Can someone stalk my chart and tell me if they think I've O'ed? I think it happened on day 15 or 16 but FF isn't saying anything - I'm thinking it's because I started charting mid-cycle and they're trying to figure out a pattern. But my temps aren't even increasing steadily - it's like increase, dip, increase, dip...

Ugh, I can't even do THIS right

I looks promising, but FF is probably not giving you an O date because there isn't enough temperature data prior to when it looks like you might have ovulated to confirm a thermal shift. You can go by mucus alone to confirm ovulation though, but in order to help you with that I would need more mucus information than FF gives. It's just not comprehensive enough. Keep charting, you're doing great - but it will probably make more sense next cycle when you have data from the entire cycle and not just part of it.

FF usually uses at least 6 pre-O temps to establish a thermal shift to confirm your O date. At least that's my understanding anyways. Having a complete chart next cycle (if there is one) will really help. Don't worry about the ups and downs of your temps either, it's the overall pattern that matters. If you look at my charts a lady here once compared them to the stock market and I have to say that's pretty accurate!

Yeah, thanks ladies. Turns out I O'ed on Day 17 and I didn't BD that day.

You don't have to BD on O day. Your fertile window consists of the 3 days before O, the day of, and the day after. You do still stand a chance as long as you BD'd during that time frame. Good luck!
