Cervical Mucus

So I think I have officially became obsessed with pinpointing ovulation. I have only been monitoring my cervical mucus when we started TTC in July. Its crazy how my whole adult life I always thought cervical mucus was just gross & wish I didn't have it, now its like liquid gold to me. However, I have gotten pregnant before (ectopic) so I know I ovulate, but I hardly, if never have EWCM. Mostly mine is just watery. I feel like with 3 months now without getting pregnant that this may be an issue. Has another other women out there who had successful pregnancies lack EWCM?

I get watery cervical mucous too. I take evening primrose 3 times a day and that has helped increase my cervical mucous! Make sure you're staying hydrated, drink a lot of water!!that will increase it too.

Good luck to you.

Hi
I too didn't really pay much attention to cm until I started to ttc after a miscarriage . I was worried I wasn't producing enough so tried grapefruit juice ( that messed my cycle up ) I tried pre seed ( that gave me a funny smell) i drank lots of water ( that didn't seem to make any difference .) In the end I just stopped the ovulation sticks as I knew roughly when I ovulate and just had sex every other day during my fertile week and relaxed and let nature take its course . Remember there Is only approx 20% chance of conception in any given cycle. The month I did conceive I did notice I was a bit more "in the mood" as I had taken the pressure off , this probably did increase my cm as stress can affect hormones. Try to relax
