Cervical mucus

Hi I've been off the pill since March and had a period middle of April then had another end of May, 39 days apart. I know when coming off the pill can make periods irregular I've been charting everything. I'm currently on day 14 of my cycle and last night I started with really bad bloating and today the same. Today I've also had really sticky cervical mucus I've also been using ovulation sticks but not had a positive yet. Does anyone think that a positive is coming in the next few days are have I missed it? Last time I got really sore boobs after ovulating and not got that yet so I'm guessing it hasn't happened yet. Only know as 2 weeks later I got my period.

i used to get a positove ovulation test 2 days after the first signs of ovulation.
I did read the best chances are simply to DTD every 2nd day.

Have you been doing the ovulation test every day? I get sticky Cm after af then it goes like cloudy egg whites for about a week towards the end of that week I get a positive opk thenback to sticky til af. Everyone is different though.

Are you tracking your temp? That can help estimate if you have ovulated

No not doing the temperature.

Yes been testing every day since Sunday but nothing yet. The sticky mucus only started today but the bloating started yesterday tea time. Aren't TTC at the minute wanting to track my cycles first.

I'll keep testing over the next few days to see if I get a positive.

If your cycles are around 39 days you might not get a positive opk until cd22/23, if your luteal phase is 14 days, maybe later if its shorter. The clear egg White cm is the most fertile. Good luck

Thanks everyone.

I've had really bad back ache and the ovulation test stick was abit darker tonight than it was this morning but not dark enough yet. Still got watery cervical mucus too.

So fingers crossed I'm starting to get into a proper cycle now as the last 2 have been all over the place.
