How long to get pregnant? What was your age for each pregnancy?

Anonymous
OP here...I am tracking and using OPK but that is all right now....will just keep at it!

31 - first try (early loss)
32- first try (25 weeks now; used opk with smiley face)

I know this is weird, but among my friends, it's seemed to be either right away or it's taken over a year, with help etc. But I am SURE that is coincidence as I too have heard a PP's stat about the 20% chance for a healthy couple each month. Despite our early luck with immediate conception I'm debating, assume all goes ok, trying again fairly soon after this one's born for a second because it all seems so random timing-wise. Good luck!!

18 y/o : on pill no trying
28 y/0 : missed one pill (miscarried) We decided to try after this loss.
30y/o: Beta was negative in December and we conceived in April.
31 y/o: started getting period in July while breastfeeding, conceived in November..still breastfeeding exclusively (does eat solids).

Charting and using OPKs each cycle:
31 - 5 cycles - early miscarriage
32 - 4 more cycles - 5 months along

Like another poster, both times I got pregnant, my ovulation day did not correspond with the charts/OPKs.

30 - ended in a missed miscarriage. Got pregnant by accident.

31 - a few months after my m/c we started trying and got pregnant on first try.

I think getting pregnant seems to be easy for me, but keeping the pregnancy is another issue.

#1 - 32 - 4 months. Got pregnant the second month using OPKs.

#2 - 35 - 10 months. Had to turn to IVF due to endometriosis. The doctor at Shady Grove also gave me the 20% stat. Britney Spears
makes it look so easy when really it's not.

28 - third cycle was the charm

(OPKs were needed for me as I realized after the first cycle when I didn't use them, that I ovulate late in my cycle.)

Good luck!

31 - after 8 months

It was actually the first month we used the ClearBlue Easy monitor. I really recommend it. I was off on my O date (even though I thought I was reading the signs well) because I have long cycles. We had been trying at the wrong times!
