Hi! My husband and I just started TTC #2 this cycle, and I was curious how long it took everyone to conceive baby #2 (for those ladies going for round two). It took 7 cycles for us for our first (I'm 33), but I've heard it's often easier for #2 because your body is "geared up" for pregnancy. Any opinions on this?
It took us longer to conceive this second one. Ds was three cycles and this one was five. I also experienced a chemical pregnancy trying for this one as well.
It took 6 months for DD1 and for DD2, I got pregnant on the first cycle.
It took 2 cyles off BCP.
This one was on the first cycle off the mini-pill. I haven't had a PP period since I was BF and on the mini-pill.
#1- 1 cycle post BCP
#2- Surprise. DS was 9 months old and EBF. PP Af hadn't returned.
#3- 1 cycle post-Mirena
Lovielovelove:It took 2 cycles after I had my IUD removed.
same for us
first kiddo took on the first try, but I had not been on any chemical bc then
#1- wasn't planned
Just got pregnant with #2 on the first cycle.
#1 took 24 cycles (2 IVF's & 2 FET's + 1 Ectopic)
#2 took 1 cycle PP (#1 was 5 months old)
#3 took 18 cycles (+ 2 failed FET's)
It was cycle 2 with my first, cycle 6 with my second.
