Well, I am continuing my daily testing and reporting back to you guys what test and results. This morning I tried something different, an equate +/- test. Again, a BFN. Again, still early so I'm not totally down about it but I have a few questions for you ladies.

I'm charting on FF. I have never had a drop below coverline until after AF arrived (charting previous times for DD's and I charted a cycle on paper before starting FF 2 months ago). I also have never in my life had a luteal phase less than 14 days long. I take my temp at the same time every morning, using an alarm clock to wake me so it's accurate. Sleeping conditions are the same every night and last night was no different. My temp this morning not only dropped a sudden .7 degrees but dipped below cover as well. I took it twice to check (actually I always take mine twice to make sure it's accurate). So WTH? No AF signs as all, no cramps or anything. I usually cramp 3-4 days before AF-very noticeable. And my cervix was so high I could not hardly reach it this morning, weird for me this close to AF. And it was tilted in a way it was hard to get to the opening, again very different for me.

I have another question for you ladies. Please take a look at my chart and tell me what you think. FF has my O day on cd 15. I am sure they are going by low temp and then it going up the next day but here is my thing. I finally got my first + opk on CD 15 but IT WAS LATE THAT EVENING. The test from cd 15 in the afternoon had my first ever line and it was light. Doesn't that mean I had to O at least 12 hours later making it cd 16? On cd 16 with FMU my opk was still + but I listed it as negative for that day as my second one at 10 am was lighter and by 2pm the second line was gone entirely. I had watery cm but was also taking mucinex so most of my CM would be watery instead of EWCM. I think I O'd on cd 16. What do you guys think with all the extra info I'm throwing at you LOL? I guess I'm saying I think I am 10dpo instead of 11dpo.

Any help you ladies could give me is always appreciated! I'm still holding out hope, as we all know it's not over until AF shows. I guess I'm just trying to make sense of it all in the meantime. Thanks!

Well, out of curiosity I put my + opk in for cd 16 and sure enough, FF not only moved my ovulation day to CD 16 but also moved my coverline to 98.0. I changed it back for now for opinions, but might put the +opk on CD 16 back later today.

It could be that you are correct, with the CM going past the FF O date of CD15.

I see your temp dipped a lot this morning Do you feel AF-y?

No, I don't feel AF at all. No cramps, bloating. Usually the cramps start early for me and the weird part is they disappear a day or two before AF actually arrives. It's been that way for me as long as I can remember. Just playing the 2WW game! Thanks

Well...it could be two different scenerios...

One, you're pregnant, and it's still just too early to pick up on an HPT. I really doubt this is the case, due to the temp drop(sorry!!!)

Two, you're just having an off month. I know when I was charting, I had NEVER had an off month...until I started paying attention to my cycles. It was very frustrating. I would keep charting...and keep us posted!
