Can you please look at my chart? Shouldn't I have seen the red crosshairs by now? I'm confused!

Even though you've had a pos OPK and EWCM, you really haven't seen a significant thermal shift yet. Usually FF won't give you CH until after a few definitely higher temps than pre-O. Some people have a gradual shift upwards, and you may, too. Wait a few days and once your temps start increasing it's likely FF will give you CH.

Thanks for the input...I'm going to bump this up to see if anyone else has any opinions.

Thanks. Because this is my first cycle charting, I'm a little unclear as to what it takes to get the CHs. I also don't really understand what they mean by "three high temps". To me, it looks like CD 19, 20 and 21 are all higher than the previous week. They want them to be significantly higher?

I had a cycle like this with a slow rise after O. You are missing one temp

Thanks for that. My next question was going to be how long after O does FF usually give you CH. I see you said 10 days...wow, that's a long time. I expected it a few days later. As for the BDing...I took another OPK last night and it was neg. so we took a break, as we are both exhausted. I hope that last night and the night before weren't potentially fertile days.

I think next cycle I'll have a much better idea of what I'm doing. This cycle was kind of a mess, but hey, I'm still learning, right?
