When did I ovulate? (FF chart)

Hi everyone :)
Currently on cycle 9 or 10 of TTC... just wondered if anyone had any thoughts of when I ovulated this month?
FF has put it down as the Friday, however I think its more likely to be the Sunday as I got the peak static smiley on Saturday night?!
I also think the 37.1 reading was a bit of an anomaly!
There are lots of triangles on my chart because the first week of my cycle was over christmas period when I was off work and waking up later, whereas now I'm back at work and up 3 hours earlier than at the start of my cycle!
I'm still taking temp before I get out of bed but I know that may be skewing things slightly too :)

To be honest I think your irregular temping times have made it very hard to pinpoint it with confidence!

I think discard the 37.1 temp and that should move the crosshairs to CD15. That would be more in line with your peak OPK and you do have a dip there followed by two higher temps. Note that the crosshairs will only reappear tomorrow after a third high temp.

Thanks @juno231 :) I guess time will tell!

I agree with @Juno231, if you discard the oddly high temp at CD14, FF will move the crosshairs to CD15 which lines up with your advanced monitor results. In any case though, it looks like you have covered all bases, so much BD, go you!! 😄
Best of luck! ❤️

mrsrichy · 13/01/2021 13:18

Aww thank you so much @eloiseislost ! Yep FF has moved the cross hairs to CD15 now as expected. I'm so chuffed with ourselves, this is the first month we've been able to cover all possible days. Just a waiting game now 🤞

OP posts:
Juno231 · 14/01/2021 17:42

Woop best of luck to you! Let us know if it is indeed a BFP!

mrsrichy · 15/01/2021 08:13

Thank you @juno231 I will do 🙂 had quite a big temp dip this morning at 5dpo to below the cover line. Think it's too early for implantation, and probably more because I slept with my mouth open 😂🤦‍♀️

OP posts:
Juno231 · 15/01/2021 09:13

But could also be a secondary oestrogen surge! Quite common around that time and it makes the temp dip. It's what people often think are implantation dips but actually aren't correlated :)

mrsrichy · 19/01/2021 08:10

Ohh I hope so. I'm hoping today's temp dip is I due to implantation 🤞🤞

@juno231 @eloiseislost what do you think...? Top is 9DPO bottom is 11DPO (this morning)
I can see something faint, its darker in person. But not sure if it's an evap 🤷‍♀️ took AGES for the red to move along the test!!

Good morning @mrsrichy, I think I can see something on the second, like a pink shadow! I would get a FRER and use it tomorrow with FMU. I have everything crossed for you! 🤞🏼

mrsrichy · 21/01/2021 08:29

It's so faint! I've had a play around with the brightness in this one. I have EVERY brand of test in the house apart from a FRER. Will get one tomorrow. So nervous, really hope it's our month this month 🤞🤞

Ooh looking good- defo get a FRER!
Can I ask what your chart did in the end? Did you get a dip? And any symptoms different to your usual pms ones?

mrsrichy · 21/01/2021 08:37

Hi @emmgrem my chart hasnt been filling me with much confident tbh. I had 2 days of dips and it's gone up again very slightly today. I'm quite a restless sleeper though so not reading too much into it.
The only PMS symptoms I normally get are cramps about 12 hours before I come on. So I'm a bit early to compare yet.
I really hope this is our cycle as I'm almost ready to give up 10 months in!! 🤞

@mrsrichy I can definitely see a line on today’s set of pictures! Try again with another brand today but definitely get a FRER to see what it says! Everything crossed for you! 🤞🏼 Xx

mrsrichy · 21/01/2021 08:55

@pippitychippity ahhh! I didn't know if I was just seeing what I wanted to see! I'm trying not to get my hopes up, as I've had a slightly shadow on this brand before and it turned out to be negative in the end. Fingers crossed though 🤞🤞 xx

mrsrichy · 22/01/2021 09:06

12DPO today and absolutely nothing on a FRER this morning with FMU. Thinking the cheapie was just an evap now. Devastated, but onto the next cycle. I know I'm not technically out until AF on Sunday, but I feel like if it was a positive it would have shown on the FRER this morning 🤷‍♀️

OP posts:
PippityChippity · 22/01/2021 09:30

@mrsrichy Ahh that’s so frustrating! I’m sorry to hear that Flowers You aren’t out until AF has shown herself though - A friend of mine took something insane like 18 days after her missed period to get a BFP so there is still hope! Keeping my fX for you. Xx

mrsrichy · 22/01/2021 11:06

@pippitychippity aw thank you that has given me some hope xx

Morning ladies :) the plot thickens. I was due on yesterday and have had countless BFNs. My luteal phase is always 14 days exactly, so a bit confused now.
FF also moved my ovulation day forward 2 days this morning, which is a bit odd as it's now showing as before I got my positive OPK.
My temps are clearly showing a dip and I was fully expecting AF to arrive yesterday so not sure what's going on now!
I did a IC last night and couldnt see any hint of a line, however had a quick glance this morning and it has a very faint shadow. Although would have expected it to be a full line given I'm not late.
Sorry im completely rambling haha!!

@mrsrichy I feel your pain! I'm 11DPO and nothing on a FRER but I had a squinter yesterday at 10DPO that countless people were telling me was my BFP. Now I don't know whether it was an evap.
I'm the same as you with the ovulation date being before my peak OPK 🤷🏻‍♀️ so maybe FF is wrong and we ovulated later than it's saying!

CausingChaos2 · 25/01/2021 11:19

I’m by no means an expert but sorry to say that as your temp has gone below the cover line I would expect AF to turn up imminently. I hope I’m wrong but usually when pregnant the temp stays high due to progesterone.

mrsrichy · 25/01/2021 11:28

@emmgrem it's so confusing isn't it. It's just all a big waiting game!! Hopefully we should both have a definitive answer within the next few days either way.

@causingchaos2 I completely agree. I thought that as soon as it started to drop AF would arrive on 14DPO, but still nothing 🤷‍♀️ I do think I'm out this month, but just a waiting game! I haven't had any of my usual pre AF cramps yet. Maybe just an odd cycle!

OP posts:
mrsrichy · 26/01/2021 17:34

Just as an update, AF turned up this afternoon. AWFUL cramps! Feeling ok about it this month as was expecting to come on based on my temps. Onto the next month 🤞

OP posts:
CausingChaos2 · 26/01/2021 19:13

Sorry to hear AF arrived @mrsrichy wishing you the best of luck for next month. I feel the same way about seeing a temp drop.

Emmgrem · 26/01/2021 20:40

Aww sorry to hear that @mrsrichy it's horrible the uncertainty and that glimmer of hope being there isn't it. You'd rather just know either way!

I'm 12dpo and temps still high and my faint line that disappeared yesterday is back 🤨 cramps are gone too. No idea what this means. I think I need to wait until I'm late now but it's easier said than done!
