Hi all. :)
I'm fairly new and was wondering if someone could please look at my FF chart and tell me when you think i may have o'd? My cycle is usually around 32 days.
My temps are taken at the same time every day, and im not taking any meds.
Any opinions or comments are very very much appreciated.
TIA. :D
Hi Aprilstar, from your chart I think you've o'd early, maybe day 6 or 7. The length of time after ovulation and before your AF comes is almost always 14 days for everyone. The thing that changes cycle lengths for us women folk is the day of ovulation. So if you O later than day 14 you'll have a longer cycle and if you O earlier than day 14 you'll have a shorter one. The text book 28 day cycle is based on ovulation day of 14 and 14 days post O making the magic 28 days.
If AF doesn't arrive in the next day or so and your temps stay up I'd try a HPT and hopefully you'll be looking at a BFP!
If you are interested more in natural fertility management (NFM) both for conception and contraception there is a great book available called Natural Fertility by Francesca Naish. We've used NFM for the last 5 years both to concieve our bubs and not to conceive. Our first was conceived after 3 cycles and our second on the first cycle. It's a great drug free method of contraception that really does work.
Good luck with your test, I hope you get the result you're hoping for.
Hi Aprilstar,
Sorry to add to your confusion, but I actually think you've O'd on day 20, depending on what your next temp reading is. If it remains as high as the last two then I'd definately say day 20 is O day. You have to look for three consecutive temps that are higher than the previous 6. If you go into FF and enter a mock temp reading for tomorrow as 36.4 or higher you'd probably find it will draw the lines to indicate ovulation. A day 20 O would also be in line with your long cyles, 20 + 14, being not far off 32 - give and take.
That's what I think anyway.
Sorry to have a different interpretation to add to your confusion.
Hope someone else can add to this for you.

Hi Aprilstar,
I am thinking along the same lines as Jules...and if your temp stays up or even goes up tomorrow that FF will put ovulation at Day 20.
Good luck with everything.

Thankyou all for your replies.
Juleswa, your answer didn't add to my confusion it cleared everything up and made me understand my chart a hell of a lot better. Today i've gotten the crosshairs and you were spot on!! You've made it so much easier for me. Thanks again. From the looks of my chart now, i doubt we are pregnant this month, but that's ok, i've been given the heads up for next month.
