CM and Ov question

Hi all

Hope you are all well. I have got a question which I hope some one might be able to help me with.

Just been to the loo and wiped and noticed the smallest amount of strechy CM. The CM was clear - this is the EWCM that people talk about? Also does this mean I have OV or I am about too? This is the first month since January I have noticed any CM at all so fingers crossed.

Also DH is away on a stag weekend this week. We managed to bd on Monday evening and Thursday evening (we did try wednesday but I decided to be drier then ever down below and we couldn't manage it - sorry if tmi). If we manage tomorrow when DH is back (hopefully he will be in fit state) will we have chance to catch the eggy?

Thanks

Hi Mrs Calopa

Don't claim to be an expert on this but worked out when I thought I had ov'd last month by how much EWCM I had. When af turned up it worked out that I was one day out so I think it is a good sign. I had a bit before ov and then quite a lot (sorry tmi) on the day I ov'd.

From reading on here I think that his sperm can last for awhile where as the egg doesn't have as long. If you bded on Thursday and can try to tomorrow too then I would say you have a chance to catch it but as I said quite new to this myself.

Hope all goes well and let us know how you get on xxx

I know never thought I would talk about it so openly either :LOL:

Hi Mrs Calopa.

I think the EWCM is indication that you are about to ov. The egg lasts a couple of days, if the sperm gets past the cervix it can survive for up to five.

You could still catch that egg. Go for it! xx
