Time to wait on the pregnancy test

Welcome visitor from get pregnant blog-us-flag to Getpregnantblog.com get pregnant blog smiley.

Well, this is the time of my cycle when I get to find out if I am pregnant. It’s CD28 and if there is no sign of a period by Monday, I get to test. Yesterday morning after hubby and I made love there was some pink stuff, so I thought it was showing early. Last cycle, I spotted every day for 3 days before it actually came which is very odd for me. But then all day yesterday and so far today, nothing.

I know it’s very possible the HSG worked and I could be pregnant this month. If not, then perhaps it will happen next cycle. The pregnancy inducing efforts of the HSG are supposed to last for a few months. We are sort of thinking about postponing the IUI until after the wedding which is a few months away. The truth is that we can’t afford a wedding and an IUI. And all the stress of planning a wedding might make my body not conducive to conception. So it might end up being a waste of money.


I am loathe to put it off, but it makes the most sense. And I have a strong feeling that we will get pregnant naturally without the IUI. I have a suspicion that the real problem is stress. Once I can relax…. I have always found it difficult to relax. But I am working on being more relaxed and not worrying. Of course, trying to get pregnant adds an additional element of stress but I am trying new techniques to be calm and peaceful. I am also trying not to stress about if I am pregnant as I sit here writing this. I guess the weekend will tell.
