    I've tried having a look for you but either my internet connection is doing something weird or there is something wrong with FF because it just keeps coming up with a blank page. I will have a look a bit later and see if it is working then

    ArrghhH! Sorry about this... and I thought I was technologically savvy
    I will figure out how to make sure you can see MY chart (not yours which you are prob sick of looking at anyway!)
    stay tuned, thanks for your patience x

    Hun, when you're looking at your calendar, just above the date is a button that says: Home page set up. Click on that and in the first box, under the heading Your Charting Home Page Web Address: is a link... copy and paste that and it should take us to your chart!

    Hooray!!! Your link worked

    Had a quick look at your chart and I really don't think you have ovulated yet. EWCM and positive OPKs aren't a sure fire guarantee that ovulation has happened, the biggest indicator is a sustained rise in temp. You are still only mid cycle so you may still ovulate. Just keep temping and checking all your other signs and charting. It is frustrating, waiting to ovulate - my cycles have always been incredibly long, but charting is reliable.

    How long are your normal cycles? Do you normally ovulate around the same day each month?

    Hooray!
    I usually have 28/29 day cycle and O at around day 14/15. I am wondering if perhaps I am not going to ovulate this month at all... I have been more stressed than usual
    Having said that... I have only been charting for a couple of months, so maybe it will be a longer cycle with late O. I *did* used to have longer cycles, but have tried hard to get them back to a more regular 28 day pattern. I'll keep charting anyway of course!
    Thanks JM x

    If you have been stressed, ovulation can be delayed and might just be a little late this month. The second half of your cycle is usually only 10 - 16 days long (with most women averaging around 12 days) so it might still happen in the next few days.

    Hoping you catch an egg sometime soon!

    Glad it worked for you

    I agree with Just Me, doesn't look like you've O'd yet.

    Stress will definitely delay ovulation... my usual O day is around CD17-20. A couple of cycles ago, I was so stressed I didn't O until CD40!!

    Good luck hun, I hope you catch the eggie xo

    Thanks Ladies
    When my temp rose three days in a row, FF marked CD18 as O day (I had already passed this day)
    Then this morning when I recorded a slight drop in temp, it changed O day to CD16!! This is good for us in terms of when we BD'ed, but I don't really understand how that could have been O day given the erratic temps around that time. Hopefully it means we have a better chance this month even if I don't fully get it!
    Hope you're having a good start to the week
