Watery discharge - ovulation?

This is not specifically BF related, but I'm wondering if exclusive BF is causing me to have weird ovulation symptoms. My baby is 4 months old and I haven't had a period yet. But for the past 3 days, I've had a lot (and I mean a lot -- like it soaks my underwear) of very thin, watery, clear, odorless discharge. Not sticky, no itching or burning or any other symptoms. What in the world? Could this be my first PP ovulation? Anyone else experienced something like this?

    My DS is almost 4 months old and I had some EWCM today. I just started cutting back MOTN pumpings to just one. My RE said that some women start their cycles again around 4 months, even with EBF. Not sure if it's a real cycle or just a sign that things are starting up again.

    I could have written this post exactly, and have actually been lurking this board to see if anything similar was happening to anybody else. My baby is almost 11 mo old and still no period. I have been having the watery discharge now for probably 2-3 months. I literally run to the bathroom multiple times a day thinking I have started my period but it's only a very clear very watery discharge. I am on the mini pill so I don't think it's ovulation. I think it's just signs my body is gearing up to start my cycle again.

    That's exactly what's happening to me! I go to pee KNOWING that I've started my period, but nope.
