Trying to Get Pregnant

Without charting, can you know when you ovulate?

Does your body ever feel different? Do you act differently? Etc....

I had EWCM for over a week, then yesterday it stopped and was just watery. I was SOOO emotional and crying at the drop of a hat. I pretty much havn't had much of a libido for a looong time, but yesterday I was almost beside myself needing it. I have a rediculously hard time achieving an orgasm (like a couple times a year) but last night I had 2! (It was awesome.. angels were singing. lol)

ANYWAY... The timing is right if I have a normal cycle since yesterday would have been day 17.

Do you notice anything different around time of ovulation?.. Maybe I'm just hoping and psyching myself out.

    I was the same way (re: sex) when both my girls were conceived.

    Watery CM can be just as fertile as EWCM.

    Also, without temping, you can't know for sure if you ovulated. Sometimes you'll "gear up" to O (meaning all the pre-O signs, like EWCM, +OPK, etc. happen), and then they stop. You may think you O'd, but if you were temping you might see that your temperature didn't have a thermal shift -- meaning that you didn't O. If you weren't temping you would have assumed you had, then BD'd at the wrong time, and then thought you were KU when your period was "late" (when it was actually "late" because of delayed O).

    Technically, no. You need a temp shift to confirm it.

    However, plenty of ladies with consistent cycles and/or signs could probably watch their signs and have a pretty good idea. However, it's always possible that your body could gear up and then stop, making you think you O'd when you didn't.

    IT'S A GIRL

    I normally experience cramping in either side of the location of my ovaries and light cramping in my vaginal area and legs. My cycles are very regular, however I can't say that I can pinpoint the day of ovulation as these symptoms seem to last for 3-4 days. I purchased a OPK just to be sure and if we haven't conceived this month I will definitely be making a conscientious effort to chart my temperature. 

    Hope this helps.
