Hello all! I'm still trying to learn about all of this! My last period was 10/15 By the ovulation calendar, I should have ovulated some time around 10/27 Me and my hubby BDed 10/23, 10/26, and 10/28. As of tonight, 10/30 I noticed what I'm thinking was EWCM and my stomach has been cramping a little. It wasn't a whole lot. But I'm pretty sure that's what it was. My DH works nights and is at work now and will be working tomorrow night, so we will have no chance to BD in the next couple of days. If it was in fact EWCM tonight.. have I missed my open window or will the BDing that happened on 10/28 help us. I'm a little confused about exactly when you ovulate when you see the EWCM. Is it possible that you can have EWCM after ovulation? or maybe after fertilization? BTW, thanks to all who replied my post a few days ago. Its taking me a while.. but I'm learning =) Thanks again all!

Sperm can live in a fertile environment for a few days. I'd say a good estimate is 2-3 days, but I've even heard of up to 6 or 7. If you go on www.ovusoft.com you can look at a lot of charts and theres a section for not timing BD too well and some have gotten PGs with crazy timing.

You're definitely in the running until AF shows up!
