Usually within 1-2 days of AF (I usually write MP).

A smidge too early.

Sure. In fact there was a paper years ago which indicated that of every
15 fertilized eggs, only 5 people known they're pregnant and of the 5, 1
miscarries and 4 carry successfully.

It takes an average healthy couple 6 months to get pregnant with a range
of 1-18 months. At 29, we don't normally do testing with regular cycles
until 12 months. 85% of women get pregnant within 6 months and 92 %
within one year, hence the 12 months.
