Good Afternoon My Ladies!! I hope you are all having a wonderful start to your weekends.

So I wake up and temp and all that jibber jabber. I go back to sleep because it's Saturday and DH had our new Meditative Ocean CD playing and that made it really easy to just close my eyes and drift right back off to sleep.

So once I finally got my lazy bones out of bed, I go to do my morning ritual of peeing, checking my CP & CM. I have to say that my cervix did drop for 2 days after I initially noticed it being a bit higher and softer than I expected. Today it's about medium height, which is pretty normal.

This may be TMI... but... well, I dunno what to tell you. LOL! So I'm swirlin' around to gather up some CM while I'm "in there" and I'm surprised. It's a bit clear and a bit white and a bit stretchy. DH walked into the bathroom as I was separating my two fingers and noticing the stretch and he said "That looks like you've got Egg White." I said "I know... but it's a bit early for that, isn't it?"

I haven't done a single OPK and now I'm wondering if I should. I'd be surprised to be getting ready to O so early. We plan on DTD just to make sure we don't miss anything. But on a side note... I am THRILLED to see EWCM when I haven't even begun my Robitussin regimen for the month yet!

Hey Nikki

Well, firstly, although I've been stalking here on and off I haven't yet had the opportunity to congratulate you on your co-host status! You seem to be doing a great job!

Secondly, considering your O on cd13 last month I wouldn't be surprised at all if this is your body beginning to gear up now So long as you start BD'ing when you see the beginnings of EWCM you're not gonna miss your eggy. Your LPs seems to be consistantly improved on what they were too - it's all looking really positive for you Hun!

I usually have one good patch of ewcm right after AF ends. Sometimes I ovulate early sometimes I don't. But I think it is a good sign either way.

And I am glad you mentioned the Robitussin because I totally forgot about using it this cycle. I bought a bottle this month.

Ok, I'm back from running errands with DH.

Amanda - Thanks so much for the Congrats!! You are too kind. I was kinda thinking the same thing about my LP's. As much as I was totally crushed to not get a BFP last month, especially with my temps, I was really glad to see my first EVER 14 day LP.

As for the CM... it seems to have switched over to more creamy now. I'm wondering, should I change my CM on FF from EW to creamy or should I leave it as EW?

I'm pretty sure I've heard Patty say that FF should reflect the most fertile signs you've seen that day, even if they change throughout the day. I just want to make sure that's right.

Yay for picking up Robitussin Patty!! I swear I didn't see any EWCM in April or May... only Watery. Then in June I started the Robitussin and sure enough... I got some! I hope it works for you too!!

YAY!!!! My order of PreSeed came!!! WOO HOO!!!!

Yep, I would mark it is EWCM. This is how I have always done it and FF says the same. I am really hoping you get to catch an early egg this cycle!

I am hoping the Robitussing helps me. I got this crazy idea that it might lube up my fallopian tube too and make it work right. I figure it can't hurt. LOL.

Saw more EW this morning when I did my check. I'm curious to see if it goes away during the day like it did yesterday.
