Worried I have Ov'ed

I'm really worried I haven't ovulated this month. I thought I had a positive OPK last Wednesday night and we've been BDing at least every two days, if not every day, since. But I've had barely any EWCM this month, cervical position didn't get that high and my BBT was still right down at its lowest this morning. I hope I'm imagining it, but what do I need to know about cycles where you don't ovulate? Anyone else in the same boat?
Thanks,
HC

If your temp is still low you probably haven’t but that doesn’t mean you won’t. What cycle day are you on, and when do you usually ovulate?

Since sorting out my cycles after years of not ovulating I’ve only had one cycle that I think was properly anovulatory (rather than just super late) - with that one I never had a temp rise, and eventually had a couple of days of spotting. I ovulated a couple of weeks after and that and things went back to normal.

More usually for me my body seems to gear up for ovulation and then it doesn’t happen for whatever reason - but it seems to try again a few days later. Makes it a bit tricky to predict and DH is totally exhausted by CD25, but better late than never! I find tracking temp the easiest way to be sure.

Fingers crossed for you.

Thanks @ronniemipperton. This is only our third month charting, but six months since we stopped using protection. I normally seem to ovulate between day 16 and day 19, with the thermal shift showing up the next day. I'm now on day 21, and no hint of a shift. We'll keep at it a few more days and see if I get any evidence of ov'ing. Have a phone call appt with GP anyway next Monday morning to discuss blood results, so that's good.

Thanks for your help and support, it's appreciated!

I feel now like (TMI, sorry) my cervical position is rising again and more EWCM... A second go at ovulation on cd21?!

(Obv, title of this thread is wrong... It should say 'haven't'!)
