Question

Can you have EWCM after you ovulate?

I was supposed to ovulate the 30th but didn't until somewhere in between the 31st and the 1st. Today, I had a gush (tmi sorry!) of EWCM twice. I never had ovulation pains and they felt like weird pulling twinges(which was the night of the 31st into the morning of the 1st). The last time the fiancé and me DTD was 2 days ago. So my question is, is it possible to have EWCM a day after ovulation? I didn't have much EWCM coming out before today but had it when I would check my cervix! Thanks ladies in advance!

This doesn't answer your question, but I never have ovulation pains or twinges like you're talking about, either, but we DTD 1 & 2 days before I ovulated on the 30th & I had those twinges on both sides day of ovulation. Does that mean you're pregnant or just fertile?

I was about to ask this exact question. I typically ovulate day 14 and I have ewcm the before and on my ovulation day and then very quickly dry up. But I've had twinges in my ovaries and ewcm today, cycle day 16 and yesterday which is very odd for me. I'm very confused! I don't temp as my sleep is too erratic. I'm interested to see what other ladies can add! :)

@Magic, I think I ovulated but I'm just having EWCM! I hope this means good signs for us;) and @Floridachik19 the twinges are probably from your egg breaking thru:) typically, the egg will implant 6-12 days after you ovulate, but it is hard when you aren't sure about ovulation. I know I should temp and do OPK's but I have a weird sleep schedule haha and I'm not sure if I want to do OPK's just yet! :) Good Luck Ladies:) baby dust to all!:)

I would definitely bd again if possible. Altho u can have ewcm pretty much anytime in a cycle, its usually moreso before or during O. But yes its possible to have it after O, its an estrogen thing.
Good luck! =))

I did read an article which suggested bding every time you see ewcm gives a better chance of falling pregnant than estimating days so I am hoping the extra bd we got in last night will help. Why can't dtd make us ovulate like in cats!?! Would be so much more convenient than constantly guessing! :). Thanks for letting me gate crash your question and for the answers. :)
