Question

Can I still ovulate????

I'm so confused. I had my first EWCM on CD10 and it lasted through CD12 and I've had watery CM CD 13 and 14. I'm currently on CD 14. I took an OPK on CD11 and it was positive so I expected to ovulate sometime within the following two days.... Except I haven't according to my temps. I ovulated on CD15 last cycle.... Could I still ovulate even though I'm past the two days since the positive opk? I took an opk this morning (cd14) and it was negative. I'm using the clear blue advanced digital. Also a side note, I have SUPER sore nipples today and yesterday.... Not sure what that means. My bbt chart is on my page for reference. This is my second cycle trying... Before that I was on bcp. Last cycle was a pretty text book cycle in my opinion which surprised me since I had just come off bcp but this cycle is making me confused. Help?!?!

I have had problems with this OPK before. It has given me the static smiley face for peak fertility but according to my ultrasound and bloodtest I was not even close to it. I confirmed this later on my BBT chart.
One thing to keep in mind is: OPKs detect LH surges but not every surge leads to ovulation. Your chart is inconclusive at this point. But because you had EWCM AND a positive OPK on day 11 I would not be surprised if your temperatures were to climb starting tomorrow. Sometimes it takes a while for the temperatures to go up. If they don't at all then you probably did not ovulate. In my above-described cycle I went on to ovulate 4 days after receiving the static smiley face. I would continue with mucus observations and charting and have romance just in case. I am actually switching to a different OPK that allows me to test twice a day. Best wishes and the Lord's blessings.

I looked at your chart and it appears you ovulated cycle day 17 not cycle day 15. Keep taking OPK's, you probably have not ovulated yet as your chart only goes to cycle day 14. If you ovulate on cycle day 17 again you won't get a positive until cycle day 15 or 16. Sometimes you get an LH surge and not ovulate, so keep taking the OPK's.
