TMI alert - opk and ewcm ?

I've woken up to lots of ewcm the past two mornings (normal for these CDs) but no Chat Icon on my OPK.

Anyone know any idea of whats going on? Am I not Oing? or is my OPK defective?

I'm in the same boat. I think EWCM comes 2-3 days before ovulation. I'm supposed to "O" on sunday so I'm guessing I will get a smiley today or tomorrow. When are you testing with your OPK?

I'm testing with FMU; it was "strongly suggested" that I test at that time in the instructions. As per My Monthly Cycles, I'm supposed to O Sunday, but that's CD 13 for me... and EWCM is vanishing at that point. (I have a 26-day cycle).

It's completely normal to get a few days of EWCM before you O. I would keep testing with the OPK and see if you get a + soon. But in the meantime, whenever you see EWCM it means you're fertile so you should BD.

If you don't get a +, that doesn't mean you didn't O. It's possible you missed the surge (short surge that happens after you've tested for the day and is gone by the time you test the next day).

Good luck!Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

EWCM usually precedes ovulation by about 2-3 days so you should probably see a positive on your OPK soon!

i would go by the CM and My Monthly cycles - going by your symptoms and your cycle that seems accurate to me, or close to it. i O on CD 12 or 13 usually, i have 25 day cycles.

as far as the FMU - i think it's different when you are using the digitals. if you are going to O on Sunday you will hopefully see a surge tomorrow Chat Icon
