I got a + OPK on Friday evening, followed by a lot of O-cramping and a - OPK on Saturday. I was SURE that I ovulated on Saturday (I typically ovulate the day of, or the day after I get a positive OPK). When I took my temp on Sunday (what I thought was 1 DPO), my temp had taken a huge, 1 degree DIP rather than a rise that you would expect after ovulation.

Sunday's temp dip has me confused. I wonder if it could be an ovulation dip (meaning I likely ovulated on Sunday instead of Saturday) or a fallback rise??


I could use some chart stalkers and your thoughts, thanks!!

Do any of you have similar chart patterns?

It definitely looks like an ovulation dip. It's not uncommon to O a couple days after a +OPK. I bet tomorrow's temp will give you the CH's to confirm.

Thanks, just when I think I have my body figured out (typically ovulating the day of or day after a + OPK) then it switches things up on me! Do you think we covered the BDing?

Oh yeah, you timed it perfectly! Glad you kept BD'ing after you normally O since it looks like you O'd a day later than anticipated. GL!!

I sure hope so! I know, we got lucky there. We were trying to only BD every other day, but getting a + OPK early really threw me off and messed up our "plan of attack". I hope we still had a good supply of fresh swimmers waiting on that egg! Thanks for the dust, we need it!

Soooo...FF gave me my CH today, but they weren't on Saturday or Sunday, they were on Friday??! I guess we covered the BDing either way, but as far as keeping track of my LP, I'd like to have a better idea of when I actually ovulated. I wonder how often FF is wrong/off?
