Question about EWCM
| Thu, 08-21-2003 - 5:48pm |
I always thought I knew what EWCM was but I have a question now. (I'm going to get graphic now, sorry!)
The first two months after coming off BC, at mid cycle I would have some spotting, but then I would have extremely thick stretchy CM. I'm talking the elasticity of, say, mucus from a very bad head cold... and the amount was like that as well. It would be so thick it would take several wipes to remove it all. (sorry so gross!)
I NEVER had anything like that before. Not even while ttc my first. My CM then would be a bit runnier but still stretchy and slippery. Like a thinner EW.
Is the extremely thick stuff normal? Or was it caused by coming off of BC? Or is it just the mood my body is in as I get older?

so, that's the conclusion i came to, when it happened to me~
HTH!

And the plug analogy was exactly what crossed my mind, but since my first was a scheduled c-section (breech) I didn't go into labor and therefore never saw a plug.
Thanks

I don't have alot of info, but I wanted to let you know that I experienced the same thing this month. I went off BCP in early July, and this is what seems like my first real cycle. On CD 17, I couldn't believe how much EWCM I had. I thought that it might be a really good sign, but I have no real reason for that. I am 6 DPO now, and not really having any PG symptoms. I know it's still to early to tell, but some symptoms would be nice.
Good luck!!!! Positive vibes heading your way!

Good luck to us all!
