How does FF and TCOYF differ?? The reason I am asking is because FF shows that I O'd on CD14 but TCOYF says CD1 because of temp hick. I got a + OPK on CD14.

Any help would be great! As this is my 4th cycle TTC#3 and I am starting to get disapointed each month with the - HPT that I get.

FF tends to rely more on the temps and has a higher incidence of false interpretation - usually saying ovulation has occurred when it hasn't yet. TCOYF tends to take all the fertility signs into consideration and has fewer false interpretations. I wonder if something is altered on your settings with TCOYF to make it say CD1?

It looks like CD16 was the closest day to ovulation to me.

Hi Thanks!

I realized I had a typo...TCOYF says CD16 and I personally think CD15, but would be okay with CD16 too. I just think FF is wrong for some reason this cycle. Maybe cause I want to have a little hope on my timing! lol

What do you think?

Well in that case I completely agree with TCOYF. The last day of fertile slippery CM is the day closest to ovulation - which is CD16 for you. That jives with your temps and your OPK, because ovulation usually doesn't occur until a day or two after the positive.

As long as you BD'd at least once from CD12-19, you've got a chance!

Hi-

This is my chart in TCOYF When did I O cause... - TCOYF my temp was off on CD15 cause I was running a fever. You can also see our dtd schedule too. I didn't get EWCM this cycle because of the supplements and diet I am doing to sway girl, as I usually get EWCM day of or day before O.

I appreciate all you help as I am all confused
