It was 2 years total, 1 year of infertility treatments and IVF to conceive #1.

#2 was the first ovulation post-weaning.

We were told we had a 4% chance - EVER - without medical intervention and maybe a 15 - 20% chance with IVF again.  They told us to be prepared for #1 to be an only.

 

Fast forward to 2 more unmedicated pregnancies after #2 - both ending in miscarriage - and I truly believe #2 is an amazing miracle. 

I wish you a shorter journey the second time around.

It took us two years and two IUI's to get our first.  With this one I went of bc, weren't really trying during that time (5 months) but this last month we just timed it right.

Took us 1 year with DS.  Got BFP this time after 1 period and still BF when DS was 10 months.

It took us about three months for pg #1 that ended in m/c.  Then a year to conceive our daughter who we lost at birth in June.  I'm pg again now.  First cycle trying.  Hopefully this is our happy, healthy, sticky pg

 

Good luck to you!

It took us a year to get pg with DD#1, and only 3 months to get pg with #2.

It took us 2 years and Clomid to get pg with DS1.  We got pg with DS2 our second month not trying, but not preventing and 2 weeks after I weaned DS1.  Good luck!

It took us 14 months and injectables/IUI to get pregnant with DS1. We knew we wanted two close together so I went right back to the doctor for #2. For DS2 it took 2 cycles of injectables/IUI to get pregnant. So it was much faster the second time, but I still needed medical help and we knew what worked last time so we just went right back to that. Good luck!

Over a year the first time, including 2 m/c.  "Oops" the second time.

This is almost exactly my story, except DD took longer than year, and there was a miscarriage along the way before DD.

About a year and 1/2 with #1, then 11 months pp for #2 ( which was 3 months after 1st AF and 1 month after stopping bfing)

KimW

Over 2 years of trying with the first, including 4 IUIs.  With #2, we wern't even really trying (not being too careful though!).  Best. Suprise. Ever!

IVF for #1 after 3 failed IUI's. This pregnancy was a surprise miracle as soon as I weaned nighttime feedings and had my first ovulation.

8 months the first time, 1 this time

marinechick

1 year and 8 months the first time, 3 months the second (first ovulation).

elliek05

3 years ttc number one including 8 months of treatment, and huge surprise this time.

Yes!  One year w/ DS then DD was an "oops".

I think sometimes that's how so many of us got into this situation. Took us 2 years with #1 and I was pg with #2 when my first was 6 months! Good luck!
