Charting problems--please help!

This is only my second cycle charting, but I don't understand. I've tracked my CM for four cycles before, and always estimated my O on CD 12. But my temps have been all over the place for the last few days, especially the jump on CD 11. There is a possibility that I had a touch of a cold on CD 10, but it never came to anything and I didn't think it should be affecting my temps for two days! I've still had EWCM for the past 3 days (BD just in case) but I appreciate any ideas on what's going on?

AJ,

It is just too early to tell right now. It looks like your CM dried up when you ovulated last cycle (for some women it doesn't), so I would assume that you still haven't O'd yet. Even if you have O'd on day 12 for the last 4 cycles, it doesn't mean you O'd on day 12 this cycle. Every cycle is different, although you can usually see patterns by them. Your ovulation could be delayed for a number of reasons, maybe because of your "touch of cold." I would keep BDing as long as you have the EWCM and just keep an eye on your temps to see if they stay elevated or not.

Good luck this cycle!
