Hi everyone,

I am on cycle day 9 and started to have egg-white cm today. I did an internal cm check at 1:00 in the afternoon and noticed that my discharge was pinkish and had spots of fresh blood in it. Does anyone know what that could be? It wasn't like that this morning when I checked my cm. I don't know whether to brush it off or be concerned.

Day 9...Probably ovulation spotting.....this just happened to me this month...but seeing how its only 9 days after your cycle...more than likely it's ovulation spotting.....I'm no nurse/doc so don't quote me...cuz there may be some people who says it may be implantation spotting...are you on any fertility drugs? this may something to do w/ it.....well good luck to you and whatever the outcome you may desire.....take care

I am not on any fertility drugs...I am also not even ovulating yet. I juts started getting wetter cm today, so I shoul dn't be ovulating for a couple of more days. So I just don't know what it could be.

hmmm Have you recently gotten off any bcp? It could also be that you scratched yourself when checking cm. I did that once and bled a little for a few hours but it stopped and I had regular cm the next day.
By the way I am on cycle day 6 so you are just a few days ahead of me.

I would not worry unless it continues or gets worse.

Yeah, I'm not going to worry about it for now. I think it has stopped. I'm not real sure that my cm is reliable for checking when I am most fertile. It hasn't shown very consistent patterns over the last few months. So we'll see...
