WHen i finished my AF July 11, I noticed very (TMI) very slimey brown spotting... on July 13... what is the likelihood of this being ovulation? how common is it for ovulation to start so soon?

I'm not 100% sure, but I don't it's possible to O that early. But then again, there has been reports of some women who got pregnant while on AF. So I guess anything is possible.

Was it a normal AF? Were you charting during that time? I don't think it would have been AF.

It sounds like it is just the remnants of AF. I don't think it is possible to O that early, but I guess anything could happen.

It would depend on when AF started. If you started your cycle on Jul 4th, then yes you could O on Jul 14th.

I've heard of some women who O'd during AF. I guess it would really depend on when your AF started. I O'd on CD 11 this time, so it is possible to O early.

I started spotting July 6, but the real thing didnt start till the next day...
so i would have been about CD7 or 8 when I had that weird spotting....???

I dont know i just don't feel like i had any mucous besides that... and i dont think i got preggy after bedding from CD10 to CD16...

[NutMeg76]

It is possible that you haven't O'd yet.

[BeckyK]

I don't think you can really O during AF. You would more than likely be having some annovulatory bleeding, the hormones wouldn't be right to both shed your lining (low estrogen, high progesterone) and ovulate (High Estrogen, low progesterone.)

Maybe your cervix was irritated. Did you have sex the night before?

I had the same thing yesterday...what looked like brownish EWCM. I was on CD 6 and had just finished AF on CD 4-5. I'm pretty sure it was just the end of AF...especially since I have sticky CM today.
