I have a question....

.....and I hope it makes sense!

We have been TTC for awhile now but it is my 1st month of properly charting on Fertility Friend.

I am now on CD17 and I still haven't seen a temperature rise yet. I don't know if that is normal or not.

Anyway, I was checking my CM this morning and it was tinged with blood. I also (and it might be TMI) found dried blood on my underwear. I checked again a few hours later and it was the same. It has now gone back to clear again and I think it looks like EWCM but I could be wrong because I am new to all this.

My question is, is this normal? I have never noticed anything like this before but then again, I have never been paying this much attention.

Yes, pink tinge is normal, at time of ovulation, so you should see a temperature rise in the next 48 hours. Have you tried ovulation prediction tests? And if you are ovulating should you be on the internet..? Go get busy!

:iagree: with singlepregnantchick :yes: What you are experiencing could be a little bit of ovulation spotting which is a great sign.

And yep it is normal to get to day 17 without a temperature rise. You may just ovulate a little later than what is considered average. I ovulate around day 30 most cycles.

Yes I agree with the others as well!!

It could just be ovulation!! I don't bleed but I have cramps and lots of ewcm...


On the otherhand...How long have you been ttc? If its over twelve months I would be looking into seeing a fertility specialist to get the ball rolling. Every month is sooo precious and they just seem to slip through your fingers.

Good luck I hope you get your :bfp:xxx

Thanks for that everyone. It put my mind at ease that it is normal.

This morning, I finally got my temperature rise, so singlepregnantchick, you were right about the 48hrs.

What would I do without the all-knowing Bubhubbers!

We have now been TTC for 8 months. I suffered from a missed miscarriage back in October. How soon can you go see a FS? Can I go before the 12 months are up? All this stuff is driving me crazy.....
