Just curious. Ours was most definitely unplanned. (We were only married for less than 2 months when it happened, I think we conceived a few days after my grandma died). We were using a lax version of the rhythm/withdrawal method.
What about you?

We have IF and so it was VERY planned, but of course twins was a big surprise. We were doing monitoring to prevent multiples but an extra egg hid in there

Well, we started TTC in August, and got pregnant in November, so that was fast. But I had a m/c in January, then got pregnant again right away. So even though I would say starting to TTC in August and a BFP in February is quick, I wouldn't say WHAM! because it wasn't such an easy road.
I got off bc in Novemeber because my doctor told me it would take about 3 months to get pregnant since the medication would still be in my system.... I got knocked up in late December, so he came a bit sooner than expected.
We were so so lucky. We were technically "trying" for two months, but I got pregnant during my first charting cycle.
I remember having this feeling of, "wait, what? this is actually happening exactly as it's supposed to??"
"For a long time there were only your footprints & laughter in our dreams & even from such small things, we knew we could not wait to love you forever."
Very unplanned. We had only been dating for 2 months.
But we werent using condoms and got very lax about pulling out. With my ex I never got pregnant in 3 years (thank god!) doing the exact same thing. I was also told I may have trouble getting pregnant.
I've got PCOS, so when we decided we wanted to start a family, we were thinking months-->years of treatment, possibly adoption, blah blah blah. My fam doc told me to go off the pill and chart, since the specialist had a hell of a waiting list, and it couldn't really hurt anything.
6 weeks after tossing out the pills, and with ZERO treatment at all whatsoever, we got a BFP. The old-fashioned way.
So it was kinda planned, but we weren't expecting it to be so soon!
Very unplanned. Birth control pills (no missed days, but i didnt take them at the same time every day) with the first, and an IUD with the second. We're a little fertile, I guess. But they are both very happy and welcome surprises.

This!

Guess DH has the super sperm.
