    Hello...?? CM...where are you??

    Hello ladies,

    I'm hoping someone can help me with this...I'm CD15, expecting to ovulate any day...and I have barely had any CM at all

    I'm just wondering if this could perhaps be linked to me starting to take Elevit 4 weeks ago? (previously I had been taking just folate on its own) I have always had some sort of CM around time of ovulation. Has anyone else experience side-effects from Elevit?

    Or, I guess...we've had a pretty rough month and I'm pretty stressed at the mo, also had a virus a couple of weeks ago, maybe that could affect it too?

    Grrr...so frustrating!!

    Maybe the stress factor?? Don't really know, but I have a HUGE amount for some reason - happy to donate

    I find that sometimes I get lots of egg white CM and other months pretty much nothing. Maybe it's just that some months we produce more than others. Not very scientific i know, just a suggestion.

    I agree with krisp - sometimes you just don't seem to get any at all.

    I read on FF that doing your pelvic floor exercises may bring it to the surface (so to speak) ...

    You mentioned that you have been sick.. Did you happen to take any cold and flu tablets or antihistimene (sp?) I have heard that something in those kinds of medications can hinder the production of CM. I dont know how true this is but i have read it on a couple of websites..

    Try not to stress about it too much. When i was on the BCP i always got heaps of EWCM around the time i should have ovulated. Yet as soon as i came off the pill i got none. Quite liteerally none for the whole 7 months before i got UTD. I just BD around the time that i thought i should o, but interstingly the last month (when i got pregnant) i used preseed and thats when it finally happened. I dont know if it had anything to do with it - but it was the only thing that we did differently!

    Good luck huni - i hope that you get your BFP soon!!!!!!!

    I'm in the same boat as Elyse - i use to get heaps while on the pill and i got loads just before my first period off the pill but since then its seems to be MIA! I check my CM internally which has helped a lot but I've only had EWCM once and I've since worked out that was just after suspected ovulation. This month I had definite watery CM and we used Pre Seed around O so hopefully that has helped us to achieve our BFP.

    I'd strongly suggest getting Pre Seed and giving it a go. I bought mine online through Lullaby Conceptions
