Good luck Claire30, you're chart looks fab.
Help! FF thinks I've ovulated already, I'm certain I haven't. I've literally only finished my AF on Friday and had 2 days of sticky CM. Will start opk tests today but no symptoms at all of ov'ing. My temp has risen and stayed high but I know from the few days of charting of the end of my last AF that my temps should be much higher than currently post ovulation.
How do I change it on the chart or will it sort itself out once my temps rise again when I've ovulated?

Bagpuss you only have dotted lines - FF does this when it thinks that you may have ovulated but once it is sure they will become solid - even so I would get bedding now just incase they are right!! If I ever put WCM or EWCM after ovulation they change the lines to dotted!!
Good luck x

Hi all,
Well my temps have gone down again today!
Which is great news to me because I definitely didn't ovulate early. I am relieved to have more BDind opportunities 
Yes Bagpus, ROM is right. Just wait and see how things pan out. But I really don't think it could be right either. It's the cervical mucus that confuses it.
I was also confused about mine. But realised I had been mistaking something else for it (sorry TMI I know
)
Claire30 - fingers are crossed
Have you tested again?

Have you tested again?Hey all
Claire30 I can't wait for your next test, I have everything crossed for you
sookie, lol, I only just realised what you'd mistaken for CM
Bagpuss, hope you chart sorts itself out soon
Chrissy and ROM sorry to hear AF arrived, here's hoping you both get a Christmas BFP
I ordered some of that FertilAid for men for OH and that arrived today - here's hoping it does improve motility and is the kick up the arse that his swimmers need
Also I have requested a reading from Cheri22, can't wait to hear what she says
I have just realised too, this is kinda my first 2ww on account of the fact that this is the first time I've had Ov confirmed (at least I think it is looking fairly likely considering my temps after the almost positive OPK) - so yay

Just realised that you're on your 2WW wait Mildly after looking at your chart, then spotted that you'd mentioned it in your post - doh!
Good luck hun.
Let us know what you're reading is, it's all sounds very interesting.
Sookie, it's very easy to mix the two up! In the Zita West book it says to analyse your CM from lunch time onwards the day after BD'ing as by that time you should not be seeing any little swimmers 
it should be CM.

On FF I find it hard to say what my cervix opening is like as it was ripped to shreds when I had my son 7 years ago (they had me pushing when all of the cervix hadnt actually gone back) 
So I cant distinguish the opening of it, whether its hard, soft etc.
CM is watery but also a bit whitish, at what stage would you all think I am at right now? Due to ov i reckon?

So Claire??? What's the story?
Good luck for your 2WW Mildly! I hope the fertilaid helps DH's swimmers.
Well I got around to going for my ultrasound today, and using my best deciphering medical spanish skills as far as I can see everything is normal.
I will have the doc go through the results with me when I go back next week but the outcome was definitely uterus and fallopian tubes all 'within normal parameters'.
Thanks for that tip Bagpus about waiting until after lunch the day after BDing to check CM. It means that I need exactly the same question answered Scones. It's now quite stretchy but whitish. Def no EWCM but it's not watery either. How do I classify it?

hmmmm.........could well be a chemical.
Not much of a consalation I know but at least you know for definite now and your not wondering.
My cycle is all over the place at the minute but It's my first month charting through AF so I don't really know what to expect. And I drown my sorrows of not being PG again with a bottle of wine on Saturday night so no wonder my temp went through the roof!!!
Hoping it will level out over the next few days.

Oh Claire I am sorry - but until AF is here its not all over Look after yourself x x x
Look after yourself x x xClaire, you're chart is still looking good and it's still early for testing. Not everybody gets an early positive.
If you follow my chart link I have my chart from the month I got pregnant with my first child in Oct 05. I had a temp dip on 14DPO and still got a positive. That temp dip isn't a huge drop by any means.
Still keeping my fingers crossed for you.
Sookie & Scones, does sound like EWCM to me. Especially if it's stretchy. It tends to get thinner more of a lotion consistency when you're at your peak fertile time. If in doubt BD!
We've started our BD'ing mission. I just hope I ovulate at my normal time rather than late this month as DH has a minor op in early Dec. If I'm late ovulating again it will clash with the op. Nightmare.

Hope so Bagpuss, as sometimes the cm is watery with white bits in it as well. What would I call that? Ewcm? Im not sure does it have to be totally clear to be ewcm?
OH gone to bed now so no bding tonight(last time bd 2 nights ago-must pounce tomorrw methinks!!!!)

LOL, let him get his rest ready for tomorrow. We're both shattered tonight too so earlyish nights for us.
From what you've described in terms of consistency, it sounds like EWCM. Have you noticed a change from it being creamy to lotion type CM? You might notice really stretchy, stringy CM, this is when you're at your peak. Not everybody gets that. I don't get it every month. When I conceived with my son I didn't notice any EWCM.
Off to bed for me too, so tired tonight.

I would call that eggwhite.
I have creamy/white but quite stretchy cm ATM. Prob stretches an inch too.
By the time I get the real deal though it is clear and stretched 3 inches or so. So I am assuming this is the lead up.
Sorry TMI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
