coverline...? whats the rule

what is the guidline on drawing my coverline on my bbt chart? Also when do you start counting dpo?  If I ovulated on Friday (temp dip) and today sun(temps up) does that put me 2 dpo or 3?

I would wait for FF to put it in for you...usually after 3 temps.  If your temp stays up then you will know you ovulated.  If it goes back down then you may not have and keep BDing!

The line will usually show up by 4dpo. But it is when FF thinks you ovulated, which isn't always when you think you ovulated... You can also put the line in yourself. Count the 6 low temps before O and go 1/10th of a degree higher than the highest temp of those 6. That is the temp that you draw your coverline at. Hope this helps!
