I really don't think this "charting" thing is for me. I mean, ever since I started this charting thing, I found that I've been more stressed out then usual. Always worrying about what my temps would be each morning.

Anyway, my chart was looking pretty good and promising when I entered my temp on April 5th. According to the chart, it stated that I had O'd on CD27 (april 2). But then this morning, my temp was @ 97.7 F , which is just below my coverline of 97.8. When I entered today's temp, my chart changed!! It now says that I didn't O yet. I've attached my chart with today's temp for you see what I mean. But if I entered a temp of 97.8, it still shows that I had O'd.

Should I be concerned about it?? I just hope my temp goes back up tomorow. Anyone else had dips like this at 4dpo? Could it be an implantation dip? Just how accurate is this FertilityFriend charting reader?

You chart does not yet look ovulatory, you need 3 temperatures at least 0.1 degrees higher than the previous six.

Fertility Friend is notorious for false interpretations - it's best to learn to interpret your charts yourself, but just use Fertility Friend as a tool for storing your information. Perhaps it would help to take a class or meet with an instructor. Would you be interested in that?

If charting is stressing you out, by all means - stop! All you need to know is that if you feel wet or slippery, go BD. Beyond that, charting is good if it's helping you. If it's stressing you out, quit! Stress and fertility are NOT friends. Not a bit. Good luck!

I only started charting this cycle because my OB had advised me to, since we're in the beginning stages of seeking help in getting pregnant. Before this, I did just use the CM as signs of ovulation.

It doesn't look like you O'd yet to me either. I would try and hang in there and bring these charts to your OB.

Yeah, I'm thinking FF's O interpretation on your chart is a bit sketchy. I guess you'll know more over the next couple of days as those temps come in, but it is looking like it could still be anovulatory -- do you usually ovulate? The dip is probably too early to be implantation if you did in fact O on cd27 -- implantation dips generally occur from day 7-10 past O (if at all).

DH and I are still trying to BD as much as possbile (every other day), so if it doesn't look like I O'd yet, then maybe we'll catch it soon.

But I have a feeling I did O though because I feel post O cramps.
