ARGH, can't figure this out!

Arrgh! So after all the lovely OPK stuff, I still don't have a very good idea of what is going on. I got a strong positive on Thursday, BD'd thinking that I would O on Friday. But Friday morning my temp was already up, suggesting that O had already happened. And I definitely had O pains Friday, and a negative OPK. Then this morning, my temp was back down! And the most frustrating part is that I cannot for the life of me wake up at a consistent time in the morning, so I don't know if my temps are off just because of that, and which one I should believe! And the EXACT same thing happened last month, including waking up too early and not being able to go back to sleep. So now I don't know if I o'd yet, or if I screwed things up by not BD'ing Friday night too, just in case (DH and I were just too tired). I really hate temping, but my ob-gyn wants 3 months of charts.
Any body have any insight? I would really appreciate it!

I agree with Tami. Get rid of that cd8 temp and over the next day or two you should get your coverline. I had to do the same thing with one of my temps this month. Looking at your chart, I think you got the BD covered.. CD 16 looks like the day to me :)
Keep us posted!

PS. If I don't wake up at 5am to temp, my two furry alarm clocks wake me up by walking all over me. Got a cat?? hehe

((((((((((((HUGS)))))))))))) I am so sorry that you are feeling frustrated these days.
I am sending you lots of~*~*~*~*~~*~strength vibes ~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~
I just started temping myself so I can't offer too much in the way of advice on your chart~although I have to say that your bd timing looks great! I was wondering how much variation there is in your wake up times. I can't seem to get up at exactly the same time every day either but I think that as long as it's within a 30min range it's probably okay, right? Have you used the temp corrector feature on FF? I used it once when I couldn't wait to get up to pee very early in the morning. I temped before getting up and went back to sleep for about three hours and took my temp again. Entering the two temps and times FF gave me a temp corrected for what would have been around my regular wake up time and it was right in line...I find temping a pain too, but I also find it eases my mind to see what's happening with my body.
I think your chart looks great so far! I really, really hope this is the cycle for you!!! I have been thinking of you and sending lots of positve vibes your way ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

In the end, DH and I BD'd midday today, just in case. He is being so sweet and I feel bad that he has to put up with neurotic old me! Oh well, I really think I did O on Friday, and we have been pretty good about the bd'ing. I've just seen so many months go by with no pg that I feel like any mistake of timing can mess things up.
Thanks for being so encouraging. I guess you just have to get to a point where you say "Sc--w it" and not let it get to you.
Julie, thanks for your comments. I've been meaning to email you, but things got crazy aroung work with students returning. I will be in touch, and I hope everything to do with grad school is going well.
