cm question.

[mandyp85]

Hi ladies, I apologise in advance for the tmi but I haven't had any cm that is considered "fertile" during the last few days, I believe o is today, it's been cloudy and slightly tacky all week, until today when it's lotion like (I have had my attempt this week, on Wednesday) and I'm just concerned that it will seriously hinder my chance of pregnancy this month or is that generally how the cm goes after being on the diet? Thank you.

You can always use a tiny bit of a sperm friendly lube, Conceive Plus or Yes Baby, only enough to make BDing more comfortable. I had to during months where CM was pretty well gone.

Around my cervix there seemed to be ample amounts, not loads but not verging on being dry either, my concern is the consistency of it, would that sort of cm make getting pregnant pretty difficult? I know the point of the le diet is to slowly reduce fertility so I accept I may find it harder to get pregnant but is that lotion like cm the type that we want for conceiving girls?

Strangely I always ovulate & am fertile the week after my EWCM changes to creamy. It took me 5 years to get pregnant with my first baby because I was going on CM consistency. My second & 3rd, when I started ignoring CM consistency, I was pregnant very quickly. I would go on other methods of fertility/ovulation prediction (OPK, temperature etc) rather than worrying too much about CM.

So Mandy, I think I get what you're asking. I actually have the same issue. I'm assuming it's diet (and breastfeeding in my case).
I am not sure the answer, bc I thought creamy/cloudy was harder for sperm to pass through in general, but idk - probably IS better for TTC pink

Thank you :-) I haven't noticed any ewcm at all this month and I just bd'd 2 days before I expected to ovulate, I have a 28 day cycle which doesn't seem to change. I caught the egg last month with the same timing which unfortunately ended in a chemical. I have no experience of using opks so I'm not sure if it's a good idea to start now. As long as I know it's not impossible to get pregnant with that consistency of cm I'm happy with that :-) Thank you for taking the time to reply.

Well I'm hoping that it just means the diet is working and I'm assuming that's the case but just wanted some reassurance really. I guess anything that makes it harder to get pregnant sways pink so I'm guessing it's a good sign, well fingers crossed anyway. Thank you for taking the time to reply :-)
