Can any chart pros help?

[Fifi1086]

Hey everyone! I'm cd13 today, expecting to ovulate probably next few days. I had a temp spike this morning however my cb advanced opk is still only showing flashing smiley and ICs aren't strong. I had quite strong cramps last night and some ewcm last two days.

Does this chart look like I might be ovulating? I had a chemical last cycle and a long bleed so as you can see the temps for the first week are crazy! Any insight is much appreciated!!

It's too early to tell as it could be a one off but atm it does look like yesterday could have been ovulation. Any chance you missed your peak on the ICs? I've never used CB but I swear people test in the afternoon as well once they get a blinking smiley as they otherwise miss their peak.

I agree that it looks like you ovulated yesterday!
I always had a super short surge and missed my peak almost every month! Currently 32 weeks pregnant... my point being, don't solely rely on the OPK sticks. As long as you have sex every other day around your suspected ovulation date then you will hopefully catch. Good luck!

I was bleeding all the way to CD9 so we did the last 3 nights. Funny story about the cb opk 🤦🏼‍♀️ I dropped it in the sink yday morning so had to start a new one and as we know they start from blank so I had one blank then one flashing smiley yday afternoon, hard to know how accurate that is given the situation 😂 ICs barely changed tho, slightly stronger yday aft but not a clear positive!

I was really hoping this month I'd be able to pinpoint exactly when I ovulated so I could count my dpo!!

Sorry just to show as well, the top opk was yday aft and the bottom one is today. Would that suggest I missed my surge?

Impossible to say with the ICs I think but just wanted to double check when you test with them and how often?

Morning and afternoon usually! Never in the evening! Just the cramps last night were so strong then temp spike today, I'm driving myself mad because if I just went by my body I'd say yeah I ovulated last night, but both cb and IC don't reflect that

@Juno231 I hope you don't mind me asking, I know you're a bit of a pro with charts. I've had 8 days of flashing smileys now and my lh strips are getting fainter and fainter. From looking at my chart, does it look like I ovulated around cd10 or 11? I've discarded my temp from cd13 as you can see cos I was unwell the night before and didn't sleep. I just think I am moving further away from ovulation now rather than closer to it, but FF didn't confirm it 🤷🏻‍♀️

@Fifi1086 hello! sorry your body is messing you about! I'm afraid my advice is to wait and see. It is very possible that you ovulated on CD11 but your continued EWCM does not support that. Are you sure it was EWCM and not leftover swimmers? EWCM after suspected O would usually prevent FF from adding crosshairs.

If you're using ICs then remember to use the -/+ opk section and not the advanced "Mon" opks as that refers to dual hormone opks and can be skewing your eventual crosshairs.

Thank you so much @Juno231 I am still having ewcm almost every day but one! I am using advanced cb opk which are reading high every day but no peak which is driving me mad! I'll keep opking and temping but I'm so confused 🙈

@Fifi1086 you're definitely having an odd cycle this time! I'm hoping it'll all become clearer soon before OH dies from exhaustion!
