DD was turning one in February so we decided we would start trying in January. We got pregnant that month.
DD was EBF too, but I had AF for at least 3 months regularly. So I marked the day I started and pretty much had sex every other day, sometimes everyday (sorry TMI) and lo and behold... #2 is on his/her way.
It took several months with ds#1 and with baby#2 I got my first pp period in January, 14 days later we went to Mexico and I came back pregnant. Not very long at all!!!

DS is 10 months old now. We weren't trying but we weren't preventing either. I am still BF'ing DS but AF returned for 3 cycles before I got pregnant this time.
As far as I know it happened during the second cycle after having DD... we were trying but I wasn't keeping religious track of things... I'm pretty sure I'm right though.
EDIT: I got PG while EBF... still are with some solids from time to time.
we were going to start trying when DD was 1 but decided to let things happen as they happen and we got pg when she was 10 months old. So, really i got pg the first time we didn't prevent it this time.
I BF DD for 9 months, got AF back at 10 months PP, had 2 periods and then BFP. We were planning to start actively TTC in May but figured if it happened earlier, great! We only had sex once in my fertile time and that's all it takes! It was a little bit of a surprise that it happened so quickly because it took 5 months of actively TTC (charting, OPKs, Preseed...) to get PG w/ DD.
CP 3/07 BFP 5/07 - Kylie born 2/08. BPF 2/09 - Alexandra born 10/09. TTC since 8/13 - diagnosed difficulty conceiving due to LP defect. Took vitamin B and Vitex Berry to help lengthen. BFP 2/14 - Missed M/C found at 8.5 weeks. D&C at 9w2d. Partial Molar Pregnancy. BFP 11/14
With DS it took 3 years and fertility specialts.....bebe #2....took 7 months of not trying but not preventing......I guess sometimes you do seem more fertile after you've had one LOL!
We were off BC for 3 months planning on "trying" in March (we were using condoms). Well, we had an ooops moment on Valentines (thought I ovulated a week earlier) and sure enough we got Pregnant in Febuary. So I would say it happened fast!!
It took me a year to ovulate again after ds was born but I got pg first cycle that I o'd.
Same as this poster. ?I Bf'd DS until a little over 12 months, and tested with OPK's but wasn't ovulating. As soon as I stopped BF'ing we tried the next cycle and got pg. m/c that one, then a few weeks later, here I am again. Very happy to be here too!
Re: how fast did you get pg with 2nd baby?
a year and a half.
ETA: DS is 3 and 1/2. We started trying just before his second birthday. He'll be 4 when this baby is born (hopefully!)
are you thinking of trying again?
If we go for a #2... I will stop BF around 3-5 months and go from there. Once I have a cycle, I will be back at the RE for IUI#1 again.

We had to wait 5 momths for me to ovulate but after that it only took 2 months.

so far 4 months with #3- hopefully I am here soon and not just lurking?
First cycle not trying but not preventing.

First cycle trying...EBF but got AF when DS started solids at 6 months.
DS took 2 cycles
1 month of "giving it a whirl".
I had AF back at 8 weeks despite BF'ing (I actually still am attempting to despite a crappy supply).
2nd cycle.
It took us I think 5 or 6 months and it ended in m/c. Then it took us another 7 months to get pregnant again.
