How soon can you ovulate?

[Kat1980]

Hi I usually ovulate around day 16-18 but this cycle my ovulation chart on fertility friend.com shows that I ovulated on cycle day 13. Isn't that too soon? I have a 28-29 day cycles. I can only rely on
the temps since I only had one day of creamy cm and that was on cycle day 13. I don't know how to post the chart over here.

My temps are:

Day 1 Menses
Day 2 Menses
Day 3 Menses
Day 4 97. 5
Day 5 97.2
Day 6 97.1
Day 7 97.3
Day 8 97.3
Day 9 97.3
Day 10 97.3
Day 11 97.8
Day 12 97.3
Day 13 96.8 lot of creamy cm
Day 14 97.7
Day 15 97.9
Day 16 97.8
Day 17 97.9

I tried checking my cervix also but it always felt sort of hard (like a nose) not like the lips like some describe.

After you ovulate, are you not supposed to have any cm? What about the arousal fluid? Is that very similiar to the eggwhite cm? I think I had some egg white cm after day 13 but I don't know if that was the arousal fluid or what.



Thanks in advance

Hi Kathy: If you didn't have that 97.8 on cd 11, then I would agree with O being on cd 13. However, your temps on cds 14 and 16 are not higher than your temp on cd 11 and your temps on cds 15 and 17 are only .1 degree higher. What is your usual coverline?

If I were you, esp. because you said you usually O later than cd 13, I would assume you have NOT ovulated yet and I would keep BMSing regularly. It doesn't have to be every day if you don't want (), but I would think you should keep going through at least cd 20 and any day you see good cm. And keep temping! You might see a more dramatic rise!

Good luck and keep us posted++++++++++
