You could just now be ovulating. If you are getting EWCM then you are very fertile. Don't worry about temps. you can have a temp shift and still ovulate late. Sometimes your body gears up to ovulate but for some reason waits 24-48 hrs to actually ovulate. I would get to BD if you have EWCM!

i agree. i used to assume that i ovulated on the day with the lowest temp which i learned later is completely off. look for a rise in temp for about 3 days. the day before that is usually the day you ovulated.

You need at least 3 days of high temps to confirm that ovulation has happened--otherwise it could just be one random high temp.

Also it is possible to have some ewcm after ovulation, it could just be some left over that hasn't made its way out yet. But if you are seeing ewcm and you haven't had 3 days of high temps you should still be BDing! Good luck!

Temp dropped to 97.1 this morning... who knows. This is the first month I've actually followed through and made it this far with temping but I feel like it's driving me crazy thinking about it. Less CM today, so maybe today is the big o! Thank you all for commenting, made me feel a little less crazy about the drop and rise in temps!! :)
