New here... How long did it take to conceive baby number 3?

hi, 

I have two children, and am currently trying to conceive baby number 3.... For some reason I have this feeling that it's going to take me ages to conceive this time round! I was lucky enough to fall pregnant the first month both times before.... I am now on month 2 x

    hi Linz, thank you for the reply image i tried using ovulation kits Last month, but decided not to this month as I never did with my other two! I'm not sure when I ovulate tbh, my cycle was different this month, so I'm either waiting to ovulate or have already! May be bad timing as my husband is away this weekend, and then again for 4 days next week so might not catch it this month! But even still thank you image I hope it doesn't take too long! Congratulations on your baby news, hope all a going well xx

And unbelievably I got my smiley face!!! so husband came back Earlier.... He's here again tomorrow and away again Tuesday... So fingers crossed we may just catch it this month!!

    5 year gap for us...I had coil removed 8th november last year had bfp Christmas eve sadly I had a miscarriage in January however we were so lucky and I fell pregnant pretty much straight away - I didn't even have a period in between and our 3rd baby is due 31st October now nearly 27 weeks. I really wasn't expecting to fall pregnant so quickly! Hope it happens soon for you.

    Congratulations, lovely to hear it didn't take to long to conceive, especially after misscarriage, sorry to hear about that.... That also happend to me before my son, I was only about 4-5 weeks along but fell pregnant straight away afterwards with no period in between! 

    Thank you, hope pregnancy is treating you well xx

    I also miscarried before my eldest daughter in 2007...when we had the miscarriage in January I used this to explain to her and sister that sometimes things happen for a reason (we had told them I was pregnant)...If the baby I had then hadn't gone away then mummy would never had room in her tummy for Lily and she would never been born. It helped me also thinking that way because while it was a sad time I am always greatful for a being given my gorgeous girl and this baby will of course be just as big a blessing.

    thats a nice way of thinking image! My daughter was only 5 months when I fell pregnant with my son so she was none the wiser, we won't be sharing the news with them until after the first scan at least when it happens....

    I'm excited to be trying again anyway, so really hope this is the month!! Xx
