???'s Post m/c

Hi ladies,

I have some questions about what the heck my body is doing now. I'm so glad I have this site because I feel like I'm bothering my midwife w/ all my questions. Anyways, this monday will have been 4 weeks since my m/c, last monday my b/w showed hcg at 0 so it is all over. I have been charting and using my CPFM (just to see if I O) and so far nothing on either. However 2 days ago I started to get crampy and have tons of ewcm. This is going to be WAY tmi, but the ewcm is in big yellow globs, it almost has the texture of rubber cement!?! Is this a sign of AF coming or just another crappy side effect of a m/c? Also, my cpfm sticks show no LH and low estrogen. Now the LH part I understand, but w/ all this ewcm shouldn't the estrogen be high???? I'm so confused.

I understand we are not medical professionals on this site, but most of the time I value the opinions/advise I get from this site more than what I get from doctors. I guess it's because the doctors aren't in my same shoes

!
Thank you all so much,
Carmen

I've had three m/c's and I've never experienced what you are experiencing. I don't mean to be gross but does it have any kind of odor? If it does, I would call your midwife right away as that could be a sign of infection. If it doesn't, I would still give your midwife a call but it's probably okay to wait until regular business hours. I hope it clears up soon and I'm sorry to hear about your m/c.

Hi Carmen.

Sounds like you and I will be 'celebrating a very sad birthday tomorrow...my babies would be a month old tomorrow too after my m/c (well technically now i guess their calling it a still birth...anyway...sorry to hear about your loss...there's just no other words...

anyway...about 2 weeks exactly after the girls i too had the same things your talking about, except i definately had the watery stuff first. Do you think you had that too or maybe missed it? From what i ve been reading i think the globby stuff is post ovulation mucus...the infertil stuff...but i think you get the fertile stuff first...watery, clear...eggwhity before the yellow stuff can come...or maybe its just hormonal surges...who knows...i guess i'm not being much help here...

i wish i knew which hormonal surge happens when in the cycle...then maybe we could figure out which makes which kind of mucus....

i think i better start this post over....it doesnt even make sense to me...sheesh

Hopefully someone else will give you the answers you're looking for...i'm sounding like a moron...

Take care

Stephanie- No, there's no odor. I had to laugh at myself, because after I read your post I had to go run & check.

Kim-I'm so sorry we have this day in common {{{{HUGS}}}}. I also had the watery stuff before the glooby stuff. By the way my cm was I was sure I would O, but my chart & CPFM showed I hadn't.

If this is an annovulary would I still get cm like this???
