Another charting question....

[lyssa1985]

I need help!  Look at my chart...did I ovulate this month?  If so, what date?  Charting is so confusing.  I just got off the pill last month, so I know some of my temps will be sporadic.  Help me understand what I'm looking at Thank you!

I think I'd probably put your O at CD 17, with a dip a few days after. Not all that uncommon.

Is your cycle still going? If so, when do you expect AF? My first cycle off BCP was really wonky. I wasn't temping but it was like 35+ days (which has never been normal for me). Now I'm regular and on a 24-25 day cycle.

Looks like O on CD 12 or CD 17 (maybe even CD 19). Was the OPK a definite positive? Are you using the wondfo ones? Those need to be solid. Based on the number of dips, your body may have geared up to O a few times. Don't sweat the first cycle off BCP.

I had my period twice last month.  But I'm expecting AF the 15th, if it goes off of the last time I had it.  I just bought OPK's off of Amazon, and I only used it that one day...I'm still trying to get used to temping  I feel like I O'd a lot this month! Ha!

Keep temping for the data, but I'd definitely put more focus on the next cycle. I would probably start using the OPKs around CD 6 next cycle. I know that sounds early but you might be like me and have a long cycle off BCP and snap back to a short one. It would be a shame to miss your window b/c you were expecting a long cycle and later O.

Thanks for the advice ladies!!

I'd say CD17. I often have a little dip before my temps go back up and stay up, so I don't thing that's unusual. Keep up with the temping and by the end of your cycle things should be more clear.

I'd day CD 19.

I agree with Lola, but since you just got off BC, it's too unpredictable at this point in time.
