EWCM after Ovulation?

in Trying to Get Pregnant

Hey all, I'm new here. Just had a question.

According to FF I ovulated 6 days ago. Had the thermal shift, temps have stayed up, it's consistent with past cycles, etc. I'm inclined to believe that's when I actually ovulated.

But this AM... crazy EWCM. I could go TMI on you but let's just say it's significantly more rubbery and stretchy than right when I was ovulating...

So... I'm confused.

Anyone have experience with EWCM after ovulation? What did you do?

    No such thing as TMI on this board :)  (Well, maybe snatchbubble's PIP).

    It is possible to have EWCM after O.  Can you link your chart?  Maybe FF has your O date wrong after all.

    Hello, and welcome. Smile

    Yes, some do get fertile CM after O. Just mark it on your chart to keep track, but it does occur for sure.

    I also had a destination wedding (Virgin Islands)-- how fun!! Paradise

    Yes, I have. It's rather common.

    What did I do? I marked it in my chart and FF changed my CHs from solid to dotted.

    And AF came 2 days later, so no, I wasn't PG.

    I get EWCM after O.  You can look at my last two charts (link in siggy).  This morning I swear I had a tid bit of EWCM when I wiped and I am either 8-10 DPO.

    I had the largest amount of EWCM I had ever had on CD30 (which I think is after I O'd).

    If there's no such thing as TMI then I can tell you it was like rubber cement. :) That thick and not goopy but firm.

     Just read that it's normal to have EWCM about a week after ovulation...

     

    MEMBER QUESTION: 
    I noticed that I have some egg white cervical mucus around 7 or 8 DPO. Is this a sign that I have low progesterone? 

    DR. AMOS: 

    EWCM comes from an estrogen increase. That usually happens several days prior to ovulation. But it also happens about a week after ovulation. So seeing EWCM again at that time is not unusual. 

     

    But here's my chart anyhow.

    Yes, EWCM can appear, before, during and after O. When in doubt, have sex if you want to try to make babies.
