Guide to Cervical Mucus (not for weak stomachs)

[JellyBeanDavey]

I just found this and for people that are unsure, this is really good....

Thanks, that was actually very useful, but yes it did make me feel a bit sick! I think just cos a couple of the pics looked like snot / phlegm and I always have a strong gag thing about that (most memorably aged 6 where I was on a bouncy castle and a boy flobbed on it... I promptly puked on it... gotta feel for the organisers who had to clean that up!)

Yuck but has really cleared some things up!

Although brings another question, tmi but I am cd 20, not sure if I have ov (only just started charting temp and they are a bit mountainous), but cm is really really watery, more so than I have ever noticed, can actually feel it shooting out of me at times - keep thinking I have wet myself ! Is this normal or a symptom of ov / pregnancy?

Any ideas?

When I am just about to ovulate I get very wet CM (never get EWCM except for sometimes just before AF weirdly). So I would take it as a good sign and get going DTD. Do you use OPKs as well? They can really help pinpoint what's going on whilst you get to know your cycle. Temping will really help too - been a bit of a revelation to me!

greenlizard thanks for reply! I don't use opks, just started with temping, not wanting to get myself too obsessed yet because I know how nuts I can get! But think I will next month!

Hi, there is a natural fertility expert that I have read a few of her posts on a different site, ties in with this quite well! One such post is about how to tell when you are feertile so all about recognising your bodies signs, some of which i guess I did not even tie into ovulation/fertility until I read it. May be worth a read, forum.prideangel.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=537 Hope this helps, shudn't make you sick anyway! xx
