So I'm on like CD 55 or something (Feels like CD100) and supposedly FF says I ovulated....though if you look at my chart, you would think...."I dont think so...". So I'm looking in FF chart gallery for charts that look like mine with similar pre-O temps and similar post-o temps and I find this chart....


grrrrr....I can't seem to make it any bigger!!!

loooks a lot like mine.....so what do you all think of my chart then?? I want to call my doc and say "I haven't ovulated...do something" but I'm afraid to take any other measure to kick start my period when it's POSSIBLE I'm not out....what do you think??

I really don't think you have. I'm sorry to tell you that. Your temps are about the same as the ones before them.

I think you probably haven't O'd. Your chart looks very similar to my charts, I get ch's sometimes and then they go away later once it's obvious that I haven't O'd. I really don't know what to tell you, but I understand your frustration. I also keep thinking "ok I need to do something to kickstart af, but what if I did actually O this time?" I would think maybe giving it a few more days to be sure you didn't actually O would be fine, and then if you're more comfortable go talk to your doc. Sorry, I know how frustrating this can be.

I'm going to be the lone voice of disagreement here, but I think it's possible you did. It's not a great thermal shift, but it does meet the criteria. You need 3 temps at least 0.2 degrees higher than the previous 6. So if you take the highest of your lower 6, that's 97.3 (day 40). Add 0.2 degrees, and you need 3 temps which are at least 97.5 or higher. When you don't have 3 in a row, you have to wait to see if the 4th temp is at least that high. You've got that.

Now like I said before, it's not a great shift and that leaves some doubt about ovulation. There are a lot of temps sitting lower than 97.5 - so when the temps are ambigious, the only way to know for sure is to evaluate the CM pattern. At any point did you notice feeling very slippery? If so, when? And what has the CM been like for the last 9 days that it wasn't recorded?

I think it could be a weak thermal shift, but I would count the 97.4 as the highest of the previous 6, which would mean the higher tmeps need to be 97.6, which they aren't.

But, you can see a pattern which leans my towards thinking maybe Oing on CD 44.

Can I just say I love you ladies for saying something positive to me today!

Not that I don't VERY much appreciate the honesty of everyone else because I really do. That's why I love these forums but it's nice to hear that at least a few people say "it's possible.....go with it"....it's just been a bad day so it was nice to come and read what you had to say.


so thanks

I know what you mean hon! Hang in there....when will you test?

[hustons]

ohhh I probably wont test until FF says test....which would be Dec. 16 (next Wednesday). That's if my temps stay above the coverline....otherwise FF will take away my crosshairs and tell me I didn't ovulate....which means I'm calling my doctor...

I am new at charts, but I think you might have. I have a pretty small rise too. Good luck!!!

[hustons]

well at least my temp went up today! Even if it was only a little! Now that I look at my chart, I DO see a bit of a higher patter....at least not that many are below my coverline and to be honest I think may have ovulated on CD43 and not 44 which should really put my Coverline at 97.2.

If that happened, my chart would look much more convincing.....but I dont want to manually change it....sometimes I have to just trust the FF program
