Ewcm vs Sperm

Yesterday I had a almost postitve opk, today's was fainter but still clearly visible. Would this mean ovulation has all ready occurred or hasn't happened yet? I also have ewcm, very clear,stretchy that has only started today, but we did bd last night, so I'm wondering if it could be leftover? Is there a way to tell the difference? (sorry tmi). Im on Cd12 and a bit confused ???? any helpful hints would be most appreciated. This is my first month using opks so I'm unsure what to expect. Tia xxx

Ewcm doesn't really have a smell. Semen on the other hand smells tangy and very strong. If it helps, after you and your hubby/bf BD next, take a smell and you will know. Its one smell I can't handle after BDing. Good luck.

Keep testing. Opk's can go from neg to positive in a very short time. Mine tend to darken each day, then lighten, then go positive. Ur urine sample can alter results somewhat, as well. If u had sex lastnite then what ur seeing today is def ewcm. Semen liquifies in about 20-30mins, it also isn't clear and super stretchy like ewcm. Keep testing and bd'ing.
Good luck! =))
