Two Under 2

Conceiving #2

If you had an easy time conceiving your first did the same hold true for your second?  We got pregnant with DD right away and are going to start trying for #2 in September.

Re: Conceiving #2

  • We don't really "try" for our kids. With DD#1 we decided that we would start in February 2005 to think about having kids - we got PG that month. With DD#2, we decided that we should have another - got PG WHILE ON VACATION in Europe with DD#1 in tow.........with DS, well, we had JUST starting talking about the possibility of having a third and BAM! I got PG that month.........

    So yes, easy all 3 times..........

  • With DD, it took us 11 months, 6 months of charting. With this pregnancy, it was our first month of TTC and charting. Good Luck!!

  • It took about 3 cycles (one in which we got pregnant, but had a very early m/c) to conceive DD.  This time, we were going to wait until July to TTC, but in *ahem* the heat of the moment - we decided what the heck in early June - bam!  One act of unprotected sex - we couldn't be happier, just surprised it happened so quickly. 
  • I got pregnant with #1 on the first try.  #2 was a surprise.  We weren't trying...but not really preventing.  Nursing my son did not prevent #2 coming!  

  • I've had 3 pregnancies (one m/c) -- I got pregnant the on the first try for the first two and this one was a vacation surprise! :) Apparently I'm fertile myrtle. GL!
  • pg with DD by cycle 5 (which I suppose is still considered an "easy time".

    pg with DC#2 first cycle

  • Took about 4 months for DD and then just one month for this baby.

  • DS took 3 cycles, this one was an oops. So yes, very easy for both.

  • yes, similar to previous poster, we got pg with our daughter before we officially got around to trying, and the same with our son. i have two more friends with two under 2, and both are the same story.
  • DS #1 = first try.  Baby #2= same.  Good luck to you!
  • I was shocked when I got pregnant the first month trying, both times.

  • It took over a year and two rounds with Clomid to conceive #1.  #2 was an unexpected blessing!

    #1 took us 6 long cycles (9 months) of active trying/charting. ?We had planned to start trying for #2 as soon as AF returned PP. ?AF never returned because I got PG my first ovulatory cycle PP. ?So, I would say #2 was "easier" because there was no trying at all.
