Is it possible to chart while bfing? I am currently bfing my almost 10 month old son. AF hasn't yet showed, so I was wondering if it was possible to chart and maybe predict (in a way) when AF will be here?

You can definitely chart while bfing. Your temps might be a little off if you are getting up in the middle of the night, but it could at least give you an idea. It might make sense to pay attention to your CM...if you know when you ovulate, that would help you predict when AF might come. Good luck!
I was in the exact same situation a year ago, and I did chart my temps and CM for about a month before I decided to wean. Within a week of weaning, I was able to see that I ovulated and when my temp went down, I knew my first post-partum AF was on her way. It was kinda cool that I didn't get taken by surprise.
