After taking a break from CrMS charting for nearly 2 months, I feel pretty much confused & dumb after I have resumed charting! I need to chart so that I can send it to PPVI.
I have had brown mucus for many days this cycle including days when I had fertile mucus.
It's just a tiny bit of brown mucus (no bleeding) something like 6B X1.
Coming to the questions
My awesome FCP replied and here are the answers:
1. You need to use a Red Stamp for every day of Brown Bleeding/Mucus. The first scenario will be 6B x1.
2. For fertile days with brown mucus, use red stamp and chart the fertile most sign and don't forget a B. So for the above scenario, it will be B 10KL x3.

Coming to the questions
- Do I need to use a red stamp for all days I see brown mucus even if there is no bleeding/spotting? And since there is no bleeding, do I chart it as VL 6B X1 or only 6B X1?
- What do I do for the Fertile days where I saw brown mucus? Eg: 10KL X3 + 6B X1 on a single day. How do I chart? Do I use a red or baby stamp?

Not sure about question 1 (can you contact your charting instructor?) For question 2, you chart only the most fertile mucus of the day, so the 10kl x 3.
ReplyDeleteI would use a red stamp b/c any unusual signs of bleeding (brown bleeding included) get a count of 3. I would chart it as VLB in addition to your mucus observations b/c on VL days you are supposed to note if you have any mucus. So for 1 I would chart it as VLB 6 (C or K)x1. For 2 I would chart VLB 10KLx3. Make sure if there's a break inbetween brown bleeding days that you put either a green or white baby sticker. I hope that helps you!
