How long did it take you to conceive and what was your age

[Anonymous]

I was 29 and my boyfriend was 27 and we weren't trying. Ooops. I was on the Pill but I had just switched for the regular Ortho Tri Cyclen to the low dose version. Apparently, it was too low dose for my system. I freaked out that I had damaged the fetus since I kept taking the Pill for a few weeks until I found out I was pregnant. I also racked my brain to remember if I had had anything to drink during that time. I am sure if I TRY to conceive #2, I probably won't be able to.

1st, I was 32 yo and DH was 38 and it took 6 mos
2nd I was 35 and DH was 41 and it took us 5 mos

the ovulation tests from CVS (urine sticks) worked well for us.

28 it took 1 month

I got knocked up in high school. Just like Sarah Palin's daughter.

Wow! Who knew there were so many old mothers in the Beltway. No wonder there are so many bitches on this forum.

First:
Me, 37, DH 40- 1st try
Second:
Me, 38, DH 41- 1st try on first post-partum cycle

I was using OPKs so we knew when I was ovulating.

I was 32 and DH was 32. I have PCOS and it was our 2 cycle trying. ( I was also charting and using the CBEFM)

I was 31, DH was 32 and it was right away - it took us one time with no preventive measure.

We actually weren't trying but my periods were VERY irregular since going off the pill a few months earlier (the night we got pregnant we thought it was "safe" time as we had decided to start trying after the holidays were over).

This was a total fluke and as we gear up for #2, cynical me fully expects for it not to happen or for it to take forever!
