Does No EWCM = No ovulation?

Am on CD18 of what's normally a 28/29 day cycle. Usually I have EWCM in abundance, but no sign this month.

Last month my cycle was only 23 days, following 2 back-to-back cp's. I really thought that was just my cycle 'resetting' itself, and figured this month would be back to normal ie getting EWCM around CD13/14.

Boobs are starting to feel a bit tender as they do after ovulation but can I have ovulated if there was no EWCM? Anyone else had this?

hi monkey I was only thinking if you were ok the other day. Hope you are ok appart from the usual confusion of our bodies.
I have noticed this too and thought it must be my age more blushes I had ov pains though but my cycles are also like yours sorting themselves out, currently cd20
I really meant to drink more wine water this month but am not great at it, but think it would help lots... maybe..

ps boo did I get ya this time

Hi mermaid Am okay thanks, bit down but nothing out of the ordinary How are you doing? I do try to lurk on Emmsy's but just haven't a hope in hell of keeping up.
Funny you should mention water, it's one thing I really need to concentrate on - I can easily get through the day with only having drunk a cup of tea. Maybe that would help... Apparently jools drank loads when she got her BFP, so I might have to get strict with myself! You too so it seems
Do you use OPK's? Is so frustrating not knowing when you're ovulating isn't it. I've never had this before, and think that dh might run out of zeal pretty soon for this month!

Will try to pop along and say hi soon - have just broken up for a week so should have a bit more time on my hands.

snap snap and snap! I never keep up either and just ramble away as usual.
ok so we have to start drinking the wet stuff then girl. I am sitting here with a very big glass of water right now so go and get one too. Reckon we need to drink about 1.5 lit.a day Yes jools did drink lots and I remember this cos it ties in with other stuff I have read.
maybe as its friday we could go one water one wine one water!
I have been using the sticks from hell yes except forgot to start when I should have this month and think I missed it duh.

Urgh water... Does squash count? I'm going to get big one now. Don't you find you're up all night weeing though if you drink lots?
Excellent idea re interspersing with wine I like your thinking!
Will get dh to crack open a bottle when he gets home. He'll probably think it's his lucky night....again

Okay I shall make a pledge to somehow down 1.5l every day if you will. Deal?
