Is this EWMC??? (TMI inside)

Hello Ladies,

Sorry for the newbie question but I need your help once again!

Yesterday and today my OPK result was very very dark tough not as dark as the control line (as I told you in my previous post in "Waiting O" area yesterday).

Well, just in case, yesterday night we BD.

****WARNING! TMI AREA BELOW****

This afternoon I was checking my CP and I felt something smooth around the cervix. I curved my finger and tried to pull it out. Oh! I was surprised that it was a very strechy plug of mucus, i needed to pull it out with two fingers (like muzzarella cheese), it streched for good 4cm or so!!! It was clear, i could mould it between my fingers and strech it again and again.

I think this is the most Egg-White-like-mucus i've could ever notice though my vagina feels quite dry and not slippery. Am I right? Is this how the EWCM should be?

****END OF TMI AREA****

Another question: We BD yesterday. Should we BD again today or will it make any harm for the sperms from yesterday? Should we wait until tomorrow to BD?

Please, please, any opinion will be very welcome!

Thank you again, Ladies!

I wish you all tons of luck and the best positive vibes!!

Love,

Marcia, the O Fairy desperate catcher! :D

I think you've definitely got EWCM!!! Keep BDing until your temp rises and stays up for three days, or until your CM dries up!!

I don't really know what to tell you but maybe someone else can help you out. I definetly know that EW CM is very stretchy b/c I posted before about how to tell the differnce between spermies and fertile CM. Well from what I have been told F CM can be stretched multiple times where as spermies are very similar looking can't be streched more than like once.

As to the BDing my motto is if you have creamy or EWC BD! I hope that you caught that egg! ++++++++++++ Vibes for you and good luck keep us posted!

Hey, Marcia! I just LOVE your warnings! Too cute! I'd say you most definitely have EWCM there! Yeehaw! If you have any reason to think that DH may have a low sperm count (does he smoke/ drink? anything like that?)then I would say to wait to bd again. Otherwise bding every day during your fertile time is great. Sometimes, to be on the safe side, DH and I will bd every 36 hours- morning, next night, next morning etc. It's a matter of him building up enough semen/sperm to have another go.

GL to you and I hope you catch it!

Candybaby, Jen and Tara,

Thank you very much for your opinions!

It was really nice of you to share your knowledge, thank you, thank you.

Tara, DH doesn't smoke and he does drink one or two (or three or four) cans of cider/beer per week. Yesterday he arrived home too tired and stressed to BD so maybe we'll try during this weekend.

Oh, and forgive me if i delay to reply but as I live in UK we have a big difference of time, around 5 hours or more. So sometimes I'll only reply next day...

Good luck for all of you, ladies!

love,

Marcia
