Hi Ladies I could do with some help I am driving myself insane trying to look at this myself. I just dont know enough about the charts yet.
So Im CD14 so supposed to ovulate today but fertility friend and how I have been feeling and CM suggests I ovulated early.
Fertility friend is saying between CD 8 and CD 12, I think I ovulated on CD 10
I had watery CM on the up run to CD 10 then after its been more creamy feeling ( I havent ever had ewcm).
would you ladies agree with fertility friend or do I still have the chances of Ovulating tomorrow or tuesday like my other apps are telling me. :wall2:

Is this your first time charting? Do you have any others?

I think it's difficult to tell at the min, there's not many recorded temps before hand to get a accurate base temp. But the jump in temps from cd10 is suggestive of ovulation. And it's not unusual to ladies to experience random early or late ovulations.

If it was me I would DTD over the next day or two to cover possible ovulation and continue temping to see what happens.


Hope that helps xx

its not my only chart i have one other as i didnt get on FF till after we started trying. my last chart isnt complete I stopped temping before ovulation because of having to run back home to be with dad i left my thermometer at home was the last thing in my mind but I did temp the start of the cycle if that would help my temps are always quite low to begin with I dont tend to hit 36c its always in the 35s.
Im planning on BDing till Wednesday just in case
 
To me can be that you are going to ovulate tomorrow as it looks like you having a drop in temperature today, but I am not an expert :lol:

Thanks hun we BDed today and will again tomorrow so we are covered
 
I just say if in doubt get on it! Lol. I’m rubbish an interpreting these charts x
 
Yea I'm getting better at it slowly but not knowing exactly when I ovulated is a nightmare because I literally only have cm to go by because I can't trust pains because of my fibro.
 
Are you not using OPK? I started to understand better my cycle using all together: OPK, BT, CM.....after two chart I can see a pattern now :yay:
 
There are a few temps that are 'disturbed' - this can negatively influence FF ability to accurately evaluate your chart for identifying O. Are you taking your temp at the same time? Are you getting a solid 3hr window of un interrupted sleep? Do you temp orally or vaginally? Do you use the same BBT thermometer during your entire cycle? Have you checked on its batteries? Are you ill...did you drink alcohol..

As you can see there are a few things to consider. BBT is all about the pattern not so much about a single temp

It's better to make sure you temp right throughout the month if you can. Helps to build up a better picture of what's happening. Also, if you can use opks or cm along with the BBT that will help even more, more info the better the prediction!

Hopefully, covering all bases this month will have done the trick and you won't need to chart next month. But if you do, start on cd 1 and follow it through.

Here's an example of my chart the month I got my BFP. Having lots of temps shows where I dipped and shot through the roof with temps, and opks/cm backed it up.

Good luck

I try and wake at 9am to temp there are maybe 2 temps in here that are later beucase I slept through my alarm but other wise I get a good 4 hours before I have to temp at a minimum, I temp orally, I use the same thermometer and it hasn't long had new batteries, I'm not Ill thankfully and I don't drink alcohol

I do note my cm when I remember to but there have been days i have forgotten to check and then we have had sex. I've been using opks but I don't think I'm getting much luck with them to be honest
 
Today's chart temps dipped so we shall see I suppose but cm is not fertile at the moment

Which opks do you use? Odd that your having no luck with them. They only give an indication of when you might ovulate so not an exact science. But you'd have thought they might have helped a little :/ how strange!

I use the one step ones. I've never gotten a strong positive on them I'm either really faint or you can see a line that's got some colour to it but it's no where near as strong as the control line I started using them before we started TTC granted I didn't know much about them I know more now thanks to this place but I had pictures of them all ( had to get rid of them now my phone memory was so low lol)
 
Well, you know my suggestion:

Lol yea we have been doing the deed OH is a happy man LMAO most of my apps I got more just to see which ones I like are talking poop so went with come people have suggested on YouTube videos I watch and seen on here and literally all apart from one that supposed to be all high flying CE approved is still saying Tuesday haha but I'm even more certain that I have ovulated because my boobs are so sore and seem to have grown over night and I've noticed my boobs feel fuller when I get into days past ovation but this month I'm literally bursting out my bra and I have a stretchy sport bra on that I wear all the time comfortably.
