7 months trying

My Husband and I have been trying for 7 months for our 1st baby. I have regular cycles, and I have had multiple positive ovulation tests. However, I was previously on birth control for approximately 7 years before we started trying. Idk if that is making the process longer. Is there anyone else who had a regular cycle and it just took some time before you got pregnant? Was there anything you did different that month? Any hopeful words are helpful!
