I am confused and trying to understand my chart. What does it mean on the calender when the dates turn green or pink? On the graph, on the CM line, there are some dates that are green as well, but they dont correspond. Are the CM line green dates the more fertile days?

The link you posted takes me to the login, and not your chart.

Generally, the green box over the CM means that it is fertile CM. Pink usually is when you are spotting or bleeding, if I remember correctly.

Thanks, that makes sense.

I was able to get a link to my chart in my siggy after giving up on the link... lol

Your link in your siggy still takes me to the log in. When you are logged into your chart, up at the top, there are multiple drop down menus. Hover over the one that says "sharing", then click "get code". Copy and paste the BBcode that it gives you and that should link directly to YOUR chart. HTH!

yes yes and yes... Those are what the red and green are and that is how you share it!

Thank you ladies! I think I've finally gotten it right!! And today when I opened it, I have dotted crosshairs for the first time!

At this point, all CM and/or spotting should be regarded as potentially fertile. But the green on the chart means that is the most fertile CM.

I was assuming all the spotting was from having my mirena removed on nov 22nd, when I felt I was ovulating (due to the crazy EW CM that day and, tmi, on the mirena when she took it out), but I could easily be wrong! I expect it to not make sense for a cycle or so.

i didnt realiùze you just had mirena out

[ShawnaCAN]

Yup, it could be from that - but at first, you would err on the side of caution just in case the spotting is related to rising estrogen. The spotting also indicates that your cervix is at least a little bit open (or else how would the blood exit the uterus), which means sperm can enter the cervix. That's also why it's considered a sign of potential fertility.

Makes sense, thank you.

Today when I added my temp, it removed the crosshairs... back to waiting some more...

I had the mirena removal marked originally but it was deleted when it defaulted to the free version of the chart.
