I hope somebody can clear up my questions. I apologize in advance for TMI. But here goes. DH and I BD last night (According to the calendar...O day). Planned to stay in bed for 30 min but fell asleep. Woke up 3 hours later and went to the bathroom. Wipe and there was a bunch of clear goop....then dry after that. What would the clear goop be? Also....went to the bathroom this afternoon and got bit more when wiping. A tiny bit with a whitish tint. I do not know if this is CM or semen? Can anyone elaborate?

It's semen mixed with your body fluids. I had ask my doctor the same question. She told me that if you have sex and don't lay still for a total of 30min or more on your back with a pillow under your butt. It could be possible that the semen will leak out. So I started noticing what she said was true. So when I O I usually stay on my back for a lot longer then 30min maybe a few hours(if we do it before bed time) then I go to the bathroom and wipe and there's nothing there. But if I get up right afterwards I notice alot of semen and whity stuff mixed. SO best thing to do is stay on your back longer then 30mins. Give the semen time to swim.


Best of Luck

Well, I guess maybe I am doing something else wrong as I was on my back for at least 30 min ( probably more than an hour).... with a pillow under me. Any other suggestions?

One more question to add to my last post. Since this happened and you said it is semen mixed w/ body fluids....is there still a chance to possibly acheive PG?

I have to jump in here. While lying on you back for at least 30 minutes is a great idea, it is not absolutely necessary to acheive PG. There is a definately a chance that it worked. Everytime you and your DH BD, he gives you millions of "swimmies" and the ones that come out are only a fraction of what make it in. Besides, it only takes 1 :)
