Advice Wanted Was it easy to get pregnant again?

Had an “oopsie” on Saturday with hubby! We have a 8 month old, and I’m breastfeeding still. Got my period back 3 months PP. I guess I checked my Flo app, and confirmed with my symptoms, but I definitely ovulated two or three days after this “oopsie”.
When you got pregnant a 2nd time, was it a one time & done situation or did it take multiple cycles?

Edit:

I’m internally screaming right now, and will be updating in 2 weeks lol

Been pregnant 5 times, 3 living babies. The first time I got pregnant after a few months and that ended in a blighted ovum when I was 22. Waited until I was 28 with a different partner to start trying again and the second pregnancy took 4 years of trying and multiple rounds of IVF so we figured it wouldn’t happen quickly or easily when we decided to start trying again. My second living child and third pregnancy was a one and done. Fourth time I got pregnant after 4 months without actively trying. Last time was a one and done that ended in a chemical pregnancy. Again not trying it just happened after one unprotected act. I’ve heard for some they have secondary infertility and struggle to get pregnant after having a kid.
