Have I ovulated?! (cervical mucus)

Seem to have a duff bach of opks which don't even bring up a control line so going by CM.

Usually 33 day cycle
Thursday (cd19) ++++ creamy stretchy ewcm
Yesterday (cd20) ++ creamy/watery less stretchy ewcm and sudden left shooting pelvic pain - DTD
Today (cd21) sore boobs and very watery clear cervical mucus (almost a rush in my Knickers Blush)

I'm new to cm tracking, is it most likely I ov'ed yesterday? Neither of us are in the mood for DTD today but if its likely an important day I will!

Your most fertile CM is clear, slippery and stretchy or watery. It's impossible to tell exactly when you'll ovulate just based on CM (I sometimes get EWCM after ovulation). However it looks like yesterday you had the most fertile CM, so ovulation is very close if it hasn't happened already. Ovulation pain can happen before or after ovulation, so again it doesn't able you to pin point it exactly but you'll know it's happened over a 2/3 day window. If you want to know exactly when you ovulate, you'll need to use OPK and BBT monitoring. That's a shame the batch of OPK you have haven't worked but CM will give you a guide.

I agree with the PP. It's really difficult to track CM unless you already know what yours does based on confirmed ovulation in previous cycles.

You should be covered if ovulation is today but DTD today would potentially increase your chances regardless of whether ovulation was yesterday or today as eggs are viable for up to 24 hours. If you feel up to it you could always keep going with DTD every other day for the next week just to be sure. Good luck!
