Hi all just creating a new thread since the other one is almost full!!! Really really hoping this is our month, but not hopeful, DH is away with work for most of my FW and only comes home the day before I think I will ov. I've also injured my back!!!

Hi @Olegia welcome! I think your CM can change up all the time but it does normally dry up after ovulation, but don’t forget it’s also there to give us a good clean so it could just be doing it’s thing!

I don’t know where I stand this month, was thinking I’d missed peak but tested this morning and my LH is up again (but not near peak) I do have PCOS so meh. Any thoughts?

Need to track BBT next month but I always forget!

Thanks! I also don't produce much EWCM mucus in general (at least none that I can see), I hope that won't affect my chances too much

I haven't been having any symptoms at all since ovulation, then again we're only on day DPO 2, I'm reading loads of threads on how long it takes people to get pregnant and it just seems to be so random all the time, even per woman!

I also have PCO, and actually I find that my surge is very very quick, I really need to catch it at the right time, so perhaps you're in a similar situation?
I see you missed the morning on the 19th, perhaps that would have been a strong T/C ratio?
I find that any reading I take that's not in the morning (first or second wee) is usually quite low, even if I have just ovulated
Do you have very irregular periods with your PCOS?

Only good thing about AF arriving is going to my friend’s leaving night out tonight and I don’t need to try to come up with excuses or kid on I’m drinking 😅 trying to take it that someone has a plan for me for next month

ScaredSally · 22/10/2022 09:58

@Littleheart5 you look out for everything dont you... the only thing I've had is a change in CM but I definitely this AF is coming, major style achey cramps this morning

Littleheart5 · 22/10/2022 09:38

@ScaredSally fingers crossed for you it isn’t AF. I was using OPKs so I’m positive mine isn’t caused by ovulation. The TWW is so hard, reading into all these micro symptoms!

ScaredSally · 22/10/2022 07:31

@Daisy155 i was pretty sure I ovulated CD19, did another OPK just in case I didn't and was ovulating now and definitely negative... going to keep an eye on it just in case

@Littleheart5 in 11dpo today (if I ovulated when I thought I did)

im starting to think AF is on its way though, have a really heavy feeling like I normally get so think the CM was just trying to throw me off haha

Daisy155 · 22/10/2022 00:46

@ScaredSally i had this as well have you tested your ovulation throughout this cycle?

I found out I ovulated late and I had sticky CM and also watery discharge but then I didn’t do anything or test and I know for a fact that was my ovulation 2 weeks later unfortunately AF arrived my second one it came late though this time due to ovulating late and ended just 2 days ago.

fingers crossed for you xx

Littleheart5 · 21/10/2022 23:57

8 DPO @ScaredSally what about you?

Mummyme87 · 21/10/2022 19:32

@Brunette1989 who is your work health insurance with? I have AXA corporate with my OH work but waiting to find out if they cover fertility, some stuff online says they don’t but then loads of private consultants say they accept AXA 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

ScaredSally · 21/10/2022 19:26

@Littleheart5 oh really? How many dpo are you?

Olegia · 21/10/2022 19:12

Hey all,
Just popping in for a quick question, I thought this thread would be the most appropriate: I've ovulated for sure yesterday morning, and we DTD yesterday afternoon as well as the day before yesterday, (and on Sunday too) so definitely timed that right.
I've been having for the first time quite gummy cervical mucus, not sticky as such, but that I could quite literally pull out and it form into a ball almost... Isn't that weird?

Ncl31 · 21/10/2022 18:57

@CheeryCupcake sorry to hear AF has arrived. I’m awaiting for it to arrive too. I’d rather it just did so I can get on with it and start again next month

Littleheart5 · 21/10/2022 18:22

I’m the same @ScaredSally so interested to see what others say

CheeryCupcake · 21/10/2022 18:21

😞AF appears to have just arrived. Disappointed, all the symptoms I had were nothing like my normal AF symptoms and weren't pleasant so really hoping that's not now my new PMS normal. Oh well, I'll just hope for better luck next month!

ScaredSally · 21/10/2022 16:43

Seem to be having an increase in CM, watery and abit tacky, but can't remember if that's normal for me (only had 2 periods after my stillbirth) - is this normal?

My2boysaremyworld · 21/10/2022 12:45

@BellaTheDarkOverlord bless ya, hope you get the reassurance you need xx

kizzy97 · 21/10/2022 12:41

@MendaciousMabel I'm not too bad atm just feels like a cold, but I did another covid test this morning and it was negative! So god knows at this point 😂

Sparklythings1 · 21/10/2022 12:35

@Rosie2228 that sounds very promising!

iloveeggs · 21/10/2022 12:21

2 days late today, cramping and so so tired. Don't want to be out but I feel AF is on her way. BFN last 2 days :(

BellaTheDarkOverlord · 21/10/2022 11:54

@My2boysaremyworld yea x EPAU refused to see me without a GP referral and GP said I should refer myself and won't refer me. So I'm stuck between either of them not wanting to see me.

My2boysaremyworld · 21/10/2022 11:30

@BellaTheDarkOverlord is it a private scan you have booked? Xx

BellaTheDarkOverlord · 21/10/2022 11:29

@My2boysaremyworld 7 weeks today. Only things I've had is aching boobs. No tiredness or nausea. Had a nosebleed yesterday. No cravings. I hope scam shows everything is ok despite lack of symptoms.

Rosie2228 · 21/10/2022 11:05

Hello, just wanted to jump on too. I’m day 31, so AF is 2 days late now. I’m having quite a lot of symptoms. Breast changes, mood swings. I can’t stop weeing, some of the changes I can’t make up like breast size and getting “spider veins” . Didn’t even know that was a thing! Still getting negatives so starting to worry. I didn’t track down ovulation date as I was on holiday so I’m keeping everything crossed 🤞

ScarletDreams · 21/10/2022 11:00

Hi , me again.
I'm so confused with my tracking. Is this normal? 😕
