Small vent / First world problem RE: charting

My chart was looking textbook. FF gave me crosshairs! Solid freaking crosshairs. And then my temp plummeted this morning. Wtf!?! And a message popped up saying FF "could no longer interpret my data"

And I thought to myself - yeah, asshole - thank god I'm still using the free version.

6 months of charting- 2 pregnancies - and it never gives me CH (even on the BFP charts).

Now this month it took them away.

I even took my temp twice this morning to make sure and the temp was more or less the same so I entered it but, now it looks ugly!

    What is your DPO? If it's just one temp they might put the cross hairs back when your temp goes up again.

    FF is mean like that. It gets all confused unless you enter like everything - cm, temps, OPKs. And even then it gives and takes cross hairs like it's no big deal.

    @Mrs Castillo‌ @annibes 4dpo if O happened when I think it did, based on OPK and CM. Funny thing is - FF agreed with me- until today.

    I'll try and link later when I'm not mobile...

    It went from 98.19 (yesterday) to 97.08 (today).

    Have you tried temping vaginally? I've read that can be much more consistent.
    Boooo to ff!!

    @almostamissus‌ I've never temped vaginally.

    Maybe I'll try that. Thanks!

    If you switch to temping vaginally, do it at the beginning of a new cycle.  If you switch mid-cycle, then FF will probably think you o'ed on the first day of bag temping.  I usually see a full degree difference between oral and vaginal.  I do both because I can't here the them beeping under all my covers, lol.  Plus I like to compare.  

    But, I will say that I'm having some charting frustration this month, too.  My temp jumped as if I o'ed on cd13, which is SUPER early for me, and has followed my usual post-o pattern, but I haven't started my period yet.  So, maybe I didn't actually o?  But I started taking progesterone, so maybe that's why I haven't started my next cycle, but my temp dropped.  If the progesterone is staving off my next cycle, shouldn't it be keeping my temp up, too?  Annoying!

    @GraceyandTroy‌ thanks hon! I actually googled "how to temp vaginally" I felt like an idiot- haha.

    I think I will start next cycle, though. I do funky stuff in my sleep and I wonder if the one odd temp this month is the result of me sleeping with my mouth open or something?

    Funny thing is- FF gave me my CH back this morning but, it raised my cover line.

    Good luck with the progesterone :)
