EWCM but not ovulation time?

Serenity

Hi ladies, so I did a LH test this morning right when I woke up. It was definitely negative/low. I’m currently having EWCM but no ovulation? I already ovulated and confirmed it on August 21st. Yes, I am TTC baby #1. I am currently 11 dpo today. I have tested and gotten faint lines but nothing bright and obvious yet so not sure if I am or not..(I know it’s still early). I’m on cycle day 26 already. Can anyone give me some insight on what’s could be going on? I’m current 3 days away from AF. It’s a medium amount. Isn’t CM suppose to “dry” up before AF?
