    I was wondering how easy you found it to conceive your first child depending on your age. Would you mind doing a quick poll to see if the the results follow a pattern or not?

    Just a bit of fun really :cheer:

    Hope the answers don't confuse you :think:

    I voted: I was between 26-35 - It took more than 6 months

    I was 26 and it took 28 months from coming off the pill to my BFP.


    Edit: opps, I read the question wrong! I came off the pill at 26 and concieved at aged 28, 28 months later.

    So looking at the results, in the 18-25 category.. people are 30% more likely to conceive within 6months.

    In the 26-35 group, people are 6% more likely to conceive within 6 months and over 40's have a 50% chance either way.

    Hope i've read the results properly.

    Thanks ladies :D
