We were going to NTNP although we haven't really. Things have kind of been the same as usual. Sometimes we are careful, and sometimes we aren't, but if I did O early, there would def be a chance because we weren't doing anything to avoid around that time since I'm usually in the clear around that time! </p> <p>@umbreon It has been about 3 years or so since I have temp'ed, so I forget how much it ranges! I picked up a new thermometer yesterday so I can start getting in the habit again! I should have known though, because my cycles have been pretty irregular since I stopped breastfeeding about 6 months ago. They have been anywhere from 25-34 days long. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-ovulation#post-2653922 Thu, 17 Nov 2016 18:27:25 +0000 Umbreon 2653922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had one cycle where I was very dry and barely had EWCM. My O pain was weird that cycle as well. I happened to be temping though, and very clearly ovulated. AF came exactly two weeks later as I'd expected based on the chart. </p> <p>I've also had it happen where I've ovulated way earlier than I was expecting. It doesn't happen often, but it happens now and then. I've been keeping track of my periods and symptoms for a year and a half now, and I've been temping for maybe 4-5 months. I can tell you, even though I'd say my cycles are super regular, it's not REALLY regular. I've ovulated as early as CD10 (only once this early though) and as late as CD19. I usually ovulate between CD13-16. I always get AF two weeks later though, so it's predictable in that way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-ovulation#post-2653876 Thu, 17 Nov 2016 17:34:22 +0000 Emsmems 2653876@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wrote a big post and my phone deleted it. Ugh. </p> <p>You never know. In August I had NO signs of ovulation (usually I have EWCM and cramping/twinges with ovulation but nada). I did OPK's from day 14 on (usually ovulated on day 16ish) and they were all negative. And lo and behold, I got pregnant! We had sex on days 10,12, and 14, so I'm guessing I ovulated early. Point is, just have sex and hope for the best! TTC can be so frustrating and confusing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-ovulation#post-2653856 Thu, 17 Nov 2016 17:14:34 +0000 DaniNae 2653856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a super wonky (and late) period last month. I spotted for 5 whole days before it actually turned into a real period, and then my period was only 4 days. Typically I spot for a couple days and then have a period for about 6-7 days. I counted the first day of regular bleeding as CD1. On CD8 I had all of my normal ovulation symptoms but without any EWCM (well, to the eye at least, I didn't actually dig around and check "up there"). I even had pinching in my lower back on the left side and a bit of spotting (which happens every month around O time). </p> <p>So far, still no EWCM (just creamy) and no other symptoms that would signal ovulation yet, but its still only CD12, so that could change. </p> <p>I'm not temping so I can't confirm that it was actually O and not something else. </p> <p>So to sum it up, the only difference was that I think I ovulated super early and without noticeable CM. </p> <p>Do you think that last month could have been anovulatory and I just didn't notice, which threw everything off and caused me to ovulate "early" since technically the period I had wouldn't have been a period? Do you think the O symptoms could have been caused by something else? OR did I count the wrong day as CD1, and everything should be adjusted? What is the most likely scenario?</p> <p>I'm so mad I wasn't temping, otherwise I would probably know! Grrrr.... </p>
