Hey ladies,

Would you please check out my chart (linked in my sig)?

Here's the gist:

I had a very very nearly positive OPK on CD 12 (I think I might have just missed my surge-- I had a thread with pictures earlier.. maybe I should link it here (More OPK help please)...), and a temp shift so that FF gave me solid crosshairs on CD13. My OPKs got progressively more negative from then on. I stopped taking EPO after that since I thought I ovulated, and charted that my CM had dried up.

Then today I get a crazy high temp, and it's around the time I typically ovulate. I haven't noticed any fertile-quality CM lately-- just some creamier days here and there. I was also highly emotional/stressed yesterday... not sure if that's just from being busy and stressed, ovulation, PMS, or what, but that could have also caused the high temp.

What do you ladies think? I should just go hardcore with my chart and take down CM and CP every single freakin' day. I'm so sick of being confused with this stuff.

One positive thought, though... if it turns out that I did ovulate on CD 13, then I should be able to test right around Christmas, which would make for a very fabulous gift. ;-) We'll see.

Thanks so much for any help you can offer!

I think it looks like CD13. Good luck~!

The temp spike could be the beginnings of good news! There's no definitive way of knowing exactly what causes a temp rise. Trust me, if there were... it would take so much of the TWW stress out of things! Unfortunately it doesn't work that way.

I would HIGHLY recommend you start documenting your CM & CP every day if you are TTC. These are two pieces of information that make interpreting a chart sooo much clearer and easier!

Best of Luck to you and KUP!!

That looks like a very clear thermal shift to me. I don't know what to say about your opks but I can see an obvious shift on your chart. I think your o date is correct and you have one hot looking chart!
