Manny - Do you chart? Have you had a temp increase yet? You could have yet to OV, or that could be remnants from the sperm...I have had what looked like EWCM after BD. Also, if you have ovulated and conceived and are close to your period I think EWCM can increase a lot. Hoping that's what it is! Have you tested?

Manny - Lol, that site is very thorough, helpful, and graphic! I have wondered so many times which is which. We use pre-seed, too, so there are all kinds of fluids going on for me! I think I've been mistaking semen for EWCM after O--the first couple pics where it doesn't stretch much. The pre-seed makes is super confusing for me...it doesn't stretch quite like EWCM but the texture is very similar, so everything mixed together makes it hard to tell.
Yours does sound like EWCM, though. It's possible to get it after O--I'm sure it wouldn't hurt. The OPK tells you when you're about to ovulate, so if you didn't use OPK before EWCM it's possible you just missed the window where you would have gotten a + but sounds like you hit ovulation just at the right time. The fact that it's dried up some today probably means you O-ed in the last day or two. Do you usually O at that point in your cycle? Were you getting EWCM earlier, too? If you got the EWCM a week or two ago and then got it again maybe you're preg. I'm curious to know how it unfolds
taurusmom - good luck for Monday! FX for you! It will only be 10 dpo for me, but I'm going to give it a shot anyway.
Well, this morning I started to have very light, very mild dull cramping every now and then...this is almost always a sign for me that AF is coming in a few days. I guess I'm not out yet! But not getting my hopes up too high, either. So frustrating--as soon as I get those first little twinges of cramp I start feeling down, like it will just never happen. I am at 8dpo, so need to be patient. AF due in 5-7 days still, probably not testing again until Mon or Tues--depending on what my temps do I may not need to test at all!
My temps have plateaued--97.7 for 3 days now--does this happen to anyone? I was hoping to see either a spike or a dip, lol, not steady temps...again, I guess I'm not out yet! My breasts also got HUGE today and are really painful. They have been tender since O, but they are painful now, which also usually indicates AF. Grr trying to stay positive!
Did any of you ladies who have conceived before have AF symptoms on the cycle you got your BFP?? I know they are similar, but I just want to hear that it's possible!
