Hi, I am new to charting and awfully confused.. My last chart was only a 14 day cycle so obviously I didn't ovulate, but this chart I am up to day 22 and have no idea if I have ovulated or not.. I don't normally record my CM on the days we have DTD.. Also sometimes I am confused about recording CM as sometimes it looks eggwhite, but is not stretchy. Should I mark it as creamy?? (Sorry TMI). And the 1st OPK on the chart although I put it as negative, it COULD have been positive as there was 2 lines but it was hard to tell if they were the same darkness or not.. Here is my chart
It says ovulation hasn't been detected.. I know I should be more patient but I am really anxious to know if I have O'd or not and if there is a slight chance I could be UTD.. What do you think?? I know my post is a bit all over the shop, I am just so CONFUSED!!

: Typo
I am not sure if I have fixed it.. I tried to add my chart to the gallery but it wouldn't let me as it is incomplete.. I don't even know if I can post the link for you to look at an incomplete chart?? Thanks for trying anyway If you can you can, if not well, you can't
You should be able to... I can't remember by FF account details to log in... but from memory there is a chart tab or home page tab and it has the link to the chart in there (even if it is not a complete chart) if that doesn't work, let me know and I will have a further hunt for my FF log on etc
This might be it.. http://www.fertilityfriend.com/ttc/i...hp?interface=0 if not I have no idea.. I will have another look tomorrow if the link still doesn't work.. I am way too frustrated Also I am not a VIP member, does that make a difference?
I was able to post my chart here without being a VIP member. It was awhile ago, but i think you get the link address under the 'Sharing" tab on the left hand side.
I'd say you haven't ovulated yet, though you do have lots of open dots so that might be affecting your chart.
As for how you chart your CM. Creamy is described like hand cream. Is your CM closer to hand cream or eggwhite regardless of stretch? Without the stretch issue, which would you say? Record that
The open dots are generally if you are waking at a different time than normal. Basically you have an hour window for your temp to be accurate. If you normally wake at 7am, you can enter your temp between 6.30-7.30, but if the time is outside those then it will give you an open dot. Also other info you enter might affect the dots, it's usually if you have been drinking, have said you're sleep deprived or had an illness.
That is interesting because I went back over my times and I normally do my temp between 5 and 6am.. a couple of times I have taken it later, but I normally do it between 5 and 6.. Oh well, I guess I just have to be patient..
Hi, I am back again with more questions.. FF has indicated ovulation on day 24.. Problem is we haven't DTD since the morning of day 21.. I know it's still possible to get pregnant, but all the successful charts I have looked at either don't display the days they DTD or it was no more than 2 days before.. What do you think???? I can't believe O has been detected so late.. That means another 2wks to find out if I am UTD!!!! I am SO IMPATIENT I WANT IT NOW!!! Lol
ETA: I have started setting my alarm for 5am, so my times are consistant now (Unless I wake earlier to pee).. Hoping that make a difference with my next chart..
