Conceiving after first child

Hi moms Just wondering, how easy was it to conceive your second after your first? My husband and I have not done the did for the past 2 years since we had our first. We were so afraid of having accidental kids so we started trying only last month. I thought it was easy and a one time thing like we did with our first but when I saw it was negative I was taken aback 😅 sounds abit silly cos I know there are people who have been trying for years. But for those with number 1 how easy and any tips to conceive number 2? #advicepls #pleasehelp #firsttimemom

yes it’s silly to have that expectation. you were younger and the timing was probably right. you haven’t been trying for so long this time and your body has aged after the first pregnancy. the conceiving timing and frequency might not have been optimal for pregnancy. you need to do it consecutively at least 2 times before ovulation and after ovulation for higher success rates. we did it for 6 days straight across ovulation and got pregnant.
