You can always take plan B, but there's only a small window to use that.
Most ppl say there not ready for a baby...then the baby comes & bam parental instinct kicks in but if he's saying no I wouldn't try & have a baby with him.
I know ur not asking advice on that tho just thought i'd let you know that u can take plan b or might not be preggo at all
Some ppl have to try million times to get preggo some just once
Anyway good luck with whatever u decide

There can be many kinds of discharge. Some is white, clear and sticky, others is basically water (watery discharge), it can be cloudy and like lotion, or it can be EWCM. This is yellowish clear and has the exact same consistency of egg whites. You can look images of it up on Google. It helped me a lot, although I already had an idea of what I was looking for.

EWCM is not watery, it's clear and stretchy. Watery discharge is in a category all itself. Sperm stays in because as soon as a male ejaculates into you it swims upwards and into the cervix hunting for the egg. It doesn't just hang out and then get flushed out of your body.

However, you and him both need to think a lot about if you want a baby. Deciding after sex to use protection is a little backwards.

hi hun the ewcm comes a few days b4 the ovulation its a sign ovulation is iminant it can be sticky or watery (i think)or watery after ovulation has occurred but either way if you had sex last night theres a chance you could become pregnant. but can i ask if he doesnt want any babies just yet why are you and most of all him not preventing it as getting pregnant "can "happen anytime of the month really good luck xx
