Hi all! Haven't been on these boards in years. But it happened... Hubby and I have babies on the brain again.
It took 6 cycles to conceive our son (taking the 5th month off to regroup because I was stressed it wasn't happening). Then bam, it happened the 6th month.
How long did it take you fine ladies for your 1st and second positives?
Re: How many cycles for 2nd baby?
Spontaneous pregnancy #1
DD1 July 31, 2011
Trying for #2 since Oct 11
Spontaneous pregnancy #2= Ectopic #2= lost left tube
Spontaneous pregnancy #3= DD2 January 29, 2016
Spontaneous pregnancy #4= Ectopic #3
Spontaneous pregnancy #5= Baby #3 is a BOY!!!
1st - it took 4 days
2nd- we haven't used any BC in 14 months and still haven't had luck. Timing has been okay, but job stress and DH working out of town quite a bit has changed the circumstance a bit.

With DD2 I had a m/c and we waited a month. I got pregnant the first cycle after we waited but it was a c/p. We tried again the following month and I got pregnant with DD2.

1st: 4 cycles (3 months)
2nd: very first cycle!
I was surprised it happened so fast the 2nd time.
son#1 born 6/2010
son#2 born 4/2012
son#3 born 7/2014
DS- tried 5 cycles, had a chemical preg, got preg on 7th cycle
DD-2 cycles (we were shocked that it didn't take as long)
I think with DD I knew what I was doing more than with DS. I also stopped taking BC about 5 months before trying for #2 and we just avoided sex during my fertile window until we were ready to actually TTC. Does that make sense? I do know a lot of people though that took longer to conceive the second baby. There's really no way to predict it. GL
edited for grammar
DS- Cycle 1
TTC #2- We're currently on the 12th cycle.
1st positive was 1 month
2nd positive (ended in m/c) was month 7
3rd positive was month 10 with 1 month off because we moved cross-country.
