I had the same thing last month. It looked exactly like snot and I'd never had it before either! I thought it might have been a pg sign but AF arrived a couple of days later? :fingerscrossed: it's a good sign for you though!

I had that as well a couple of weeks ago and asked a similar question about it. Evidently a lot of ladies get it in the 2ww and doesnt necessarily mean anything. Hoping it means something for you tho! :)

Hey gals,

I suddenly got this mucus today and freaked out! Then I remembered this thread...

I looked it up on the web and found this report (below) ...I feel better. sounds like it's 'L' type mucus and is often present anytime from after AF to after O because apparently it is present in fertile mucus...?

Following menstruation, cervical mucus is composed of dense cellular matter that forms an impenetrable barrier (typeG). As the cycle progresses under the influence of increasing estrogen, there is a predominance of characteristically lumpy opaque mucus (type L). A few days before ovulation, the characteristically thin slippery crystal clear stretchy mucus is produced (type S). Fertile mucus is composed of a combination of L-type and S-type mucus. Estrogen casuses changes to take place in the muscle and connective tissue of the cervix. As estrogen levels rise during the pre-ovulatory phase, the cervix softens and the cervical os opens. A woman can be aware of these changes by gently palpating the cervix with her finger tip. These signs and symptoms which reflect accurately the rise and fall of the hormones estrogen and progesterone are the basis of fertility awareness on which natural methods of family planning are based.

Cheers,
Bonnie

I am sure it is infertile CM. I got it last month a week before AF. i am sure its infertile as sperm cannot get through clumpy CM.
