Hi All,

I hope someone out there can help shed some light.

I have been TTC #2 for 5 months now and BBT charting for 4 months. With this cycle and a couple of others, I have noticed that there is no clearly defined thermal shift to depict ovulation. I have had a couple of slow rises in the first half of my cycle and I am finding this so confusing and annoying and its really beginning to bug me cause I dont know when I have actually ovulated, if at all, and the last three cycles I have been getting negative OPK tests. On top of that, I dont get any EWCM, just creamy so cant rely on that for signs, but I do get sore sore boobs and nipples the days around and after ovulation (so about the TMI), but didn't feel even that last cycle. With this cycle month I have had sensitive nipples/sore boobs starting from 4 April till 10 April, but my boobs are still a little swollen and I had a little bit of cramps on 3 April, but on the 6 April I had cramps for most of the afternoon and they felt like light period cramps.

Here is a link to my chart, so you know what I am going on about (hope it works).

I am doing acupuncture and traditional chinese medicine to help balance things out and the Acupuncturists says I ovulated on Day 13 (4 April), yet Fertilityfriend.com suggests I ovulated on Day 16 (7 April).

Can you please look at my chart and tell me what do you all think of when ovulation could have happened? I would greatly appreciate your thoughts.

Im concerned and probably know, that I have wasted yet another month.

P.S. I should clarify a couple of things with teh chart. The EWCM I have noted is actually sperm friendly lubricant (Pre-seed) and the temp jumps you see on Days 5, 8 & 9 is because I was unwell and not sleeping properly.

Thanks!
