Sorry for the tmi i am ttc girl end of april/may have been doing diet since january and have lost 10lbs so far and have just started exercising.
Ive have found that i ovulate on day 14 (i get my dip in morning) but i have no cm at all leading to ovulation and on ovulation day i am just "wet" no cm. But the 2 days after ovulation i have watery egg white cm and lots of it but there the days i have had my rise so i no ovulation has passed? Is that good for ttc girl or does it sway more boy? is there anything i can do or take to help dry it up thank you in advance

We are finding that there are all kinds of different patterns to CM and none of it seems to follow any surefire pattern.

Your temps tell you way more than CM does and so I'd go off those.

We don't know if it's girl or boy friendly. If you do not have EWCM coming into O I would NOT take anything to dry it up before OR after (I never like people to take things to dry up CM after ovulation anyway because it could possibly be harmful to a developing pregnancy)

I had it after ovulation in the month I conceived my daughter.

What you have to understand is it is NOT the act of ovulating that makes CM. It is estrogen levels. So whenever there is some estrogen hanging around, your body will make some EWCM. And some months it takes longer for your body to clear that estrogen and you may make it longer.

The claims that EWCM dry up right after O are not and cannot be true.

Can you post your chart? I wonder if you might be misinterpreting your temps. You don't necessarily O when you have a dip, more often the dip occurs a few days BEFORE O. And while you csn absolutely have fertile CM for days after O, it is unusual for that to occur regularly. It is much more common for CM to dry up before O.
