Cervical mucus

[Anonymous]

How many days does yours last? I used to have five days, but after my miscarriage, only two or three. Is it because I just got my period after the miscarriage? Am I thinking too much?

I tend to have it for nearly a week before ovulating. I can’t temp (I sleep hot or something so there’s not pattern at all) so I guess disappearing cervical mucus is a good way for me to tell that I’ve ovulated, but not great for timing insemination. I mostly use OPKs to time my fertile window.

I wouldn’t be surprised if a miscarriage changes your cycle a bit, but I don’t think it should have an effect on conception? I know my cervical mucus patterns changed after my first pregnancy (not a miscarriage so not identical situation, sorry) but I was able to conceive again.

Good luck and I hope you find a new normal for your cycle soon!

I’ve never had any noticeable cervical fluid. I have two kids so I’m skeptical it’s as important as people seem to think it is.
