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

Hey. My hub and I didn’t deliberately try to conceive few months before our LO turns 12months. Been having negative results as we also didn’t use ovulation prediction kits to track ovulation. I just used the period app to see my fertility period but super inaccurate. I ovulated late each time. Just when my hub n I just don’t care about ovulation n fertile window, I conceived surprisingly! I can’t even go for my planned overseas trip due to morning sickness. Some background: I even ordered ovulation prediction kits and pregnancy kits before I conceive that month. Guess it’s really God’s timing and not ours. I’ve heard of so many stories of couples having difficulty in conceiving the 2nd time and thought will happen to us. OPKs are definitely helpful in tracking the peak of ovulation.
