even though we all have the "same" chance...

do you ever think it is really just easier for some people to get pg than others? I know the stats say if all are healthy there is a 25% chance, but how come it seems like some people can get pg so much easier- like they have a bigger %? I have friends that got pg quickly and I swear one has no idea what a BFN looks like. I don't know.. I think I am just rambling and having a moment. Chat Icon

I do believe that some couples are just more fertile than others.

i definitely think that... everyone is different... i think 25% is just an average number and doesnt apply to everyone.... there are way to many individual factors that its not possible for 25% to apply to everyone!

It definitely does seem that way. Then again, I have gotten pregnant quite easily in the past, and now I am on month 9 of TTC...

we dont all have the same chance, it depends on age. from what i remember its only 25% until age 25. after that between 25-30 its 20%, 30-35 its 15%, and over 35 its 10%. i might be off a bit with the range but its something like that.

and keep in mind thats for a perfectly "healthy" couple.
that doesnt take into account any possible issues that may be unknown - hormonal/ovarian dysfunction, sperm issues (even minor), chromosomal issues, genetic matches, etc.

definitely depends on age and what your health is like.

Re: even though we all have the "same" chance...

i dont even ovulate so its def not the same for me as it is everyone else

i think it happens for some people faster and sometimes i feel like when we here x person is preggo we assume it happened 1-2-3 and we dont know if they were trying for year

if its luck,good genes,good timing,better sperm,better eggs or all of the other millions of reasons i just look at it as it was their time and mine will come soon too
