Hello ladies,

SORRY TMI!!!

Im getting kind of confused when it come to the cm test and i know how to do it its just i think its kinda off with me. I know i ovulated between 7/9-7/10(one of those days) and last night and since i ouvlated have been feeling some funny sensations in my lower abdomen. Last night when i was trying to sleep it was sharp pains. my nipples are sore, but not that bad and are starting to decrease. Now this morning when i went to the bathroom i saw a good amound of creamy/white cm when i wiped. when i checked to see its consistency it wasnt sticky nor strechy, but just creamy. Today is CD19 for me and i wanted to know if that was normal to see cm after ovulation b/c when i was ready online sites about cm it said that after ovualtion it should be sticky and thick or dry. I know this might also sound really gross, but i even smelled the cm and it had a really really faint smell of like vinegar or spoiled eggs(i know really gross). So what i wanted to know is:

How soon after concieving do you start to see the increase in cm?

Is it normal to see creamy white cm or anything for that matter after ovulation?

I really need some enlightment on it. Thanks

Nicole

I know with me I get a increase of cm a few days before I get my AF. And it is a little more thicker. Everyone is different. Usually I do dry up pretty much after o. Hope this helped.

Thanks for posting. Maybe i just never took notice before about the white cm, but then again is could just be vaginal discharge. i just happen to take notice this month since i had some mid-cycle bleeding(so i suspect) 2 days after i had intercourse and my af had just finished 3 days before. i've been tracking my cm this month and did notice the types during ovulation, but i wasnt sure if you can experience a creamy type after ovulation. I've been reading other pages and it did say that it was normal and you can have a white/creamy cm before & after my cycle. Thanks again.
