Does it look like I Oed?

crazybabybrain · #1 August 16th, 2009, 06:20 AM

Hi ladies... I am on day 21 of my cycle, which is usually around 32 days. I am not very regular. I was thinking that I would O around day 18, which is when I got my first positive opk. I have had 3 days of positive opks

and FF has not yet told me that I Oed. I feel like I can kind of see that my last few temps are higher than those earlier in my cycle, but my temps are erratic and it is not easy to see. I will not be able to take my opk until later, but I am confused. Does it look like I Oed to you? Thank you so much for your help!!!

Here is my chart: 28eafc Ovulation Charts

Hi there! I am not an expert by any means, but to me it looks like your body geared up to O sometime around CD 13, but that it didn't actually happen. The reason I say that is because you did get fertile CM around that time, but your later temps dipped back down to the levels they were at before CD 13. Once your temp jumps and stays high, then you'll know that you O'd.

Btw, something I didn't know until coming here, for a positive OPK to be truly positive, each line has to be as dark as the other. If one is even a little bit lighter, it's not completely positive. Were both lines equally as dark on the tests you took?

I am not sure. I can see why you think you could have, and I think you could have but I really don't see a clear thermal shift. I have been known to ovulate quite a bit after getting a positive opk (like up to five days later) so you just may be ovulating late this cycle. I think it is going to be hard to say for sure until you get a few more temps on your chart. Hope your temps start going up!!!

Yet again...

with Patty. It's really hard to tell right now.

I was using a digital opk, so I didn't need to worry about the lines. I got a negative today, after my three positives, so that makes me think at least it will happen soon if it has not already happened. Thanks for the input. Just talking about it makes me feel better. I had always assumed that I ovulated, but charting has given me this fear that I don't. I just can't wait to see my temps go up! Again, thank you guys so much.

I see your temp this morning is an open circle. What happened? Did you temp early or late?

I went to bed at 2:30 am (DH's friend had an end of summer party and I got the lucky job of designated driver) and I take my temp at 5, so I didn't have 3 full hours. I put in sleep deprived, and it came out as an open circle. Do you think that affected my temp?

Update: NOW it looks like I Oed! Nice big spike this morning!

I made DH BD already just in case. Off to work! Praying for confirmation on the O....

I was just stalking you this morning. YIPPPEE!! That is one heck of a temp spike! I think you o'd! If your temp dips down a little tomorrow don't worry. As long as it stays above your coverline you are in good shape. I REALLY THINK you o'd now!

Yep! No doubt that looks like an O spike for sure!!!

Down a teeny tiny bit from yesterday, but still up. Hopefully tomorrow I will get my lines!

Also, check out my moods. It is looking like that will be an easy way for me to see when O is coming or here. I felt great all month, and then BAM, I'm a crazy woman!
