I am so confused

FF says I was ovulating on the 22nd. I never got a surge with the OPK but maybe that was because I didn't wait 4 hours to pee before using it, only about 2-3 (took it about 6:00pm). I didn't get my normal EWCM like I usually do. I have had a very stressful week b/c of work so that could be the reason. DH and I BD'd about 5 times this past week since I was supposed to be ovulating even though I didn't get a surge. The past couple of days and just now I had a little tiny bit of CM when I wiped (sorry for TMI). I have had gas like pains in my lower abdomin all day too. Could I just be ovulating now on CD21? I am normally on a 30 day cycle. What is going on with my body???????

TRy to relax & wait it out. If you fixate on it, the time will pass really slow

Sorry, I'm no help

Re: I am so confused

Just remember that FF should be used as a guide. It predicts what *should* be your fertile days and shouldn't be taken as the first and only word. Is it possible you are really O'ing later than what FF says? My cycle right now is all over the place, or rather really doesn't exist at the moment, I know I'm not O'ing when FF says I am. Unfortunately though, I'm not O'ing at all.

Re: I am so confused

For the past year that I have been off BCP I have had a 30 day cycle. This is the first month that I have not had EWCM that I can remember. I tried the OPK and that told me I didn't O yet. It just seems weird to me. Can stress really throw you off that much?
