the closer you are to AF arriving???

I have noticed that since the middle of the month say like the 16th or so my CM has been plentiful and is lotion-like in subtance. I don't want to jump to conclusions but I distinctly(sp??) remember having the feeling of leaking with my 1st preg. I have it now. I had the day off today and slept ALL DAY. I didn't get out of bed till 3:30, and the times I did get up I felt sick to my stomach. Like I said before I don't want to get ahead of myself...but doesn't CM change up for impending AF??? I O'd between 11/16-11/23 (MMC Charting) right now avg 41 day cycle. I stocked up on $1 Store test from October becasue that was a delayed AF. I am having slight pains on the right side of my lower ab as I type this. My next AF is due 12/5. I'm trying to hold out till this weekend ATLEAST Sunday b4 testing. HTH u helping me.

Hi there.. I've heard the same thing that CM is supposed to dry up before AF arrives, and that sometimes alot of CM can mean pregnancy. But for me, I tend to have very lotion-like and creamy CM right up until AF arrives and even along with it. And I'm not pg... but I hope for you this is a sign that you are in fact pg!! Good luck testing!! :) Let us know when you do...

Hi Robin,
Thanks I just wanted to make sure that I was atleast on the right track. My day is so hectic that I can't temp but I do pay attention to CM because it is always present. I just happen to notice the consistancy is pretty much staying the same. So again Thanks and Good Luck to you too. I'm not new but not a reg poster.

Yes, yes... I remember seeing your sign on a few times :) Hope I could help a little bit... I get frustrated b/c I can't really pay attention to my CM b/c it just doesn't change like it "should". I seem to have constant sticky or lotion-like CM all the time, and I very rarely get EWCM. Ah well... good luck to you too! ;)
