Hi ladies! Hoping you ladies could help me understand my chart this cycle. It's my first cycle on Clomid and FF gave me crosshairs yesterday. I'm not so sure I o'd when it says I did.. didn't get my first +'ve OPK until after my temp rise. Anyway, any opinions? I'm pretty sure my temps are accurate. Thanks!

I had FF moving my CH around last month, and I didn't agree with it, but in the end, FF was spot-on correct. Though, i would say you O'ed on CD20, not CD18...but FF probably knows best

The way your chart looks at the moment, I'm inclined to agree with cd18 (with a fallback rise).
A few more temps will give a more accurate picture - it's the +opk that's making the crosshairs dotted (as a conflicting sign) but hopefully you BD'ed across the whole time including past O to cover all bases?
Good luck!

Thanks ladies! Hopefully the next few temps will help pinpoint which day was o day. Regardless, I plan to test next weekend. DH and I did dtd every other day starting CD 9 and bd'd past CD 18 and CD 20. Hopefully that's enough! Can I still temp if I'm doing shift work? I work mostly night shifts next week and I'm worried it'll throw my chart off.

I think you may have o'd on CD20 too. I would say it looked like a fall back rise pattern but the positive opk just doesn't make sense. Can you try changing your charting method to the fertility awareness method. Go to Analysis then Tuning/Override and select Fertility Awareness method. I find it more accurate than FF advanced method.
I think it could be a fall back rise pattern and CD18 but if you don't get your BFP when you think you should I would start looking at CD20 as the date. I can see why FF picked day 18 though. If you didn't have the positive OPK in there I would probably go with it too.

If I change it to fertility awareness, it takes my crosshairs away and it'll give me crosshairs if my temp is still up tomorrow. I'll just leave it at advanced for now and I'll test next Saturday. Thanks!
