• Answer:

  I agree with the first answer. One of the signs of ovulation is eggwhite cervical mucus, a high and soft cervix and a temperature shift. It is a really good idea to confirm ovulation by doing the basal body temperature. The presence of cervical mucus isn't a for sure sign that you are going to ovulate, but it is one of the signs. You really need to get opk's and a basal body thermometer and cross check all your signs. You can keep track of your cycles at www.mymonthlycycles.com or www.fertilityfriend.com. They are both really good websites to use to help track your fertility.
