Does having lots of fertile CM at the time of attempts make a difference?

I've been doing the e4d method as leaning towards preferring a girl but on each attempt (on Monday and then again Friday) I had absolutely loads of fertile CM. In fact I did that whole week. Would it sway? X

I do not think so, I know it is/was thought that it may be a good indicator of things but turned out to show that it made no difference to results and ma even have prevented conception for the people who were really trying t make it disappear. The single attempt or 4 day method is showing amazing results from what Ive been following regardless of cm amounts:) good luck this month:luck:

We originally thought it mattered but we saw sooooo many EWCM opposites I no longer believes it means anything at all.

I got my 4th boy with no visible CM (didn't even get a pH rise on a test stick) and then got my girl with EWCM.

Thanks atomic.
Took a test this morning. I'm pregnant.
I did E4D, so CD10, CD14 and the last BD was on CD18. Not actually sure when I ovulated but I had absolutely LOADS of ewcm all week and I just had a gut feeling I absolutely would get pregnant this cycle.
Not sure why feel so nervous but I do! Xx

Thank you atomic. I got my daughter following the E4D pattern (I was on this site in 2017 but forgot log in details so created a new one!) So I dont quite know why I'm so nervous.
Hers were Monday and Friday attempts too, just like this one. But I did OPKs with her and I think I ovulated on the Wednesday in between. This one I'm actually not sure when I ovulated.

Sorry for the ramble, if all goes well I will be coming back to let you know the full sway and what I did with diet etc x
