Got pg with DD #1 6 weeks after stopping BC, so no cycles. My periods did not return regularly PP, but I had 3 PP AFs, one in May, one in July and one in September. BFN on Thanksgiving, BFP 12/15.
First month trying both times (I charted for 2-3 months before each one)
"Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you've got about a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies. God damn it, you've got to be kind."
- Kurt Vonnegut
This time I charted (first didnt) and I'm pretty sure we would have got it first time if our timing was right and my temps hadnt screwed with me the first two cycles
We conceived Sarah our first month TTC. This was our 8th cycle trying for baby #2. We used Preseed this month, and it apparently did the trick. That said, I also suspect I have fibroids (I was supposed to see my midwife about it on Wednesday) and I wonder if that's part of the reason it took so long this time.

I got PG the 2nd time the month afterI had my 1st PP real period. I had a light period 3 months PP but it wasn't anything huge. But #2 I also had stopped breastfeeding the month before.
It took us 5 months with my DD and then this time we got pg after 3 months but m/c, waited a month and we are very blessed to have gotten pg the first month we started trying again.

we conceived 1.5 months after going off bc with our son. This time, we were not trying but I had gone off bc a couple months prior because I thought it would help me lose weight. We had unprotected sex only 2. one time was right after my period and the other time I was tipsy but still thought we were in the clear. Guess not!
We were not trying but we weren't preventing with either... we had so many friends that have had difficulty getting pregnant that we thought it took more time and effort... guess we are just overly fertile.
