Can someone help me read BBT chart?

Hi guys. As you know, I have LONG cycles of 33 + days. So this month, I decided to track my BBT. I went to my OBGYN and found out I had a yeast infection, so I took a pill for it earlier this week and have not been able to BD since late Saturday night (midnight/Sunday). Doctor said I should be fine to BD starting today (Wed). This made me SO UPSET because I haven't BD'd since then and I'm afraid I ovulated during that time and missed it. On the chart, you can see my BD'ing schedule, etc. We'll BD tonight!

Can anyone look at my chart and tell me if you think I've ovulated, or am about to? I started with a tiny bit of eggwhite/sticky CM last night, and today it's eggwhites when I wipe (sorry TMI)!!!! =/

I'm hoping I haven't ovulated yet so I can get to BD'ing and not have to count this month out! I have to wait long enough with these long cycles!!!

Thanks ladies!

From your chart, I would agree with Heather5. It doesn't look like you ovulated yet, so still sprinkling baby dust on you. But if you want to be sure, you can email or print the tracker for your doctor. Right click on the chart and click Save As. Then you can print or email it. Good luck!

Well I have only been charting for 3 months but I feel well versed in it.  It looks to me like you may have possibly o'd on cd 21 however, if you took your temp on day 22 later than normal or were moving around a lot it also looks like you have not O'd yet.  Could be an anovulatory cycle or you just havent O'd yet.  How long are your cycles typically?  Mine have been 33 days long for the last 3 months but I either O on cd 14 or 16 which gives me a luteal phase of 17-19 days long.  Keep charting, make sure it is at the same time every day and before you get out of bed or move around.  Have you gone to fertiityfriend.com?  It is a great site.  You should check it out.  Good luck!

I'm no expert as I've just started charting but you may have ovulated around cycle day 16 from what I have read.  It's supposed to be a drop with 3 consecutive rises in temps.  Your bding looks ok - Sperm lives up to 3/5 days anyway.

If you go to www.fertilityfriend.com and enter all of your information it should give you a really good idea of where you are at and also there's loads to read to help you understand your cycle.

OK! I just looked at it, and it doesn't look like you've ovulated yet. Time to get busy ;-)

Good luck this month!

If you have EWCM now, you probably haven't ovulated yet...but I'll take a look at your chart ;-)
