I had a lot of this with this pregnancy early on (35 weeks with DC4)!

I pressume its just the plug building up, and nothing to worry about. As long as its not foul smelling, or you have any other symptoms that could point to infection then I wouldn't worry.

Congratulations on your BFP!

I was actually very surprised at how much I had, it came and went probably up to about 17 weeks if I remember right!

I could have wallpapered my front room with the bloody stuff!!! Grin

I got that as an early sign of pregnancy about 2 days before a BFP. Apparently you get a 2nd surge of estrogen just before your period (but not as strong as the one you get just before ovulation causing EWCM) but if you are pregnant the second estrogen surge is stronger and could cause EWCM.

Ah ok I see LIG I was wondering why on earth I would have it as it was a sign of ov .

Hahah more proper lol there !!! Grin

Yes I got lots of cm in the week after I got my bfp. It kept giving me a fright as I thought it was my period starting.
