It took me 7 months. I got off birth control the day after my wedding in September. It was kind of a shock it happened so fast because of the whole birth control theory. I kept hearing it can take forever to get pregnant if you had been on it a long time. We also quit "trying" so that helped. I do have a suggestion if you haven't tried it yet go get some ovulation strips they also worked good for me. Good luck to you!!!

me and my bf have been together for over 4 years and we have never used protection, birth control or pulled out and It took us 3.5 years before I finally got pregnant. I was starting to think something was wrong with me even though I have a 5 year old. N I honestly never stressed about herring pregnant, it just wouldn't happen and then SURPRISE. I'm still shocked that I'm pregnant and I'm about 30 weeks lol when the timing is right, the timing us right so don't get discouraged along the way. Enjoy each other romantically!

One month both pregnancies! Took no time at all. But first prrgnancy ended in miscarriage so we tried again and I got pregnant right away. We had sex every other day for the whole month.

My bf and I weren't trying. And 4 months after we got together we were pregnant! We had our son April 23 !! And now I'm 6-8 weeks pregnant again!! (I was on the pill!) And we figured it took 4 months to conceive this one. And we will have lil ones barely 13 months apart!!

With my son it took 5 months of us trying and with this one we weren't even trying but it took about the same amount of time to get pregnant again seeing as how my son was 5 months old when I found out I was pregnant again

About 9 months. After I quit trying and just went with whatever happens happens. Seemed to work immediately after I quit thinking so much into it. Good luck!!
