I'm trying to get pregnant and my husband and I have been having unprotected sex since the 8th day of my cycle, though not every day. We last had sex on the 15th day, which was a Saturday. Today I've noticed a clear, sticky discharge and I'm really confused. Does this mean there's still a chance I could conceive this month, or does it mean I've already ovulated and missed the window? I'm 31 and really anxious to conceive, can you help me understand what's going on?

A woman gets pregnant around the days when ovulation occurs. The average time of ovulation is the 14th day of an average length (28 day) menstrual cycle. Ovulation time vary for each individual, and can occur from 12th to 19th day of the cycle . Sperm can live up to 3 to 5 days in a womans reproductive tract, so it is possible to become pregnant if unprotected sex occurs 5 days before ovulation. The life span of the typical egg is relatively short, only around 24 hours. If fertilization does not occur within that time frame, the egg will die

I'm 6 weeks pregnant and my blood report shows something called normocytic normochromic anemia. I'm really worried and wondering if this could be a problem. I've also attached my scan report, and I'm curious if there's any link between the two reports or if theres something I should be concerned about. Can you please guide me on what steps I should take next?

I've got my beta hCG value at 149,449 during 6 weeks and 6 days, and my early scan at 4 weeks and 3 days showed a gestational sac and yolk sac. The doctor said to come back on the 20th for a heartbeat check. I'm worried if my hCG level is too highcould that be a problem? Any advice?
