How do you feel when "af about to arrive"?

Also when preggers, is CM supposed to be different?

Endless, I can only really speak from my own experience and from what I have read but having been on the pill for 18 years and forgetting what it was like to have a real AF, I can tell there is a stark contrast! I now feel heavy in the lower tummy, I get headaches, bloating and extremely short tempered and tearful before AF. Plus the veins in my calves ache (varicose veins in my family). My temp does drop but not below coverline on 1st day of AF and cervix is low and firm.

CM is meant to dry up when the progestrone kicks in after OV, some people then get some more, even EWCM a few dpo and that is caused by an estrogen surge at that point. Otherwise, the books say there should not be CM after OV but JL2 had tons when she got her BFP last month and this month, I have tons too which is kind of making me hope!

Hope this helps!
