CM charting confusion- please help!?

I am new to charting my CM, as this is the first month I am doing so. My husband and I are TTC. My cycles are usually long, last month was 41 days, which is unusual. I did notice EWCM 12 days before my period last month, which is obviously when I ovulated. This month I noticed I was very wet, almost like water, for a few days. This was about 2 1/2 weeks after my period. I definitely didn't have EWCM, it was just very watery for a few days. We definitely BD-ed at that time. I really didn't think I ovulated then, but then my CM went to creamy for a few days and now I feel very dry. If I try to get a cm sample now (tmi, sorry!), it's slightly creamy inside, but dry on the outside. Does it sound like a already ovulated, even without the EWCM? If it was just watery, does that still mean I could have gotten pregnant? It's way too early for a pregnancy test at this point, but I was just wondering what your opinions were. Like I said, I'm totally new to this and this is the first month we are actively TTC for #2. I just turned 30, and conceived after two cycles when I was 26. I hope it's easy this time around.

    It is always possible that you can get pregnant while you have unprotected sex.

    BUT checking your CM is not the most accurate way to find out if and when you ovulated. There are cycles where you will NOT ovulate and cycles where you thought you ovulated so you didn't BD later on in the cycle.

    My suggestion to you is your cycle seems to be rather crazy, and if you didn't see EWCM this month, to try to use OPK's or temping the next month. (Temping will be the best way, because even OPK's can lie)

    The order your CM should go is dry -> sticky -> creamy/milky -> so stretchy you can stretch it with your fingers! The longer you can stretch it, the more fertile you are. Your CM will also go back to milky then sticky then dry again after ovulation, so you having CM afterward is normal.

    I will say though, my 14th cycle TTC I had a temp increase which said I O'd, but I had NO ewcm and I always have EWCM but I ended up getting PG. You just never know :P

    Your bust is abnormal sounding. commonly it may be like 34C-23-34.5 from the sound of it. i do no longer know the way you're a 34//32C... o 3o once you're best bust length is a 34, you will purchase a medium. inclusive of your waist, extra advantageous than probable a small. in case you do no longer techniques a cushty in good condition on your chest you ought to purchase a small. Your build is like mine, sort of. i'm a 34D-23-35, yet i'm 5'7" & one 0 five lbs. I commonly purchase smalls or extra-smalls. all of them in good condition me effective without using up & making me seem gross. :]
