How many cycles TTC?

Hi ladies, I'm just curious to know how many cycles it took to get your BFP?
Thanks! :)

Re: How many cycles TTC?

  • It took us 2 cycles.  I temped and used opk's, which helped us make sure we were hitting our fertile window.

  • we've been "trying" since february...BUT i didn't chart or use OPKs, just the 'my days' app on my phone. we weren't really on a time crunch or anything just a "when it happens, it happens" so that's why i just kept track on my phone.

  • I have no idea what any of this means.

     

    Can anyone enlighten me?

     

    I think I'm out of the loop because we weren't actively trying to conceive...

  • 2 Cycles using FF.  Didn't temp.

  • We tried for two months, then decided we're tired, old, and are okay with our two daughters (3 and 5 yo).  The next month, SURPRISE!
  • 5 charted + OPKs. 

  • 1st cycle for both pregnancies.  We feel very blessed!  I used an OPK for both but that's it.

  • 14 with DS (coming off many years of birth control, so not sure how many of the first cycles were ovulatory). 

    with this pregnancy, no period for 12 months while bf'ing, then 3 cycles until pregnant .

  • It took us 4. I started out temping and ovulation tests but my husband felt I was stressing over it too much so this last cycle I didn't do anything, didn't record when my last AF was or anything, lo and behold we hit it and I am so happy! Best of luck!

  • First cycle trying, I had only been monitoring CM, hadn't actually started charting temps yet.
    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • 1 time - 1 cycle, then early miscarriage, next try - just 1 cycle again.  I had been charted for some time but kind of stopped because I found just keeping track of my period and CM was enough.  I'm very regular.  
  • 2.5 years, I don't even want to know how many cycles that was.

  • 20 months, I forget how many cycles (16 I think.. with a few TTA/losses)
