TTC in January

[BiscuitLover3678]

Pretty sure I’m out - AF any day now. Who else will be TTC this January?

Hi everyone hopping onto this thread new to mumsnet. Been TTC for 12 cycles now. On day 4 of cycle so over the disappointment and cramps and feeling hopeful this month will be the one. AF due on 15th Feb and she's always bang on time. I have a HSG next week and really really hoping if there is a blockage that will clear it :)

Good luck and baby dust to everyone xx

Af due around next weekend. I'm not clockwork. I have some spotting but it's kind of pink. I might not be able to hold off for a pregnancy test. I don't feel premenstrual but some months I get cramps for nearly a week and some months I get no symptoms except the first day of my period after starting.

I am definitely out. AF arrived Friday morning. Counting down the days now to ovulation again.

Hit send too quickly.

Good luck to everyone still waiting for their BFPs!

Well, I couldn't wait till the weekend. Yesterday day 26 got a negative test. Periods due tomorrow, but I have been getting spotting for a few d so maybe It just didn't pick it up. I'll wait a and see.ays so

Af right on time today. So I'm out too. Good luck with your hsg golden goose.

Sorry @Bramblecrumble21. Thanks for your message HSG was yesterday evening. Bit scary and uncomfortable but all clear. AF due 15th so fingers crossed for a happy valentines present.

So sorry @Bramblecrumble21
It's no fun when AF arrives. I'm now CD8 of my next cycle.

I have to book my HSG when next AF arrives. Couldn't do it this month as I hadn't had the chlamydia test in time.
Just wondering whether they said anything about the risk of whether the HSG interfere with implantation if you are lucky that month? I'm assuming as it is done before ovulation it isn't very high.

Sorry for tagging on, thought I was out this month as no positive ovulation then the family had covid and AF was due yesterday but I’ve taken about 5 tests and I’m certain I can see a hint of something. Can anyone see faints here? Is it likely a chemical if I’m already late and it’s so faint?

@pinkpirlie
The conditions of my HSG were that they were done between day 5-12 of cycle (i.e. before ovulation) I also had a hCG blood analysis pregnancy test done in the 48 hours prior to HSG and no unprotected sex after that pregnancy test to avoid any possibility of the HSG interfering. Hope that helps.

@Cookmeanumber3
That looks like a positive to me, I haven't ever had a positive test, so cannot comment on strength, but I have read it can take several days after AF is due to get darker.
Perhaps test in a couple of days again to see if it gets darker. Have you done a FRER? That may show a darker line...

I used to assist in hsgs as a radiographer. They can cause miscarriage + use radiation so try and book it soon after af. I wouldn't want to do it. Af is disappointing but I'd forgotten about my smear so now have that booked. Plus, I only started taking folic acid recently so it gives it more time to build up in my system.

@pinkpirlie the top was yesterday and bottom today so looks like it’s a chemical. All the best for this cycle for you! Fingers crossed for some good news 🤞🏻

So sorry @Cookmeanumber3
Best wishes to you.
