First off, congrats to the BFPers I've been noticing!!! H&H 9 months to each of you!

So if my temp continues to rise like it has the past couple days, FF will give me an O date of CD17 and I wanted to see if you girls would agree with that? My temp seemed pretty low and dropped on CD15 so it seemed like I would have O'd that day???

Also, my temps are rising very slowly and I never got a positive opk. Though I am only able to test once a day around 6pm. If FF gives me crosshairs is that enough to confirm that I've O'd?

This is my first month of clomid so I will need to know if I in fact O'd or not so we know if the dose needs to go from 50mg to 100mg.

I have a feeling you are going to see a bigger temp rise soon but even if you don't I think you will get crosshairs soon. Your latest temp was higher than your previous six temps so if it stays up I think you probably o'd. When you have a slow rise like that it makes it tricky to say when you o'd so I would use your cm as a guide.

Wait and see what happens though. You may get a big temp rise tomorrow.

Thank you Patty!!! If FF says you O'd is that as good as a confirmed O or is it possible that you didn't O at all?

Well, I think it depends. If you have solid crosshairs and can see a clear shift then yes. But, if you have dotted crosshairs or a lot of temps that fall below your coverline then possibly no.

I am a pretty honest person so if I see your chart and think you o'd I will tell you. If I think it is iffy I will tell you that too. I think charting is useful for letting you know if you are ovulating and if your charts aren't clear that you are you should look into it. But, I think you are in good shape so far.

Thank you so much Patty, I sincerely appreciate your help and expertise! I'm excited to get my temp in the morning, hopefully I'll have some cross-hairs - if I O'd this month it'll be the first time in just over 6 months
