it's just one of those things that you can't really predict.

We are both young, healthy and had no reason to believe we'd have any difficulty getting pregnant - but here we are in month #14 moving onto fertility treatments. You really just never know.

Also, ITA with xposting this to the PG board since many of us are still trying for #1.

Re: How long did it take for you to conceive when trying?

I thought it would take us at least 6 months to get pregnant. (It took my mom over 2 years to conceive me.)

We ended up getting pregnant on our first month of TTC. If we knew we would have gotten pregnant so quickly, we would have waited longer. It's a time gamble. You can't tell.

I went off BCP in Jan. We really started "trying" in May (meaning using OPks, paying attention to cycles, went on clomid). I got pregnant in August

ITA also with having to be ready whether is happens right away or takes time...I am just so shocked at how many woman really do miscarry! I mean you hear that it happens but it really happens so often. I guess its best, especially if the baby or the mom are not 100% healthy. Still....WOW! And Im so sorry for all of you on here who this has happened to. I cannot imagine how hard it must be...Thank you for being brave enough to share it with me!
