How long did it take you to conceive?
Hi All,
This is my first post here, recently married and currently trying for a baby.
My lovely new husband wants a baby, but is set against an August baby which would be what we would have if I conceived right now. Which I feel is unlikely as it's the first month of trying. (He thinks they have it harder in School, despite us both having friends born from June - August who are did VERY well in school) -
Silly Hubby seems to think we are sure to be super fertile and that if we try for a baby we are going to get pregnant straight away - I am a little more realistic and think it will be a least 3-4 months even if we are lucky.
I've spent today showing him articles to put his mind at rest, but I would be really grateful if you could share with me from when you started trying how many months it was until you where expecting. Even if you did get pregnant straight away!
Thank you in advance! XXXXXXXX

We started TTC July 2008 (yes 08 not 09 lol) and have yet to see a BFP!
Good luck for when you do start TTC x
didn't want to read and run
but perhaps you should post this in pg as well
I am on month 4 now, many people here have been trying for longer though.
if you just came of pill it'll probably take a while to get back to normal so that could slow things down
good luck ttc...and in case it takes a while your OH won't mind any more when your child might be born...you get so desperate after a while that you don't care...
I agree, you can't really choose when they come - My siblings and I were all little surprises! (Surprises my mum loves and adores of course).
Plus I have friends who have struggled to conceive, where as he doesn't so I don't think he understands how each month we get a negative how disappointing it will be.
Wishing you all lots of luck
i am ttc #2 and on month 15
Good Luck xxxxxxxxxxxx
I think the stats say approx 30% of women will conceive on first cycle trying don't they?
Good luck!

My baby is due in July next year. I've read posts about this before but feel that if the child has educational toys and is encouraged to play, is read to and is encouraged to ask questions and has those questions answered appropriately it has as much chance as any other to do well at school. A child naturally has the instinct to learn, I feel its down to the parent to develop this.
Good luck

I had one random long cycle though where we totally missed ovulation, so i guess that makes it 5 cycles of date-accurate ttc
