CM question... Im confused!

Im on cd13 and today my CM was really really ewcm! I've never had that much, it also was sticky and cream color! But I've yet to get a positive OPK. So what does that mean? When you get CM like I have, how far would ovulation occur?

Im going to keep testing with the OPK's, I have PCOS. So maybe I'll ovulate alittle later.

Do you think the CM I have is a good sign my body is doing what it should?

You just about have to have a Ph.d to figure this crap out! lol

When I was on injectibles, my CM really acted like it was supposed to, and was EWCM much more than on Clomid. The CM started changing a few days before ovulation on the Clomid, and a few days before the follies were mature enough with the shots. Having EWCM is definitely a good sign, and I wonder if the lack of such thick CM on the Clomid and the presence of it with the injectibles may be why I didn't get pregnant on the CLomid? After ovulation, the CM gradually thinned over a few days. The month that I got pregnant, it didn't thin down much, and stuck around longer. Good luck, and I would keep watching those OPKs closely in the next few days.

I feel really excited about this. Im doing a totally natural cycle. I have PCOS and my periods are about every 45 to 60 days.

I've been taking progesterone cream , soy islavens (sp) and red clover. Also drinking 1 to 2 cups of fertility tea.

I've been praying that I get pregnant this cycle... Im trying to think positive and not call the RE for an appt for next cycle. Im trying to have faith!

Hey Jrene, EWCM is a pretty darn good indication that you're fertile so I'd get to BDing! OPKs can be inaccurate depending on the time of day you take it, how long your LH surge lasts, and how much water you've had that day. If you've got the EWCM, it's very likely that you're getting ready to ovulate. Good luck!
