Hi everyone
Last cycle, I had EWCM for a longer than normal period -Day 17 until about day 20 - and didn't get AF until Day 38. I've just been told that it's not possible to have an 18 day luteal phase (it's usually 13 or 14 days), and that my little eggy must have been fertilised but didn't implant / I miscarried. I did have a little pink spotting on days 35-38, but I often get some spotting just before AF anyway. i chickened out of doing a pg test (we've been trying for a year and a 1/2. opinions please - is it possible to have an 18 day LP??? I'm now having EWCM today, which is day 10 - way early! |

Thanks BellaBabysMum
I did temp for about 8 months, but got sick of it, especially because CM seemed to give a much more distinct 'sign' plus some days I get up several hours other than other days, which doesn't help!

| Hi Catie, my LP is always around 20 days - last month I ovulated on day 22; and my cycle is around 38-40 days. |
