How Long Did It Take You to Concieve?

It took me 4 months, I wasn't tryin' nor
was I preventing pregnancy.
Ok, I also have a question that my sister
would like to ask yall.
My sister is trying to concieve and she
has had sex 11 times with her husband in a
3 month frame. I told her thats not
enough and plus she might not be having
sex on her fertile days but I also
reassured her that pregnancy doesn't
happen everytime you have sex on your
fertile days, it takes time and she is
getting impatient. She is 19 and healthy
and she thinks just becuz she ain't
pregnant yet that she is infertile.
Please leave her some comforting words and
let her kno the facts!
Thanks!

Well I had unprotected sex for 3 years
until I got pregnant (only 1 partner tho)
unless you have been actively trying to
concive for about a year then most docs
won't consider a fertility problem (unless
you have known problems already like
pcos)
if she has a nearly "normal" cycle the
best thing would be to have sex every
other day from cycle day 10 onwards.
Every day can result in a lower sperm
count

Admittedly I wasn't actively trying to
conceive - just not preventing, but it was
still 3 years all the same.

Really tquartz? I just had a miscarriage
last week and i've been charting and I
swear I ovulated today I thought that
would have been too soon after the
miscarriage but sounds like it happened to
you, thanks for posting, it gives me
hope.
Fyi, first time around got pregnant second
month of trying, then miscarried, now
trying again

Apparently you are more fertile after
birth or miscarriage - don't know
personally, never tried but I have heard a
lot of people say it.

6 Months

It took my husband and I about six months.
I guess it took so long for my body to
adjust to getting off b/c pills.
Good luck!

I'm in kia's boat it took me a little over
3 years to concieve. I wasn't trying nor
stopping. But after my 19 months old
twins I am preggers already again, so
maybe you are more fertile after a birth??

I actually had a very similar experience,
not to scare no one. But I was tring to
get pregnant for the longest time and I
thought I wa infertile, but it turned out
to be the oposite. He was! Maybe you
should both get checked out.
