Anyone trying for 2nd Baby.....How long?

Hi. I am new to this, so please excuse my lack of abbreviations...I don't get them all yet!!!

Just wondering how many of you are trying for your 2nd baby? I came off the pill (Microgynon) at the end of Jan as my OH & I have decided to try for another baby and just wondered if anyone out there is in the same situation? Is is taking longer to get pregnant this time then last?

I had my withdrawal bleed at end of Jan then got AF after 24 days, we have been trying over the last week, so fingers crossed for this month!

Lots of luck to everyone!

P.S. I think this site is brilliant!

    Hi Honey
    We're ttc our 2nd too!
    i came off the pill at the end of october and had my w.d bleed as normal and was lucky enough not to get a af but get my bfp in december unfortuantly i did mc and we are now back on the ttc wagon as such and into month 5 overall but 3 since the mc!

    I can't really compare to last time as Ellie was a surprise so i'm finding this ttc malarky hard and its difficult to not obsess!

    Good luck & lots of babydust!

    hello,

    We are trying for our second child as well.
    Have only been ttc for a couple of months now.
    I know that is not very long, just feels like a long time to me as I fell pregnant straight away with our first.

    I actually fell for our son whilst on microgynon and the one I lost before him. I was a regular pill and morning toothbrushing person as well so it wasn't through missing one.
    Good luck and hope you get a BFP soon.x

    Hi,

    No experience of ttc number 2 as just had number 1 but hopefully will be ttc around Sept for a little brother or sister for him! But just wanted to say I was on microgynon and my GP said I should have no problems with coming off it. I waited until I had two normal periods (came off it in the Jan and 28 day cycle returned straight away) and got my positive result first month of trying. Just wanted to give you a positive experience!

    Good luck! x

    Hi

    I'm TTC No 2, have been trying for 2 months and AF is due at the weekend, hopefully she wont turn up. It took us 3 months with my little boy so i'm hoping it wont take too long this time round.

    My little boy is nearly 8 months so i went back on the pill (cerazette)when he was 2 months then stopped taking it at the end of Dec (when he was 5 and half months). I had withdrawal bleed early Jan, then first AF arrived mid Feb.

    Good luck x
