How long did it take you?

I'm sure this has been asked before but I don't wanna go back and find one. And we pry have different ladies now! I also can't make a poll. So comments work!

How long were you trying before you got pregnant?

I'm going on to our 7th month as soon as AF arrives....

DH and I started trying in May 2007 and it was June of 2008 before I ever got pregnant.  Then it took another six months from that miscarriage to get pregnant in January of 2009 then another 15 months to get pregnant in July of 2010.  It's been 2 months between that pregnancy and this one.  

Give it time...I know how hard it is.  It's going on 4 years in May for us and we don't have a baby yet..we're hoping this one makes it.

i've been ttc for 3 years 3 months and no child, had adhesions removed from my tubes and been told only a 5% chance of conceiving on my own, my best chance is IVF which i've got another 2 years to wait for.

It will happen when you least expect it, i know it's hard but the more you think about trying the more emotional it gets every month you see a BFN.  Enjoy trying and try not to turn it into a chore, it will happen :)

With DS I wasn't trying, wasn't preventing and we got pregnant the first month. This time around I got off the pill after 2 1/2 months and it took six months for AF to get back to "normal", we tried the first three months, stopped for three, and then six months later I got pregnant.

You should look at my journal about "warrior sperm". I almost swear by this now. With DS I was gone for four weeks, and with this baby DH had just come home after I think it was almost three weeks, and I got my BFP that cycle...

There's the link. In the journal it says I was starting AF, and I was, but that was while DH was gone, it was the fact that he was gone, and I got a BFP during the cycle when he returned...

Took us a bot over 18 months or so to get a sucessful pregnancy. I'm 12 (almost 13) weeks along now. The on again.off again birth control method did NOT work for us. For us it took provera, clomid, misscarriage, hsg test, vitamins, and then TONS of prayer for it to work for us. Seriously, you don't know how many people prayed for this!

Hope it works out for you hun! Keep trying and start looking upwards for answers. :)
