How To Know The Exact Timing Of Ovulation?

trying to concieve I am 38 year old mother of three and desparatly wanting baby #4 We been trying for 4 uears to concieve. I went to my doctor two months ago and she took a pap smear and blood tests and got the results two weeks later said everything was normal then put me on clomid I took it for two cycles and no baby so I decided to take a month break from clomid and we keep track of my cycles, cervical mucus on an app i downloaded. And it gives me different ovulation days. My husband and i had sex every other day starting on the 11th. I noticed egg white mucus on my cycle day #12. I also took opk that whole week and never got a positive ovulation day. Now these apps told me i ovulate anywhere between cycle day 11-22. I do not know when i actually ovulated. My period was august 1st. My cycles vary from between 27-31 days. I have had a few symptoms sore boobs, fatigue, some nights I cant sleep, I am crabby some days, some days I pee every hour some days no. Three nights ago I was lying on my bed on my stomach reading a book and felt painful twinges in my lower abdomin on my right side. I just want to know do you think I done everything right and this month is my month? And do you think I indeed ovulate when I got the egg white cervical mucus? And since my cycles fluctuate how do I know I am ovulating? My last two cycles were 30 days long and the one before those two was 29 days.

Hi,

Since your age is 38 years, you should not waste more time in less predictive methods like cervical mucous change. Do UPT if you haven't got periods since August 1st, if UPT negative, consult a infertility specialist.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
