Some advice needed (TMI maybe)

[Tillyxx]

Hello everyone,
Im new here...

I have a question, and im sorry if its a tmi one!!!

Im pretty sure i ov'd on fri the 1st. Throughout this week ive been getting heavy watery cm. **sorry** So much so it leaks through my knickers. *really sorry now*. Its just like water, no odour, not sticky or anything! Its horrible, when i stand i can feel it gush out..
Is this normal?? Im due for AF fri 15th.

Three days after ov i had some sharp shooting pains in my lower tummy..

Also this week ive been getting mild cramps, the sort you get before AF and also the sort when i normally OV..

Any help ??!!

Do you normally track CM? Is it differnt to your usual pattern? Not sure as watery CM suggests it's still fertile CM, usually it goes to sticky after O are you sure you have definately O'ed?

not 100%, but had the pains that i normally get last week, and last week would have been when i should have..also had the cm then but it was a little thicker. (not just water) Then i felt a few sharp twinges in my lower stomach. Then everything seemed to dry up and then another day after that theres been alot of watery cm. And thats been for about 5 days!! bit odd

I agree a bit odd. I'd say that watery CM can be fertile CM so I'd get BDing big time!

Really does sound like very fertile CM. I have read that fertile CM can come shortly before AF, I have had that a few times but not lots of it.

I'd be wearing panty liners till you know more

Cheers,

Thanks for all your help, just one more thing that corncerns me though.. Why has this been like this for a week? I thought Ovulation is normally supposed to last 48 hrs. Ive been 'leaking' and cramping for 6 days...

Hi Tilly,

Welcome to BB..



If you really are concerned, if it is not normal for you, id be going to see a dr. Just to be safe....

Hope you get some answers!!!!

I know for us as soon as we strted ttc and tracking o my cycles went haywire. My first week charting I o'd about 5 days after I assummed I would (thank God I was charting or I would have thought I was pg) sometimes you body wrks it's way up to o and you may have symptoms for quite a few days until your body is really ready.

It could also be (TMI) leftovers iykwim especially if you have been bd more than usual and are used to using condoms or something?

Hey thanks for the welcome!

Im not sure, i think ill just leave it for a few days and see what happens. Normally at Ov ill get a thickish stretchy cm (like last sat). but ever since then its been like a chalky watery substance. xx

Oh I am going through the sort of thing at the moment. I am pretty sure I Ov on 1 Aug (we BD the night before) as I had a big globby CM come out (it wasnt DH stuff either, um sorry if TMI) which was watery and should be the usual fertile CM and today I have had that watery CM like u have mentioned (and Im finding odd also)?? I must admit though, I have had other creamy type CM since Ov, so im very confused also.

Hello, glad im not the only one!!
Well mine calmed down alot since yesterday and turned into what i can only explain as a velvety cm. Maybe i did ov late, or twice even.
Not sure but im still getting mild cramps (like the ones a day after af has shown).

Oh and no im not used to using condoms, ttc for over 3 years unfortunatly.
