Need some help figuring out exact dates.

Ok, I was talking to a friend, and she said to make sure I let the doc know that I O'd so late so that when they get around to doing a scan, they won't count the baby out because it's measuring small. Well, I got to thinking that I should un-adjust my temps just to be safe, and I just royally confused myself. Now FF is giving me several different possible O dates, depending on if temps are adjusted or not and if I leave in that (very iffy) positive OPK I had on CD 24.

Without the OPK, it tries to give me dotted crosshairs on CD13 with Advanced mode for both the original temps and the adjusted temps.. This would be almost normal for my cycles, and maybe make my mid-cycle spotting IB, but I can't see how it's possible as I had a negative blood test in the ER on CD 28 and that would have been 15dpo.

Without the OPK, I get dotted crosshairs on CD 24 with the original temps in research mode. I also get solid crosshairs on CD 24 with the OPK in both advanced and research mode using the untouched temps. This seems strange to me because of the dip below coverline on CD 26 or 2DPO.

With the OPK and the adjusted temps, I get solid crosshairs in both advanced and research mode.

Without the OPK, the adjusted temps only get solid crosshairs on CD 26 with Research mode.

I don't even get dotted crosshairs with FAM mode. For any of them. My original temps also briefly had dotted crosshairs on CDs 30 and 45 (despite my positive test on CD 37!) but that seems to have been a glitch, as it won't do it again. And I know those are definitely out. So which day do you think I O'd? CD 13, 24 or 26? Should I tell my doctor a date or just take a CH free chart (switch it to FAM) and hope she can see a pattern I'm not able to? And if I do that, should it be with the adjusted temps, or the originals?

Also, sorry this was so long. Giant

to everyone who was kind enough to read/look at all of it.

ETA: Ignore the dates on the "Original" cycle. I made a new cycle so I wouldn't have to readjust all my temps, and so I could compare them side by side. They are overlayed on my home page, if it helps.

Also, the EWCM was iffy. It stretched, but maybe an inch or 2, if that, and looked a bit to thin. But it was the only time it ever got stretchy, so I'm assuming it was EWCM.
