I Need Some Help with My Chart Please!

I am needing some help with my chart.  This is my first month doing it, and I'm a little confused about when to discard a temp and when to leave it.  First off, here is the link to my chart:

My Ovulation Chart

 

My husband and I were out late on Saturday night and didn't get home until about 3 AM.  Therefore, I ended up not taking my temp until 8:30 AM vs. my usual 5:30 AM.  It was a lot higher than my temp normally is, so I don't know whether to discard it or just leave it with the open circle?  Also, I read the info on FF but am still a little confused about pinpointing ovulation.  Does it look like I may have ovulated on CD13?  I put in some phony info for tomorrow and Friday just to see if I got crosshairs, but it didn't give me any.  I am just really confused and need some help!  Thanks!

Don't discard it.  Let FF figure it out!! 

I don't think that you have ovulated yet.  You will know that you have ovulated after you see three sustained higher temps.  FF will give you solid red or dotted (if it is a little unsure) cross hairs to show your ovulation date and cover line.  

Hope that helps!

I agree with PP, don't discard it and I don't think you ovulated yet either... GL!

Your temps will be higher than your pre-O temps after you ovulate. I think it really helps to look at other ladies charts.....click on the tickers in our siggys and you'll start to see the patterns. I have learned a ton from chart stalking!

 Thanks for the help ladies!  I won't discard the temp then.  I was totally confused about the ovulation temps, but I understand what it means now .  Thanks again!
