Please look at my BBT Chart

Ok so on August 23 I felt some serious O pains for like 45 minutes which excited me because I had just DTD the day before. Here's where the problem lies. This is my first month charting so my first like 10 temps were never taken with a good nights sleep most of the time I was tossing and turning and waking up in the middle of the night yada yada yada. Well the night I think I O'd there was (what I assume to be) an ovulation dip and subsequent rise but shortly after (August 28th)it dipped again then rose up again. And as u can see FF says I O'd way later than when I think I did. I feel like FF says I O'd at that time because I started actually getting good sleep and being able to chart better. I guess my real question is have any of u guys that use the Fertility Friend app ever have it tell u what u think is wrong or something similar. I'm trying to hold out hope that I could possibly be pregnant but it's fading fast. I had a BFN at what I think are 10dpo 11dpo and 15dpo. Now usually i don't take HPT's until I'm a week late so it's possible that I'm one of those whose HCG doesn't show up until AF is missed but I feel like I'm grasping at straws here.

Hi there! I looked at your chart and I am by no means an expert, this is only my first cycle charting too. I'm sorry but I tend to agree with FF on your chart. Even though you had a dip you never had a sustained rise above your cover line until after cd 12. Lack of good sleep straight through would make me think eratic temps rather than wrong o date. Maybe you geared up to ovulate the first time but didn't, that would explain the pain. I didn't notice any other fertility signs on your chart like cm. Do you note any of these? Do you use opks? These things together help take a majority of the guesswork out of figuring when you do ovulate. Although I'm still guessing sometimes. How long is your cycle usually?

Thanks for looking! My cycles vary between 25 days and 28 days but I've never charted before so I don't know how long my luteal phase is (I actually just learned what a luteal phase is lol) I just assumed since I never really temped at the same time at first and I felt the O pains like I do every month that I must have ovulated when I felt the pain That's a bummer because we didn't really DTD close enough to FF's ovulation date if that's the case. Oh well I guess I'll be better prepared for next cycle.

Oh and to answer your question I don't check cm or use opk's because I feel O every month and never had a problem getting pg before I have 3 daughters. We would just bd every other day NTNP around the fertile time and BAM every time. This TTC is hard work

It is hard work lol. I have been really unsure of my chart and am lacking when it comes to cm but I found using opks to help give me a heads up when o was approaching. Im sorry if it doesn't work this cycle but now that you've temped you can time bd when you get o pains and around the cycle days that showed o this cycle. Good luck to you!
