I have been off birth control and actively trying to get pregnant for 3-4 months now which obviously isn't very long considering I spent 3 years and lots of fertility treatments to conceive DS due to PCOS. So just curious to any of you ladies who had trouble getting pregnant with #1 if it was any easier or harder to get preggo with #2?

    It was for us. It took from August 2006 to April 2008 to get pregnant, and we had a loss after 9 months of trying for our first. With my current pregnancy, it took 3 or four months. We didn't do anything to increase our chances with the first, so I can't speak to that. I also used to follow a blog of a woman who conceived her first easily, but now has secondary infertility, so I imagine it just depends on each persons situation.

    I got pregnant the first time one month after going off the pill. I had a complication free pregnancy and a healthy DD. It took over 3 years to get of with #2 (see sight for history). Everyone's journey is different.

    I did have that experience.  I went through a couple IUIs with fertility drugs for #1.  After that we just didn't bother with birth control because we knew we'd want another eventually.  Well guess what...surprise pregnancy when #1 was 10 months old.

    You just never know.  I've seen it go all ways when it comes to fertility issues.

    It took two years to get pg with Ben. Five failed IUIs and I got pregant on a cancelled IVF cycle. With Cooper it was maybe four or five months and I got pregnant on the cycle we went back to the RE and I had an HSG and was doing the clomid challenge test.

    Jill- thanks makes me feel better I don't think I want to even try IUI's again for #2. Hoping clomid can do it alone.
