Well, the two charts are saying that I O'd on CD13.

I had a HUGE temp dip this morning (5DPO). I typically have a 32 day cycle, and one more calendar said today / tomorrow is supposed to be golden for O. So if I didn't O on CD13, and I O today, what was that on CD13? Why the dip and temp increase?

This is all so confusing!

I'm not 100% sure, but FF says this:

"The coverline carries no physiological meaning. It is just a visual tool to help you see your ovulation pattern. Whether or not your temperature rises or falls below this line does not necessarily indicate anything significant. Individual temperatures can fluctuate at any time of the cycle, for both hormonal or non-hormonal reasons. A single dropped temperature usually doesn't mean much. You want to look at "the big picture" and see a pattern of temperatures over time. As long as you can see a biphasic pattern and a trend towards elevated temperatures after ovulation, there is no need to worry about a single dropped temperature or two."

ITA and I think you already Oed.

Looking at your chart, I don't see a clear biphasic pattern yet. It's normal for your temps to dip and rise. What you're really looking for is a sustained temperature rise that stays above the majority of your other temps. One spiked temperature or one dip is basically meaningless. Like the quote says, what you're looking for is a sustained temperature rise creating a biphasic pattern. I think you'll o in the next few days, so get bd'ing!
