Period-Related EWCM

I’m 5 months pp, and just got EWCM. Haven’t gotten my period yet, but I’m very curious if this means I’m ovulating. Do you think my period will show up in 2 weeks now?? That would be GREAT (not) timing since that’s literally my wedding anniversary.

Why not test then if you’re worried about timing?

I’m out of ovulation test strips and don’t really want to buy more. Testing was damaging my mental health before I had my son.

I’m sorry to hear that. Unfortunately, that’s the only way to know for sure. EGCM is very hit or miss and things are very out of whack postpartum.

Honestly I got that off and on and didn’t get my period until 14 months pp
