TMI Question...maybe

jessicasue87

Okay, so I have done some reading and have a little question for you that track your CM.

What I have read says that when you use the restroom and wipe, you can track your CM that way. Well the question is do you/should you have CM all day long? Because I normally only observe this substance in the morning...is that normal?

I wipe before I pee (so nothing gets washed away).  It depends on where I am in my cycle, how much/often I can detect CM.

Fertility Friend   Lesson #6 
How to Observe, Chart, and Record Your Cervical Fluid

 "Always record your most fertile type of cervical fluid, even if you noticed more than one type of cervical fluid in a given day or even if it is scant. This is so you will not miss a potentially fertile day and so that you have a consistent way of keeping track of your cervical fluid from cycle to cycle."

If you are using FF  go over Lessons 5 & 6 and they will talk about this!  Good Luck!

I check with my fingers before I pee...if I don't find anything, I check internally, but I don't dig around for it.

PS: This question was not TMI.

I usually check right before each time I pee if it's around O time so I'm sure to detect any signs of possible O...otherwise I check only a couple times a day to ensure I document correctly. HTH. Good luck!!

And I agree with Mel...CM on a board full of women TTC is totally not TMI.
