- I'm 19 and we were trying for 3 months and it happened. Now we have a baby boy on the way.

Harder second time
- This time trying took one month, with my son it was 18months of calculating ovulation, ovulation test kits. The one month I didn't think about it it happened. I'm currently trying for baby number 3.

Long enough to want to give up!
- I am 23 years old and I am now finally pregnant after 8 months of trying. Hil is right, any cycle is one too many. It was absolute agony waiting for the test results each time and being sure for the first couple of months that I would be pregnant. Then in the last couple of months I started to give up hope. Now I'm so glad the trying part is over, I was getting so sick of other people saying "well that's the fun part!" There is nothing fun about wondering if you're truly barren.

Fast!
- I went off the pill and it took a month to get my normal period and then my husband and I got pregnant a few weeks later so it took less than 2 months!! We're now trying for our second! Hoping it's just as fast!!

What is happening?
- I am 21 yrs old and have for past two years ago but am unable to get pregnant, but I notice 1 thing is that any time I have sex with my husband and he release immediately the sperm will rush out back.

Different with each one
- It took me 5 months with my first son, then 11 months with my second, going to start trying for baby number 3 soon hopefully won't take to long.

Different each time.
- I thought because we had a birth control failure with our first that we'd have no problem trying again. I was wrong, took several years and fertility meds.

Too long!
- I know it wasn't really long in terms of half the people I know, but once you want to be pregnant, any cycle is 1 too many. It took me 13 months to get pregnant.
