WOW. That's just crazy!
Do you temp orally? I used to, but I sleep with my mouth open at night and I was getting insane temp charts (I actually trashed them after the fact). I switched to vag temping, and everything started to look more normal. (And it's not nearly as skeevy to vag temp as I thought it would be).

I temp orally. But my thermometer is always really cold when I put it in my mouth, so I hold it in my mouth until it warms up to the temp of my mouth before I push the button. I think that's the main reason I don't vag temp. The idea of sticking my cold thermometer in there just isn't a pleasant thought. That and it's always on my bedstand next to my bed and my kids have on occasion gotten in there and played with it.

When you use fertility friend free to chart do they put the crosshairs on there for you?

Yeah, it does it automatically. I'm not quite sure what their criteria are, because it surprised me. If I were to have done it myself I would have put it on cd 21 not cd 22. I had O pains on cd 21 and I didn't on cd 22. But if I *really* went by how I felt I would have put it on cd 15.

 Now you just need that stealth BFP to go with the stealth O!

I don't know Tobi, I feel like my chart is lying to me. I guess we'll see.

I second the vaginal temping. That's worked out much better for me than temping orally. Your chart confuses the heck out of me -- I hope those crosshairs are right on target!

I told you! Your oral chart looks better than my oral chart. I'm going to go get the link to show you ( the link in my siggy is to my vag chart, which looks totally different). If you don't get a bfp this cycle, you should try vag temps. I used to think people who took vag temps were over the top, but now I'm a believer.

I really honestly don't think it's something I would do. lol. Maybe if I went a few more cycles with crazy temps, but this cycle is looking better than last, so hopefully my body is figuring itself out. My pre-bcp charts looked really good, and that was oral temping too.

I promise I won't push the whole vag temp thing anymore, lol. Here's a link to my oral chart: 27c4b Ovulation Charts
Good luck to you Brittanie! When are you testing?

Well, Wednesday would be 12dpo from FF's date, so I think I'll test then. I've never gotten a bfp before AF was due though. But I've never charted before, so I may not have been right about my actual O day. So we'll see what Wednesday brings.
