E3d vs E4d

I think I have delayed ovulation . Day 16 and fourth day of high
Is this leaning a boy sway now ?

No, it is not, and in fact I just read a definitive study that totally debunked the idea that the lenght of follicular phase sways at all. IT doesn't.

I suddenly feel very nervous that I've done the wrong thing and should have kept with Monday...

You would not have gotten pregnant with that far out of an attempt. You did the right thing.

So I've just noticed ewcm again... Is it possible to also have ewcm after ovulation aswel as before? Going to attempt tomorrow night so hopefully I may just catch the egg if I haven't ovulated yet x

Yes I did the month I got my girl. What you have to understand is that it is NOT ovulation that makes EWCM. It is estrogen. So if you take a little longer to clear the estrogen from your system (which happens sometimes, we know this from temp charts with slow rises) then you can still have EWCM for a couple days after O has occured.

I'm cycle day 23 of a 34 day cycle xx

You cannot know how long your cycle will be though. If you are only just now Oing, you will then have a normal 12-14 day LP, most likely, tacked onto whenever you actually O. If O is delayed, then AF comes late too (unless you coinciedentally develop a short LP at the exact same time, which is not that likely)

Oh, thanks atomic. Well that makes me feel better. So 4 days before ovulation was seriously unlikely?
I will relax... Don't want to now sway blue by obsessing!

You guys waiting to hear back from me puts too much pressure on me!! I can't always be on every day (esp in the free forums) and when I feel like you guys are postponing attempts for me, I feel too much pressure to be on here every day even when it is really hard for me to do that (some days the kids need me and stuff) So please don't hold off for me because even when I am online I don't always manage to get thru all posts.

When in doubt, attempt.

Second positive is irrelevant. You cannot tell when you Oed based on how soon your OPK go negative!! Again, and sorry to keep repeating myself but I don't think you're understanding this, you can have a short surge and still not have ovulated and O after your test is neg, and days of pos OPK and have Oed already with positive tests still.

Oh no!! I really didn't want to be putting pressure on you I'm sorry. I would just sometimes rather wait for your opinion if it's something I'm really really uncertain about and genuinely dont mind when or if the chance passes me by if it means I get your opinion first, which I can apply to next time x

It's seriously unlikely because your attempt would have been 5 or 6 days before O!! If you're just getting a pos OPK then you still have 1-2 days before O!

Yeah but I just feel really bad when people wait to hear from me and then I can't come through for you guys!! When in doubt, attempt, and if you just can't decide then please flip a coin.

Thinking about it, my first attempt was late on Monday night and my first positive Opk was Wednesday afternoon. I did have strong cramping on Thursday so perhaps that was the day, although I know cramping doesn't reliably pinpoint ovulation. Wouldn't that have only been 3 days before?
I'm going to shut up after this one as I'm sure I'm driving you crazy lol. Sorry atomic X

These long, long threads are sometimes hard for me to keep everything straight and follow it all from page to page.

I was going off of your statement you had attempt 4 days before O but then there was also all this stuff about the positive OPK so I jumped to the apparently erroneous conclusion you were tacking that onto the 4 days there. I guess I could have gone back and reread the whole thread before answering but I feel like I've already been pretty thorough in this thread. It doesn't matter, it's still low odds of conception without adding in an attempt.
