BBT chart help please

[Littlebee1990]

I had a CP at 5+3 last month and now my cycle is all out of sync. I have only been temping 2 months and I’m honestly clueless at what the below is telling me.. I’ve been using OPKs twice a day and had high readings since CD11 and 2 peak readings a few days apart. Has anyone ever experienced similar? FF has no idea when ovulation occurred and Femometer has changed about 3 times and after putting my temp in this morning has changed my ovulation from CD14 to CD25.

I have no idea when to expect AF because one app says 27th July, another says 6th August and another says 9th August.

Any advice or thoughts would be hugely appreciated. Thank you x

Oops hadn't finished writing before I posted that last one! Are you both going to keep temping throughout or was it just to confirm ov? @Tink2019 @Juno231

@ARIO I'm tracking throughout - I'd like the complete picture purely out of enjoyment of collating data lol. You?

@Juno231 Hi.. Me again lol. AF due today but temp on the rise. Don't think I'm pregnant due to the weird spotting I had throughout my cycle this month. Do you think it's possible I actually ovulated CD25 instead of CD22 meaning I'm only 11 DPO instead of 14 and that would explain why my temp hasn't gone down yet?

@stabal well FF has given you dotted crosshairs which means it's not sure if CD22 is correct either. Did you have any more EWCM/did you use any OPKs past CD22? I could kinda be either, as a fallback rise on 3DPO isn't unusual. I think the timing of AF's arrival will be the only thing able to confirm it - how long is your LP normally?

@Juno231 I'm not a tester, I just wait for AF to rock up, although I did test last cycle because we wanted to go to the pub once they'd opened and I was getting close to AF. When will you start testing?

@ARIO I keep charting as I too like having full data! But I do end up analysing every little drop and rise so might get my husband to write down my temps each morning then I'll add to my apps when AF gets here...he wasn't thrilled when I suggested this to him 😂

@Tink2019 haha that describes me too! I couldn't imagine NOT temping for the rest of the cycle.

I want to hold off testing until 11DPO/aka Thurs next week. We're going away to the beach for the long weekend with friends and would want to know whether I can drink or not! Am going to try for a zen TWW, normally I get a bit impatient in the second week.

@Juno231 EWCM has been off and on between being watery. Like it's back today and a little white. I have PCOS so I take the OPKs which a pinch of salt so once I thought I ovulated I didn't do anymore. I did have a peak reading on CD21 but like I say I don't religiously count that. My luteal phase is normally a little longer but it was 13 days last cycle after my miscarriage. Such a weird waiting game isn't it!

Morning all! How is everyone today? My temp has creeped up a tiny bit but FF still not identified ov date yet. I'm going with I'm 2dpo based on the other symptoms and opks. Hope everyone is OK x

Also, I think inaccuracies are sooo common with bbt. This morning I took my temp twice 3 minutes apart (just laid there for 3 mins and didn't do anything) and my temp went from 36.35 to 36.47! Just goes to show we definitely need to look at averages and the overall picture rather than each individual day and temp xx

@ario you're right - it's def a trend thing. Also depends on the thermometer. I will say though that charts where the woman temps using her hooha (on a work laptop so don't want to use the V-word) are muuuuuch smoother. Way more accurate that way.

FF won't confirm until it's been 3 high temps so fingers crossed it will give you a solid crosshair tomorrow!

Hooha haha! Yes I've heard that can be more accurate! Don't think I can bring myself to do that. It's annoying that the thermometers beep... Can't do it subtly haha. X

@ario ha my OH has yet to wake from the beeps! He's usually a corpse at 6am so I could get away with anything then.

@Juno231 @ARIO @Littlebee1990 @Stabal how are you all doing ladies? I'm 7dpo now and had a bit of a drop in temp today, but still way above the cover line, so putting it down to a very unsettled 💤

Hey all! FF have finally given me crosslines. I'm just 3dpo and I KNOW it's far too early but having really bad back ache this morning. Maybe I just slept awkwardly haha.

@Tink2019 dare I say.. Implantation dip? Its about the right time. Fingers crossed!!

@ARIO @Tink2019 6-9dpo is perfect timing for a secondary oestrogen surge which causes a dip in temp so sounds like you've got a healthy chart going. I'm afraid implantation dips are a bit of a myth when it comes to BBT!

My temp today was in line with the others but should probably be discarded as my OH put my thermometer away without me knowing, so I had to get up this morning to find it before taking my temp 😅. Tempted to leave it in though!

@Tink2019 AF arrived the next day after posting so I'm CD3 here. I'm glad it came as I'd spotted all that cycle and thought something was messed up after my miscarriage, I feel a bit more positive going into this one and hoping the same spotting doesn't happen again! 🤞 for you!

Morning Ladies! I have no idea if my chart looks good or not tbh 🤣 9DPO.. attached for all of you to review and comment haha.
Any thoughts?

@ARIO Yey to the crosshairs! I'm trying not to symptom spot because I get so many each month which are just standard for me before AF arrives. It's hard not to though!

@Stabal Sounds like you're ready for this cycle - it's pants when AF arrived but when you know you're out you just want it to arrive so you an move on to the next cycle. Hopefully this one there's no spotting.

@Juno231 Ooo I didn't know that about a second eostrogen surge! I'd definitely leave that temp in if I was you as, like you said, temps are in line with the others x

@Littlebee1990 temps are still high so that's good. @Juno231 may be able to shed some more light though x

@Juno231 helppppp...what is going on with my temp?! Plummeted even more today below cover line! If AF comes now that's a very short luteal phase, normally AF comes at 13dpo!

@Juno231 try not to panic. Remember it's the bigger picture you need and it could easily go back up again tomorrow. Its usual to have dips here and there and there are so many factors that can influence it.

@Tink2019 super normal still, don't worry! I've even attached an example chart with the same kind of dip that ended in pregnancy. I see these charts all the time :)

Here's my chart for today - temp went up again so I've got my fingers crossed for a triphasic chart maybe this cycle.

Thanks @Juno231 that makes me feel better, will just have to see what happens tomorrow - feeling very crampy though too so that's not helping. Your chart looks great! Fingers crossed for you 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

@Juno231 You chart looks great! Here’s mine.. I also think I’ve got a Vvvvvvvfl but my partner can’t see it so maybe I’m just wishful thinking
