New at TTC! Question!!

Lindsey
I'm new at this so please bear with me but any advice would help. Sorry for the tmi. I have checked my cm everyday since my last period. Not once has it been thick and creamy. It has only been wet and clear. I have been off my period for 5 days now and it is the first cycle since off my pills on july 16th. We were trying not to spend money on ovulation kits or thermometers but we want a family so bad! We are literat doing it every night because we dont know when I'm truly ovulating. Will doing it while the egg is trying to do its thing cause a missed miscarriage? Please help or give any advice to help us out. We want to start a family so bad!!
