Trying to Get Pregnant

got it on the 1st try

Good morning moms,
My DH and I are TTC, it's our 1st month trying. I was wondering how many of you got pregnant on the 1st try?

  • This is a "TRYING to get pregnant" Board, maybe post to the "1st trimester" board? We're all obviously still trying to get pregnant, some never even seen a positive pregnancy test lol.
    While I agree with you, there are many women here who are trying for a sibling.

    Probably not many of us, seeing how we're all trying to get pregnant. Chances are slim but not impossible.

    While I got pregnant with my DD while on bc, my loss I tried for a few months and am on month 2 this time, MANY women on this page have been trying for a very long time and your question doesn't sit well here. Like PP'S said try 1st trimester board for questions that might hurt or upset others on here. Ie.. pregnancy symptoms, I'm pregnant, or questions about getting KU quickly. Also just not sure why you thought this was the place to ask.

  • Getting pregnant quickly is more about being lucky than good. Even if you do everything perfectly, there's still only at most a 20% chance of success each cycle.

  • yes i too am trying to get pregnant just wanted too see how many woman got it on the 1st try and yes i do know the stats so everyone can settle down. will post it on the board for ladies who are pregnant already. 
  • you have a 20% chance each cycle.

    OP: While it may seem like a harmless question to you, there are many women who struggle and stress about getting pregnant for quite awhile, and may not want to see how many people had it happen in just one cycle.

    I know you are excited, but maybe ask this on 1st trimester, like others have mentioned.

    Be prepared to have 12 periods before you get a positive... that's what my OB told me.

    Nope. Cycle 6 here. Thanks for the reminder. 

    Out of curiosity, did you read anything on here before you posted? I think I quick peek at the WTO (Waiting to Ovulate) and TWW (Two week wait) threads would have been enlightening.

    I did, but I had to eat only olives for a whole week, then DH and I had to dance in a backward circle around a garden gnome 7 times. After that he sprinkled some glitter on my lady bits and BAM! KU on our first try! Maybe try that?

  • Snark aside, here is an honest answer...

    With the first two pregnancies, yes I did get pregnant on the first try. First was a miscarriage, second made it full-term w/ help of progesterone.

    Several years later and post-35, it's been 3 months and still no positive test. To be honest, I wasn't expecting this and now wish that we had started earlier.

    Best answer is: it all depends. Good luck.

  • I get why you asked. Just curious how distributed the 20% statistic is. That's a great question. Are most people loaded towards the middle of the bell curve or the end of the bell curve (so to speak). I have no idea, asking people is hard too because most woman lie about this for some reason. Almost like asking your weight. it's really just luck. I had 1st not trying, 2nd 1st try. My older sisters are only 12 months apart and I'm 4 years younger, no pattern just like flipping a coin- but actually worse odds.
  • Well.....

    I got pregnant on our first month "trying." I wasn't charting, OPK, anything. BUT, it ended in a miscarriage at almost 6 weeks.
