My husband and I are trying to conceive, my last period was on Jan 8th and my cycles are about 32-35 days...we had sex on Jan. 20th, 25th and 27th and plan to today (the 29th), the last 2 days i have noticed an increase of vaginal discharge (clear egg-white like) mostly when i go to the bathroom, it comes out long, and thick string like... but also periodically throughout the day it comes out a little (too much info, i know, sorry). I know im probably around the time of ovulation (which is why we have been trying more now) but im wondering if this could be a sign of me being pregnant?? I have also had a lower abdominal feeling that I never had before (which could be anxiety but could maybe be from everything going on in my uterus)?? Its to early for me to test, i just want to know if anyone else had this before and if you ended up being pregnant or what, because we really want a baby and want more than anything to be pregnant.

Based on your cycle lengths, I doubt you are pregnant already. At least - not pregnant enough to be discharging leukorrhea, which is what the discharge is called during pregnancy. Cervical mucus typical of ovulation looks different than leukorrhea. Cervical mucus during ovulation is thick, stretchy, like egg whites. Leukorrhea is cloudy.
From what you describe, you are probably ovulating. That would explain the discharge and possibly the abdominal feeling, which could be the egg moving down your fallopian tube. Check the position of your cervix by inserting a finger into your vagina (do this while sitting on the toilet or squatting). Can you feel the bump of the cervix? Is it really far back, hard to touch? If it is far back, you are likely ovulating. If you can easily touch it, you probably aren't ovulating.
You should also try charting your BBT (Basal Body Temperature) daily to see where ovulation is happening. Most women experience a sharp rise in temperature just after ovulation. Take your temp in the morning at the same time before you get out of bed. If you see a sharp rise from normal (up to 0.5 degrees) you have possibly just ovulated.
The cycle I conceived - I noted tons of cervical mucus, like even more than usual. So you are probably doing right to have sex today. I am now 26 weeks pregnant and have that cloudy leukorrhea. I guess the discharges never end. :)
Just be patient in your quest to conceive. Eat healthily, exercise. Take a pre-natal and a Zinc supplement if you think you are having trouble ovulating. Chart the things I mentioned and then have sex every other day when you start to notice an increase in cervical mucus. Best of luck!

Egg-white cervical mucus is a sign that you are ovulating. The last day of this is your ovulation day. After that, you can't get pregnant. Sometimes people get some cervical mucus right before their period, too. That's usually more sticky and not egg-white consistency.
It could be that you have a late ovulation and a short luteal phase. If your luteal phase is too short, you will have problems getting pregnant. You can try taking B-complex vitamins to lengthen your luteal phase.

I would say you are probably ovulating or ovulated. The cervical mucus you are seeing means your around ovulation. have sex definatly for today and for tomrow just incase. Also if you said you noticed some sort of abdominal thing. I myslef feel a light cramping on one side of my abdomin when I ovulate if thats the same sort of feeling and onesided then chances are the same is happening to you. The side that you fell the pain on is the side you are ovulating from.
Good Luck!

look sweety, I understand how frustrated his must be since there are many mothers out there who just look at a man and get pregnant. (U know?) A lot of what you are feeling is all in your head. You are so desperate to have a baby therefore...... your brain is playing games on your body tricking it to believe you are (possibly) pregnant. The feeling in your tummy could be nothing, or it could be everything you so want in life. All I am saying is try not to get so fixated on a baby.
When was the last time you and your husband had sex because you two wanted to...... not because it was scientifically correct? Just let nature run its course. If you were meant to have a baby, you will get pregnant.... if not there is always adoption.
Good Luck and GOD Bless!

It sounds like you are ovulating. The egg-white stuff is produced around ovulation to help facilitate getting the sperm to the egg. It is a fluid that is very sperm friendly and helps them get where they need to be! Take advantage of it and have sex just like you are planning and with any luck you will have a pos. pregnancy test in a few weeks! Good luck!

I even have an outstanding husband and six brothers. all of them quicker or later positioned their acquaintances until eventually now their female. until eventually they met the splendid one. Then the female have been given/gets secure. If this isn't any longer the splendid female or their isn't any dedication maximum adult adult males will positioned their acquaintances first.
