anyone got a bfp with lack of EWCM when ovulated??

[Charliemarina]

ok right soooo weird but this cycle i think i have oved without much ewcm, now i had some late at night the day of ov but that was it for the whole fertile period, iv had pos opk temp drop and now slowly rising, this is odd and im normally flooded with CM around the fertile period.

there was one day when OH kinda went straight in and it was already very wet without him turning me on i think this may have been fertile cm also so i know i had a very small amount, so my question is has anyone got preg on a cycle that is lacking alot of EWCM?? iv never considered using pre-seed as im always very "fertile" when it comes to cm around ov time but if this cycle is not successful im defo going to grab some incase i find i have this again then the pre-seed can come in , so girls any help??? also is there any foods or drinks they may help produce more CM?? xxx

Hi found this thought it might be useful.
There are some very basic things that you can do to create more fertile cervical mucus. The first is to drink more water and decrease or do away with the caffeine in your diet. If you take antihistamines you will want to stop taking them or reduce the amount that you take because these not only dry up the sinuses, they also dry up your cervical mucus! Increasing your fluid intake and doing away with caffeine and antihistamines will likely make your cervical mucus be much more fertile so that you have a better chance of becoming pregnant.

If increased fluids, a reduction in caffeine, and limiting or doing away with your antihistamines doesnt seem to provide an improvement in the fertile quality of your cervical mucus you may want to try Evening Primrose Oil. Evening Primrose Oil has been used for generations to help increase cervical mucus and many women swear that it is the only reason that they were able to get pregnant. The oil has essential fatty acids among other properties that aide the body in producing more high quality cervical mucus. You can take 1500mg to 3000mg daily, but this should only be taken from menstruation until ovulation as it is known to cause uterine contractions which could prevent a fertilized egg from implanting properly.

Along with Evening Primrose Oil you may want to take flax seed oil. This works in much the same way as Evening Primrose as it delivers essential fatty acids. In fact, you can pick up with Flax seed where you leave off with Evening Primrose Oil during your cycle. The two often make a good combination and will help produce all of the cervical mucus you need to aide in conception.

Many women swear that grapefruit juice helps to increase the quality of cervical mucus, though there is not a whole lot of data to back these claims up. However, there are literally thousands of women that swear by grapefruit juice, so its worth a try if you are willing. If nothing else, grapefruit juice will get more fluids in you, which will help product more fertile mucus!

hope it help good luck

i got a positive on an ovulation test today and my cm is more like water but theres loads of it.xxx

I never had a lot of cm - and I drink tons of water, stopped all caffiene months before my bfp, and dont take any meds. Instead of taking the epo, etc. I used preseed.
The epo scared me a little with the whole "can cause contractions" thing - so didnt want to try that. But thats just me! Good luck with getting your bfp's girls - any which way they come!

I never had much EWCM -- was lucky to see it once, in a small amount, on ovulation day. I did have plenty of watery though.

EPO (evening primrose oil) is often used to increase EWCM. I was going to start it my next cycle, but then got my bfp. The above is right though -- STOP it after you ovulate!! Start it again at AF.

Also, certain kinds of robitussin cough syrup is supposed to help. It is based on one of the ingredients, but I don't know which one or which kind...? Someone else may know or you can google it.

I think I have heard pineapple juice is supposed to help, too. But I don't know if it is true or not.

Many ladies (even those that get EWCM) SWEAR by preseed! I have known several ladies that tried for months and got their bfp within one or two months of using it. The cycle I got my bfp I used a TTC lube (not preseed, but similar). It was the only thing I did differently that month!

preseed helps keep the sperm alive too so worth using despite cm from what i read x

I haven't had any ewcm for years after I started taking antihistamines daily years ago. I have no choice, I suffer from a severe dust allergiy and wouldn't fonction without it. I have what seems to be good watery mc though. I have been taking epo for many months before ttc too, because it is supposed to help with pmt and skin. I fell pg the first cycle after stopping the pill. I had used preseed. Unfortunately, I miscarried, but I intend to do the same when I start ttc again, epo, and preseed. Hope I can fall pg quickly again. baby dust to you too.

 

[akgrown]

Yes, I had no EWCM and even drinking grapefruit juice to increase CM and just got my BFP. Lots of to you!
