I've recently started charting while TTC, though have charted on and off in the past, and I'm totally confused by this cycle. Normally my charts have me ovulating around day 17/18 with a positive LH test and clear symptoms and normal looking temps/chart (see 'Cycle 1' chart as an example). The current cycle I'm on has been weird from the get-go, however. I've felt 'off', my temp didn't drop until about 7 days into the cycle and my symptoms have been off. Looking at my chart retrospectively I think I could've ovulated on CD10, though I didn't have the symptoms of ovulation which are usually VERY obvious to me. I didn't do LH tests around that time as I thought I'd established I ovulate later, so that doesn't help in trying to interpret this chart. I've had PMS symptoms since around CD18 and thought that this may be an annovulatory or a short cycle and that I may get AF on CD25. This is something that's been happening for the last 3 and a bit years, a short 25 day cycle every year or so (I sometimes have longer, 35-38 days ones too, but mostly they're 28-31 days). However, I last had one of these 25 day ones in January so wasn't expecting another yet, plus today the temp dip looks like AF is imminent, meaning it'd arrive on CD22/23!
I've learned my lesson and will be doing LH tests earlier and wearing my Tempdrop every night now to get as much info as possible, but not knowing what's going on/feeling dysregulated is driving me nuts.
Oh, and I had some strange discharge on CD17. It was creamy and lots of it, so I thought ovulation was gearing up then (even though my discharge is normally sticky and EW rather than creamy) but it came to nothing.
Any thoughts and experiences welcome!
