Ovulating without mucous? TMI I'm sure!

Ok, I'm at the point of my cycle that I would be ovulating - or AM ovulating - but no mucous to speak of? This is the first time that I have noticed it NOT being there, even though I have small cramps on and off every few days so I should be ovulating? I've always ovulated on day 14 of my cycle, and today is day 14..... but no mucous!!

Has this happened to anyone else? Last month I had an absolute crapload of mucous - and this month - nothing??

I don't know whether to post it here, or in the postnatal stuff - but thought I would get more answers here. I have no idea about what mucous belongs in which part of the cycle - so looking for some help!

Are you sure you are not pregnant?

Mind you, usually I have not much, the last 3 months I have has so much ewcm i feels like period and clots (TMI!! lol)

sorry, I got nothin'!

I highly doubt it. We had unprotected sex last month on cycle day 19 - and then I got AF the day she was due, which was day 28. So.. :dunno:??

It is possible to ovulate and not get any mucous... but I don't know how that would tie in with you having had a bub last year.

Sorry hun, I don't know...

Thanks Nic :hug: Its reassuring to see that its possible to ovulate without mucous. I'm so clueless about this stuff.

:rofl:

We really got nothin'!!

and echoing forest gump

And thats all I gotta say 'bout that right now

got somethin to share Melly?

ETA - I dont always get ovulation cervical mucous (which from my TTC days should be egg white mucous I think?). I think its just luck of the draw.

I got nothin to share my friend.

And I'm not listening to Maz-a-roonie over there.... noooo way my friend.. noooo way...

Yep I think you can :D GL

Yep, I know 110% you can cos I have a few times...I have also not ovulated at all quite a lot. But looking back on charts where I o'ed, just a bib of creamy cm but pretty much nothing, definately no fertile cm. Hope that helps/reassures you :D

Phew.. ok... I can... so its not something I need to see the doc about?

Seriously, with all the cervical cancer things you get warned about, if anything slightly out of the usual monthly stuff happens - I freak out a little! :redface:

When I've just finally come to peace with my decision to stay with the 3 kids and not go for a 4th - it is bad.. I don't want to have to process it all again ya know? Hard enough the first time round :redface:

I'd love a 4th just as much as the others, but I don't want to think about it being possible because then a little part of me gets my hopes up ya know? Then I get hurt when I'm not... :(

LMFAO - not a smear in your knickers woman!!
A PAP smear! :rofl:

sick sick puppy

I was talking about a pap smear... ;)

NOW who has the dirtiest mind of all the village?

ROFL!!!

ROFL!!

:redface: I thought "no she cant be worried if she only had a pap last month....what is she talking about??"
I blame Maz - when she is around my mind always goes to the gutter ;p :rofl:

New doctor that I have never been to before.. always worry that they aren't really good ya know?

I am in the same boat, usally get lots of EWCM around ovulation time but this month I had nadda, nothing. I definitely think I had O'd this month as I had the cramps that I usally get but... Im not sure if sperm can easily get to the egg if theres no CM for it to swim in??
I am in the 2ww now so its a case of wait and see for me...:pray:

The only thing that differed for me this month with the no CM was that AF came two days late?

Half the time I get bugger all CM then the other half I get a crap load.. luck of the draw I guess huh!!

Diff being that we are trying!!! I think this month is out... but whatch out next cycle!! DH will have NO skin left...

Any how back to CM... Its possible...

HTH

About 1 hour after I posted that I have had no/very little cm this month, I took a Pg test and it was :bfp: !! So Im thinking amout of CM or lack of doesnt entirely stop the sperm in its tracks LOL. :dance:

Haha!! Congrats sweetgloss!!!

Arimeh - Just thought I would pop in and give you an answer to your question. In my March cycle I had a heap of cm during "O", and during my "O" in April I had nothing, I had the "O" pains but no cm. Yet guess what? I am now 6wks 5days pg. So you definately can "O" without cm and fall pg. I was only telling my BB at the time I believed I was "o"ing on how dry I was and I would be amazed if I fell pg. lol
