I suggest you start by doing the free charting course fertility friend offer. They send you one part each day through to your email. It will help you understand charting a bit better.
I will try answering your questions for you.
Firstly you ned to chart at roughly the same time everyday, before you get out of bed. I usually take my temp at 6am as I know Shelby will wake up anywhere between 6 and 7. It is very important you take your temp before doing any activty or eating/drinking as you want your basal body temp. You may find that you might have difficulty taking your temp at the same time each day with another young un, but as long a you have had at least 3 hours of solid sleep you will be fine.
So, if you normally take your temp at 6am and bubs wakes at 4.30 for a feed and you know you wont get another 3 hours sleep, take your temp then. Hopefully I have explained that simply.
You will probably find that because your temps weren't taken regularly at the same time, you wouldn't get such an obvious thermal shift, in all honesty I can't say I can see ovulation on your chart.
It is also possible to get several patches of EWCM during your cycle, sometimes you can get it several days after ovulation. It is also possible to get fertile cervical mucous and still not ovulate. As far as OPK's go, you ned to take one everyday until you get a positive, being the test line is as dark or darker than the control line. A faint line is a negative that's why there is no option for faint on FF.
Umm, have I answered l your questions??? If you need anymore help, please ask away I will try and answer what I can and hopefully others can help as well.
