13 DPO... or am I?

Hey, all you charting experts...
I tested this morning, thinking a 13 day LP was about normal for me so something should show up, maybe... hopefully... and I got a really ugly BFN. Kind of expected that. I couldn't see a line for the life of me, so I passed on taking a picture.

I'm pretty sure I made my ticker correctly so that you all can see my chart (if not, let me know how to do this as I'm still quite a newbie.) I'm starting to think that maybe FF was wrong and that I Od closer to 10/3-10/4, which would make me 10 DPO and make more sense based on my lack of typical PMS symptoms... not including my uber tender BBs (ouch, btw!

) It would also make my BD timing horrible. Bleh.

Do you think FF was right with my O timing, or could there be a mixup? And on that note, I'm going to buy some OPKs for next time, because this is frustrating.

I definitly think you O'd on the day FF says, if anything MAYBE a day off because of your watery CM. I think your chart looks VERY good, I hope your temp shoots back up tomorrow!

I agree. I think CD 17 is correct for two reasons 1) if you were to take out that higher temp on CD 16 it would be very clear that from CD 18 onward the trend is higher temps. So I think that one temp on CD 16 is obscuring the pattern a bit, but the overall picture is what you should go by. 2) Your fertile CM didn't continue after CD 18 which makes me think it is unlikely you were still fertile by 10/3 or 10/4.

The BFN is no fun of course...but 13 DPO is still very early. I hope your temp continues to stay high and look forward to seeing another test in a couple of days! Good luck

Thanks very much for the input, ladies!

CD18 gets my vote as CM Peak, so ovulation could have been CD19 or 20 based on that.

I was thinking CD20 could be it myself for the same reasons. I often dry up a couple days before I ovulate so I think this is a possibility. You see a nice shift after CD20. I can see why FF has it marked but 96ish temps are pretty low post o temps. I really think you could have ovulated at the later date.
