This makes no sense...

[Mrs. Vet]

I started tempin this cycle on CD 6, first Fertility Friend said I o'd on CD 9. That made no sense to me and sure enough it stopped making sense to FF one or two days ago!
Now based on my temps it says I ovulated on CD 13 which would be awesone as we BDed on CD 12! So while I wish it would be true, my CM was sticky that day and creamy the days before.
I started doing OPKs yesterday and they all came back negative, today I took 2 and both were negative as well. I do have the eggwhite/stretchy CM today though. My temp was lower the last 2 days and went up today.
So basically none of this fits together or makes any sense to me..
I'm still wondering if I'm even ovulating at all and now I wish I would have started temping sooner...
I guess we will keep BDing and I will keep trying the OPKs for a few more days..

Did anyone ovulate with no eggwhite stuff or have the eggwhite when you weren't ovulating?

I get the egg white stuff on and off all month long - also temping doesn't work well for me, and I get weird OPK results. These are all due to the fact that I have PCOS - but I DO ovulate (maybe not every month, but it happens) I know ladies on here who don't have PCOS but still get the on-again-off-again egg white and creamy CM all month long. Hope this helps

I would now that you are seeing ewcm. Can you link your chart so we can take a look? It almost sounds like you will ovulate today/tomorrow if your temp has started to rise. What time are you using your opks? I have only caught my surge very late, 9-10pm. So strange! I have tempted at 11, 2, 4, 6... and only catch it that late! Play around and see if that helps. Also, do you temp orally? I used to do mine orally but my temps were not very consistent so temping vaginally for me works better. Just a few suggestions, I hope you are able to figure out what your body is doing!

I will try to link it! Temp is still higher this morning. I am taking it orally, considering switching it to vaginally next cycle too as they always seem somewhat low orally. I am always taking it the same time first thing in the morning as I understood that is what I'm supposed to do.
The EWCM was gone last night and this morning I'm not really sure what it is, there isn't a whole lot of it there anymore but the bit that is there is sticky I think..

Ok does this work?

My Ovulation Chart

Based on your cm/cp Id say you haven't o yet. Be prepared for your chart to change again. Many women dont see ewcm. Watery cm is just as good if not better!

I will keep taking OPKs and we already BDed today and will do it again if the OPK shows positive tonight (if not maybe tomorrow again).
I hope if I don't end up preggo this cycle it will start to make more sense to me over the months...

It Should. Three months of charting is usually the key to seeing patterns. You'll have a better idea of how YOUR cycle works etc. Just keep at it. And fwiw.. opks dont work for everyone. Be sure to note any/all symptoms so you can compare to future cycles too!

I am starting to wonder about the OPKs! Just took them again (using 2 different brands right now) and now the line is fainter than the last 2 days!
So I guessthat could mean I already ovulated?

The symptoms don't really match though? Or do they?
I guess we are not finding out any time soon unless I end up pregnant!
