Anyone had positive OPK two days AFTER their ewcm peak?

[PoppyJ1]

Hi,

I had very confusing signals this month from cervical mucus and Clearblue OPKs.

DP and I had sex on Monday morning, got egg white cm that evening and much more of it on Wednesday. Thursday I had sharp O pains and cm was creamy white indicating O had already taken place. Then I got solid smiley (positive OPK) on Friday, indicating I would O on Saturday, by which time I'd had three days of post-fertile CM! DP went away on business Tuesday morning so no sex since the Monday.

Anyone had this before or have a view on which is more indicative of ovulation timing, CM or OPK?

Bump? 😳

I tend to get lots of ewcm couple of days before a peak test and only a small amount on my actual peak day. It's very confusing!
I also tend to see ewcm round about the time my period is due also.

Thanks so much for your reply! So confusing! I guess I will have to wait; I'm now either 7-8 dpo or 4 dpo and mentally noted every twinge. I do feel a bit like the way I did before BFPs in my previous pregnancies (both ended in MCs) in terms of being emotional, not wanting to exercise and a bit twingy. Fingers crossed!

Sorry to hear you have suffered mcs. I've been ttc for over 2 years now and managed to concieve January but mc at 8 weeks. It's truly a heartbreaking thing to go through.
I'm currently waiting on IUI starting sometime in July/august. Have unexplained infertility.
It's hard not to symptom spot isn't it?
I'm due af on Monday and only thing I have felt is slight sharp pains on right side but other than that nada! Very best of luck to you.

Sorry to hear about your MCs too, Rainbow. It really is heartbreaking. I read about how it's often described as "loss of innocence" the realisation that something so awful can happen. For weeks I felt like the lights had gone out on me and I was standing behind a glass wall. But we bounce back and learn to hope again. Statistically we are likely to get there in the end.

Two years; what a devastating roller coaster for you. Wishing you baby dust and a sticky pregnancy next time.

I also have some side pain which is not like ovulation pains or AF! We could be on to something here!x

Yes you are right we do bounce back. Nothing else for it I suppose.

I'm not thinking too much into the pains, swore this cycle I wouldn't over analyse. Ive been keeping myself busy and if af shows then so be it.

Hoping we get our bfps soon 😊
