Funny, I was just talking to my counselor about this yesterday
When you first started ttc, how long did you think that it would take to conceive? about 3 cycles
How long has it been since you started? a year
Did you ever think it would take this long? never and I never thought I'd have two m/c's under my belt. DD was the first full cycle of DH being home from deployment. So I didn't this time around would be this way

When you first started ttc, how long did you think that it would take to conceive? I knew it was going to take a while because I am without my right tube
How long has it been since you started? 5 months
Did you ever think it would take this long? Luckily I'm still starting out in TTC. It took 3 months to get pregnant when we started but sadly baby went to heaven. Hopefully this time it will take 3 months or less. I'm on cycle 2 after the m/c

When you first started ttc, how long did you think that it would take to conceive? I was one of those people that thought it would happen right away (like in less than 3 months)
How long has it been since you started? It'll be a year next month
Did you ever think it would take this long? Nope! I try to tell myself on a daily basis though that because it's taking this long (and given me this much heartache) that it will be SO SO SWEET when it happens

When you first started ttc, how long did you think that it would take to conceive? A year - I always sensed that there was something wrong
How long has it been since you started? 3 years next week -with 2 m/c's already and 2 never confirmed pregnancies till now.
Did you ever think it would take this long? No. Having kids is what my body was meant to do, right? I expected bumps along the way, but never this concrete wall

When you first started ttc, how long did you think that it would take to conceive? I honestly didn't know but not anything like this.
How long has it been since you started? We started August 2008 so coming up on 4 years
Did you ever think it would take this long? Not in a million years. It truly breaks my heart that I can't make my husband a father.

When you first started ttc, how long did you think that it would take to conceive? a few months, everyone else in my family gets pg easily
How long has it been since you started? 4 years for Mallory and this time around we are on month 10. We got pg at month 6.
Did you ever think it would take this long? Never, not last time. And this time, I'd hoped that since I'd had a baby, it would be easier, for some reason. I just hope we get a sticky bean soon.

When you first started ttc, how long did you think that it would take to conceive? not long, it took one try for my youngest DD (although she is 10 now)
How long has it been since you started? we started in Oct 2006
Did you ever think it would take this long? OMG no!!! I never even considered the thought of it taking time or being difficult. The thought of miscarriage never even crossed my mind. NOW...it is all I think about.

How long has it been since you started? 1year+
Did you ever think it would take this long? No. I got pregnant with my DD and angel baby on the 2nd cycle of trying. Though with my daughter it took almost a year of WTTC because of my thyroid levels being way to high.

When you first started ttc, how long did you think that it would take to conceive? 2-3 months. My daughter was conceived while preventing and my son was a NTNP baby. I figured if I had two so easily without trying, that once I tried it would happen right away.
How long has it been since you started? 6.5 years
Did you ever think it would take this long? No way. I figured I'd have 2 or 3 by now and be pregnant again.

How long has it been since you started? 4 months, then a MC at 9 weeks, now on first month again
Did you ever think it would take this long? no. 4 months felt like forever, as i was pregnant first time with my 2 yr old. Hoping to TTC this month (First month) after MC

no no no no no no no no no Katie... don't give up. I know how hard it is... I still cry for everything I went through but don't you dare give up. You WILL be a mommy... your husband WILL be a daddy. It may be through adoption, or IVF or another way but it will happen. 4 years really f 's up your head... but don't you succumb to the depression and defeat. Oh no!

Thanks Missy I know you understand my pain. I just honestly don't know how much more of this emotional roller-coaster I can handle. I feel it has tested me in ways I never imagined and I'm more frustrated than I have ever been.

I never thought it would take long to get pregnant this time around cause I have four kids that I got pregnant with fairly easy. I always worry about mc because I have had them in between each of my kids and my first ever pregnacy ended in mc. It has been 2 years and about 5 months this time around with a mc at 14 weeks and at least two chemicals. So rite now me and dh are not trying but not preventing either,althoug in the back of my mind im always trying I just dont tell dh oh im ovulating lol. I have been doing my temps this month and did opks for one day wich dh dont know I did the opks he he my little secret. Im hoping it dont take two more years to get and stay pregnant.
