    Mucus meltdown

    I’m on cd 11 and not seeing any ewcm yet. Last time- first o pp- it started almost 2 weeks prior to ovulation. Am I not as blue friendly this time? Do boy moms get ewcm a week before ovulation? Should I wait another month?

    It doesn't say anything about your blue friendliness. While we originally started off with an assumption that CM mattered (and it very well may) it doesn't appear to be possible for us to SEE this happening. We are seeing and have seen over the years, too many CM opposites going every which way to tell anything about whose sways will work and whose don't on this basis. I got my 4th boy with NO visible CM, I was testing pH 2-3 times a day, and didn't even know I'd ovulated when I conceived. Then my girl I did have CM for a few days, even after ovulation (my ovulation was confirmed by ultrasound) and this is what I've seen again and again. People come to me all the time sure they can't possibly have a (girl/boy) and yet DO have a (boy/girl). So many CM opposites that I now no longer think we can tell ANYTHING about whose sways will work on that basis. There may be changes in CM but it isn't amount or even consistency that lets us know whose sways are going to be successful.

    While some people in some months don't notice CM till right around O, I wonder if you might be ovulating a little later?

    I would not ever recommend waiting on this basis. What if next month is worse!

    As you know my PP cycles only resumed 3 months ago so still fairly new - the first no cm and no viable O (short cycle)/ second cycle perfect, cm ahead of O and lining up beautifully with signs and about 12 days LP.. 3 Rd cycle used opks they were positive and then no cm no friskiness, nothing… waited and stopped testing thinking it was a redo of 1st cycle.. well, got frisky and cm appeared a whole week later with O signs .. and my 4th cycle started this week lining up with that later O!

    It can take a while for things to be regular PP - so you may well just O a tad later !
