I've been temping for 2 months now. Before that I went by opk and cm signs. So, I have always o'd on cd14 or cd15. Here it is cd17 and nothing according to my temps. I don't know what to think. Will I not o this month, have I o'd and it doesnt show? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Every woman, no matter how regular, is bound to ovulate earlier or later than usual from time to time. Each cycle is unique. O can be delayed from stress, illness, travel, or no reason at all. Keep watching, there's no way to predict what will happen...just tracking it as it happens.

to Shawna. I would also recommend using OPKs with temping. You might have better luck with determining when you O ahead of time.

Hope you O soon hon! Keep us posted!

I agree with the other girls, hun. It is normal to have an "off" cycle, or where you O earlier or later. Best of luck to you!

Keep in mind that a lot of things -- stress, travel, change in environment, etc. -- can delay ovulation as well. Also, both OPKs and CM predict ovulation before it actually happens -- whereas the temperature shift is your sign that ovulation has already occurred... so even if you were getting +OPKs and lots of CM on CD14 or 15, you may not have been actually ovulating until 48 hours (or more!) afterwards.
