I began spontaneously having them, but would only have a couple a year. After I read the First Laberge book, my frequency increased to once a month or so. After coming here and learning, I am now up to 2-3 per week. If I ever master WILD, I expect to get to at least one per night.

As for how long... Three weeks isn't bad. Many here took much longer than that.
I second Lowercase Society, buy the book and do the exercises. And keep a positive attitude! If you go to bed tense everynight, chances are you won't LD. Get in the Christmas Eve state of mind, you know, presents waiting for you when you fall asleep.

Good luck!
