We had bee NTNP for 3 years. DH has low testerone and had stopped taking his shots a few months prior. We tried for over a year and a half with Elijah so I know my cycles better than anyone should. I know over 3 years we DTD in the window of time to get pg all but maybe 10 mo.ths because "o" time is the only time I have a sex drive. We were both still shocked though we knew it was a possibility since it hadn't happened before now.

Decided the week of March 13 to stop preventing and see what happens. March 26 got BPF. Freaked me out big time cause I thought it would take a while, but wow still just writing it shocks me.

Exact same thing happened here! Guess that's why they say it only takes once....

This time took 3 cycles actively trying. My first son took 10 cycles, and my 2nd son happened on the first cycle trying :-)

We were not ttc. My husband has used the pull-out method for 5 years. Yes, we are adults and realize that this is a very bad method of birth control. I didn't care because I wanted one more baby anyway. One time, he was enjoying himself too much and didn't pull out! I knew I was fertile, so I wasn't surprised when I found out I was pregnant, but he was! Oops!

Went off BC in Dec'11 and got my BFP in Mar'12.
My cycle hadn't regulated yet so in we DTD 5 times in what I thought was my fertile window based on a 25day cycle. And it worked! Thank god for the AF tracker app that I started using or I would have no idea when I may have been O'ing!
TTC and now being pregnant has been and continues to be an education for me!

I went off BC the middle of February. Originally went off BCP because I was having bad side effects. So DH went NTNP and I was TTC. Then got BFP on 4/9/12. It was technically 2nd cycle. But it was extra long cycle, didnt O till day 39 I think. I really had counted this cycle out but there was other plans in store.

I am still nursing my 17 month old so I never got a post-partum period until Feb 2012 (yes, 2 yrs with no period! it was awesome haha) then after that DH and I just decided we wouldnt prevent and wouldnt try. But I still followed my "fertile signs" like CM and all that, and we got pregnant on that first cycle after I got my first period. Crazy, huh? And actually, turns out it happened a whole 10 days after I thought I had ovulated, when we thought we were "safe".

We have been NTNP since I got my period back after my 2nd son was born (around June 2011). But, I had been tracking my ovulation so that I wouldn't get pregnant in March or April (to prevent the Dec/Jan due date), so it was a big surprise to find out I was pregnant. And obviously my ovulation date was off in March...

This one was a surprise! We have had our share TTC though. We had 3 m/c's that all happened very easily (second cycle, first cycle, and third cycle) then it took a year to conceive DD1 with meds and IUI. For DD2 we went straight to the RE and did one cycle of meds and IUI.
