With my son it was a total accident and we had only been together for 1 month so it only took that 1 month to get pregnant. Now that my husband and I are actually trying its been 5 months and we're still trying...=(

my husband and i tried for 2 years and nothing happened..., once we stopped trying to conceive and just had fun in the sack and the shower, i got pregnant.., i guess it was all this worrying and wondering when is the next time i'll be ovulating got us stressed out.
that was 20 years ago. We have a beautiful 20 year old daughter who is an artist.

I fell pregnant the very first time I had sex.
Needless to say, we weren't exactly trying to create another human life. Lesson learned.

Personally, we never actually started trying, but here I am with two wonderful boys. If I miss on the birth control just once, that's me pregnant!

The first time, we weren't even trying. The second time around, it took a bit over a year of trying.

A few months, but my wife had quite a few miscarriages and then didn't become pregnant at all for several years. More or less as soon as we came to the conclusion that we weren't going to have children she became pregnant and now we have two sons.

I have actually been trying for about 2 months now but every time i just end up getting my period so no and now i am sad well i am trying not to think of it so much this month but we are still trying

We, (my wife and I), even went to the doctor because it wasn't happening. He told us to relax and not think about it, and it would probably happen pretty quick. He was right.
We didn't go to the doctor until about the 10 month mark. It was about 6 months after that. We were gonna go back to the doctor after our vacation, but my wife woke up puking 2 days before our vacation. I ran to the drugstore and, sure enuff, she was pregnant.

After taking BC pills for 10 years, I was VERY surprised to become pregnant in less than a month.

We have unexplained fertility. It has been two years now. Relaxing, vacations, and the like didn't work. BBT Charting for 1.5 years has been my greatest asset.

Several factors including your age, fertility, health and wellness and even lifestyle factors can influence your ability to get pregnant.
Roughly 25% of couples actively trying to get pregnant will get pregnant within the first month, while more than 75% of couples will get pregnant within nine months of trying to conceive. Typically unless it takes more than a year to conceive, you fall into the normal age. Some doctors recommend that if you are over the age of 35 you seek the advice of a fertility specialist if you are trying to conceive and have not had luck within the first six months of trying. Typically as a woman ages her chances of conceiving decline slightly each year.

My husband and I were together 2 months when I got pregnant with our 1st. The next 4 years we weren't actively trying, but definately not trying to prevent pregnancy. We have now been trying for our 2nd for about 2 years. . .I stopped drinking, lost some weight, take my vitamins, and track my ovulation with opk's. . .but still nothing :( I had a very easy and healthy 1st pregnancy, so I assume there's nothing wrong. Idk. . . Any advise ladies??

by PatriciaHicks on July 23rd, 2008
it depends on your body when you get pregnant not every womens body is completely the same. some women it can take as soon as you have sex or it can take a few more trys.

have you been to the doctors to get checked
by Sandra havent been here since forever on September 19th, 2007
Our 1st took about 16 months, (we thought something was wrong with one of us). Our doctor did some tests and told us to stop thinking about it. To just try to relax, and that it would happen. When we quit trying so hard, it did happen shortly after.
But, after our 1st child, the other 2 were on the 1st try! THAT was weird! Good luck to y'all!
by BrokeDog on September 19th, 2007
Thanks to everyone for your comments! We have been to the Dr. and are currently starting treatment (PCOS). We just got a new house so we're keeping high hopes that it may soon be our time!
