Wondering what's happening...

Hi all! Let me just start by congratulating everyone that has recieved BFP's already and wish everyone else loads and loads of luck with a heafty sprinking of baby dust!!!


I am now 5 DPO, and anxiously waiting. I was charting on FF, but I had to override them and get my line. They hadn't given me a CL yet, but due to temping and FM, I am 99.9% sure that I o'ed on day 15. Since then, I have been cramping like AF is coming, even though she's not due for atleast another week. Usually a week before she comes, my boobs get really swollen and sore. This time around, they're not, but my nipples are so sore that DH can't hardly touch w/o getting an evil eye. Also, for the past 6 months, when DH and I bd, we don't have any problems with natural lubrication. Since about 3 days ago, when we bd, it seems that I'm really dry...or atleast more dry than usual. It also feels like I'm much more "tighter". DH even comented on that. I know that inside, when checking my CP, I have noticed some change...like the tissue in there has built up or something. I can't describe it. Also, CP is usually lower and a lot more easy for me to reach. Here lately, it's been extremely high, to where I can barely reach it and medium soft. Also, yesterday when DD and I were in Walmart, I got really dizzy like to where I felt I was about to fall. I felt a sharp pain that felt like it was just about where my pubic bone is located, and I got this hot flash of sorts. It lasted a good 10 mins. I haven't had that in a long time. I just don't know. I guess that I'll find out in a week or so. I've already taken a test, not really expecting to see a + but hoping to if you know what I mean. I actually think that I've officially gone crazy now! -lol- What do y'all think? I've pasted my chart below. The blue coverline is there just 'cause I did an override since they hadn't "detected" ovulation. But, looking at my chart, it seems pretty obvious when O took place. Anyway...what do y'all thinK? Thanks for any input you can offer!

GM Christie...

Sorry, but I don't know that I really agree with your O... Just doesn't look right.

If CP is extrememly high right now, that means you're fertile... And I think you're coverline should be higher.. which doesn't give you three days of high temps after O... Yet your CM does look good around when you think you O'd...

I'm just not sure..

Good luck, and I hope you get some more responses to this question..

Hi Christie,

I am certainly not an expert at charting, in fact I just started doing it myself this cycle. I have to agree with the last poster that your coverline seems to low. I think that it might be worth creating another chart without the override and see what happens in the next couple of days. I'd be willing to bet that your temps will go up again and FF will give you a later o date, like between cd 16 and 18. Your chances look great for this month given that you have been bd'ing a lot in your fertile period.


That's just my opinion though. I hope you get more replies from people with more experience charting than me.

Good luck and may this be your month to get a BFP!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you guys for answering my questions. Now that I really look at it...and compared with several other charts, my CL did look rather low. So, I took off the override. I figured that surely I should get an actual CL from FF...sooner or later. -s- I was just so sure 'cause lots of physical symptoms looked positive to O. Ah well...I suppose only time will tell. Thank y'all again! -s-

Lots of luck and baby dust y'alls way!!!
