Hello everybody,

I was wondering if anyone could give me feedback on my chart? It's really strange that FF hasn't given me a coverline with EWCM, good CP, a positive opk test, sore bbs and higher temps. I'm confused because I really thought I Oed around Friday or Saturday. I'm also now taking progesterone for the first time and wondering how on earth I'm s'posed to tell what are real pg symptoms vs imaginary vs progesterone symptoms. Eeeeeek. Any imput would be appreciated.

Thanks so much!

Hey Jenn,

I'm no expert by any means, but to me, looks like you may have "O"d on CD12. Have you played around with your chart----- like maybe taking your OPK results out, or changing the + you posted to somewhere different, like maybe CD11 or 12. I'd play around with it, and see if it gives you a cover line and "O" date when you change something, cause you're right, you've got good indications of "O" and you've had at least 3 high temps above cover line post "O". So, I don't know, but maybe try that. Your OPK results could have been slightly off. GL to you and HTH!!!!

Hi Jenn,

I agree with Lisa, looks like you Oed on CD12. I'm not really sure why they didnt give you a cover yet, you may want to send them a quick email. Were any of your temps taken at different times or did you have a fever? Your chart looks great, good luck to you :-)

Fertility Friend assigns "O" dates and coverlines differently than FAM/TCOYF. On a classic FAM/TCOYF chart, you would assume that you O'ed on CD12 because that's when the thermal shift occurred. (If you wanted to buy that Ovusoft software, I bet that's when the software would put your O date!)

However... and the reason why FF is probably not giving you an O date yet... you had the presence of EWCM even after that thermal shift, which is considered atypical. Your LH surge also wasn't until CD14, and you generally get that surge BEFORE ovulation, not after. It also looks like you had spotting on CD16, which may have been ovulation spotting. Give Fertility Friend a couple more days... I've got a feeling they *might* mark your O date as CD16.

Good luck to you!

I don't know about your chart...but I did want to tell you to expect to feel lots of IPS on progesterone. I took it the last two cycles, and was totally convinced I as PG. It was quite a disappointment. So...to avoid getting your hopes up and possibly being let down, try not to concentrate too very much on IPS/RPS. I know...easier said than done!

I hope you get your coverline soon!

GL!

Hello everyone,

THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH FOR HELPING ME OUT! I tried taking away my positive opk and I got a coverline at CD12, just like many of you said. I put it back however and I'm going to just wait and see what FF does tomorrow. I'm also going to assume I ovulated anyway and keep a positive outlook. :)

Anne, thanks for your input on the progesterone. I'm starting to feel the effects already. My bbs, well actually my nipples are killing me. They tingle and I'm starting to believe I can see them growing. My DH thinks I'm in a perpetual state of excitement and has been giggling about my new size. We were also just invited to dinner on Friday and he laughingly said it would be a great dinner conversation. Yeah, well..... I can totally see why I should just try and ignore the symptoms but it's definitely gonna be hard!

Thanks again to everybody. I really appreciate your advice and can't imagine going through this ttc thing on my own!

Hugs,
