Thoughts?

So... I feel like I know what's suppose to happen, but as we all know, we're in this group cause what's suppose to happen (for one reason or another) isn't. That being said, we finished our first cycle of generic clomid CDs 5-9 w/TI and had a U/S CD 10 showing 2 follies (14 & 12). We got busy all over the time OBGYN said and I was feeling good. I was diagnosed as anovulatory so I've never really dealt with CM. All last week I felt its presence but didn't bother digging or really analyzing it since we had the U/S- but today, while using the bathroom, I noticed a good amount of what I would consider egg white CM (maybe last week was watery?). I'm trying not to be too discouraged because I'm out of town this weekend so BD's a no go if I really am Oing this late. My cycles average between 28-30 days. Thoughts?

    What CD are you? It's possible to be still waiting to O and it's possible to have fertile CM after O. Do you temp or use OPKs?

    I almost regularly get EWCM at least one day of my LP. I'm convinced its just left overs.  I usually go dry a few days after ovulation, and then one random day of fertile cm, and then non-fertile cm follows until my period.  So it's very possible it could be EWCM but that you have already o'd.

    Yes I get strange CM in the TWW. Have you temped in previous cycles?  Def start temping. if you have a consistent range of temps you fall into before and after O you may be able to figure out if you Oed or not based on if they are high or low. Does that make sense?

    My first cycle of clomid I ovulated cd19, this cycle cd 18.  I was concerned that I ovulated later but after some googling I discovered many women ovulate later in their cycles on clomid. I don't ovulate on my own either so I had no idea what to expect the first cycle.
    TTC since May 2015 with domestic partner of 13 years. Me 33 OH 33.  No ovulation or natural menstruation. Normal SA.
    Diagnosed PCOS February 2016
    First cycle 50mg Clomid 5/3/16, O'd CD 19 BFN
    Second cycle 50mg Clomid 6/1/16 O'd CD 18 BFN
    Third cycle Clomid 6/29/16 O'd CD 16 BFP @11dpo!
    EDD April 3 and praying things work out!

    @JRB3, it does.   I've only temped once before and I was so inconsistent (accidentally getting out of bed & brushing teeth before I remembered to temp) that I wasn't sure it was for me.  I've toyed with trying again though.

    @Ducks&Cats thanks for the thoughts. :)
