Ovulation ??

So, on Thursday I had the little twinge of pain you sometimes get with ovulation (I'm pretty sure that's what it was). Dh and didn't do the deed though until yesterday.. so we totally missed the boat. But now today I am having that ovulation type discharge. Hmmm? Now I'm confused. Could I have mistaken the twinge and not ovulated on Thursday and be ovulating now? Or is the discharge different from having sex and not ovulation? Any suggestions... I really hope I am ovulating now so that it's possible that I can be pg but if not then there's always next month!

Thanks for your input!

Okay... this may sound weird but my DH saw something online about this. :-) If you take some of the discharge (on a Q-tip maybe), run a little water under it... if it dissolves it's semen and if it doesn't it's discharge. Again, I'm not sure where he saw it but it sounds like it makes sense!

for me that discharge is always a sure sign of ovulation. I only get that twinge of pain once in a while. I just found out I am pregnant and we did the deed the day before I saw signs of discharge. That window of oportunity is a nice thing!!!!

I'm thinking the discharge might be more accurate than the twinge... because the twinge can easily be something else, but the discharge is harder to mistake.. I think. But that could just be my hopeful thinking too. This is gonna be a looooooong 2 weeks! Hopefully my boobs will show some signs to let me know.

Thanks!
