Charting my BBTs confusion about the OPK.

[NTK_CONCEPT]

My cycle began on 10-14, my temps have ranged between 97.2 to 97.3, on CD # 8 jumped to 97.5 stayed there for 3 days then on CD 12 hit 97.6 and this morning was @ 97.5. Now I tested with
The OPK this AM no positive, (Oh yeah my base line is 97.2) So have I ovulated already??

I think you prolly ovulated right before the temp rise. (do you usually ovulate that early in the cycle?)

[NTK_CONCEPT]

This is my first full cycle of charting....And was told the OPK would help. My Cervix is high--open---soft and wet....and my cm is eggwhite...stretchy and slippery....I read that if the temp is high for 3 consec. days then I ovulated.... .2 degrees shift.....

Just to let you know - typically your temp will spike anywhere from .4 to .6 degrees the day after ovulation and continue to rise or stay around that higher temp until AF or a BFP!  It doensn't sound like you have ovulated yet.

Still sounds like "fertile" symptoms....I'd BD like crazy till ovulation for sure passed :)
isn't this fun?

Good luck!

Okay, this morning it was 97.2 so am I ovulating today?? I didn't have a kit!!! On my chart there is a clear dip....I think I am ovulating but needing opinions..

[Pippsquike]

could be your ovulation dip? I always have one every month....then the next day temps rise.... hard to tell since this is your first month charting? you may need a few cycles to see a pattern. Keep BD so you atleast dont miss ovulation....

good luck!

It sounds like today may be your ovulation day.  Watch your temps and if they go up by .4 or .6 degrees and stay that high or higher you should be in the good!

Okay, I got two lines on the OPK....I bd'd last night, and this AM....SO I HOPE MY TEMPS ARE RIGHT!
