Stalk My Chart

suziq1978

So I am completely clueless.  FF indicates that I ovulated on 11/25.  Af was due yesterday and nothing.  BFN this morning.  I'm new to this so am wondering if there are any expert chart readers out there.  I'm wondering if I actually didn't o until 11/29 and my cm just doesn't match that.  Thanks for any help!

I'm not great at this, but I think 11/29 is a possibility.  I wonder if FF was faked out by the really low temp on 11/25.  It does seem like your real sustained temperature rise was after 11/29.  Have you ever considered doing OPKs?  They do take a little guesswork out of it.    Good luck!!

I was thinking about doing OPK's this cycle but never got any.  I guess I will get some for next cycle.  I have a BBT but it only goes to the tenth maybe I need to get one that goes to the hundreth degree to get a better reading.

I don't chart but have been studying charting.  I agree with everyone else, I am thinking the 29th as well to when you O'd.  But I also think FF may be picking up on the CM as well.  Have you tried to discard the abnormal temp and see what it does?

Edited to add: about CM

@sonpetitlapin - if I discard the low temp on 11/25 it moves my o date to 11/29.  It's just weird because my cm doesn't match up at all.  According to cm I wasn't even fertile on the 29th.  I don't know what to think.

@clgsquared - so do you think I should discard the low temp on cd 13?

Thanks ladies!  I discarded the temp on the 25th and that moved o date to the 29th.  This sucks because it means we are totally out this cycle because timing was around cm.  Oh well.

I think the 29th looks more likely just looking at your chart.  Ditto what others said about using OPKs to help you as another indicator of ovulation.  You did have CM on day 29.  Maybe it was just a less than ideal ovulation with the CM not matching up so well.

Also I have a thermometer that goes to the hundreths and I find that very helpful as well.

I am new to all this and can't even understand my chart so I am no help there but...you really should get a BBT that reads to the hundreth. From what I have read and from what I understand, that's really important. 

And like @clgquared said, you aren't out yet! 

Good luck

The 29thdefinitely looks like it to me.  There is a clear shift there... even if there was a low temp before that, the rise and sustained rise happens after the 29th.
