How Long Does It Take to Get Pregnant?

I found myself pondering some reader questions the other day about time to pregnancy. How long does it typically take? If you got pregnant fast the first time, would it be fast the second? Faster? Slower? Did your age matter? In perusing the literature, I found that there was very little that would help me answer these questions.  So I decided to see if I could learn something more by asking all of you; it is your answers I’ll report on today.
