103dcd Ovulation Charts

This is my 2nd month charting. My first month looked similar to this until we get to day 20ish...I ovulated on CD 21 last time (typical for me since my son was born) and there was a definite increase in temp. But this cycle I have no idea. I've also been using OPK's (per doctor's instruction) and I had some early nearly positives, lately some negatives and now today I had this:

This is the darkest I've had. I am so confused!! I have NEVER ovulated this late. I was ready to just say I hadn't ovulated. I have a follow-up with my doctor on March 18. He has already checked my hormone levels and everything was normal. I have no weird symptoms (cramps, long periods)--just longer cycles. ??????? I guess I'll be checking CM today but I doubt I'll get EWCM this late in the game!

Thanks for reading!

UPDATE: This morning at 9:30 and also 12:30 pm, I got two opks that were WAY POSITIVE. I mean, the test line was actually darker than the control! I took pics which I can post later. So confusing, this cycle!! DH and I BD last night, and will again today. Thanks for your help ladies!

Here is my pic from Sunday morning:

And a few minutes after I post I go to the bathroom and get what appears to be EWCM. I give up!!!

It looks like you are getting close to Oing, just not there yet. Hopefully you'll get a nice dark positive soon. I'd start bding because you look like you are getting close.

With me, when I would get a darker line like that, it would only be a matter of hours before I'd get a really dark line (positive) on the OPKs. If I didn't use an OPK every two hours or so, I'd miss the positive.
I also had to change the battery in my thermometer - even though it was brand new - because they can sit for a long time on the shelves of warehouses and stores. Once I put in a new battery, I was able to clearly see when I'd ovulate. It's worth a shot - the batteries are only a few dollars.
Hope this helps. Good luck and lots of baby dust to you!!
