miscalculating ovulation by bbt

morning girls, i usually post on maternal but its all full.  i just put all my bbt info onto a site called fertilityfriend.com and i had a dip in temp on dec 13 thinking this was o day but per their site it states my o day was actually dec 15th.  i was pretty sure that the dip was the o.  this puts me at 7dpo and i thought i was at 9dpo.  any help for future charting?  anyone ever use this site?

o duh, thanks.  i could only think of french fries.  Ok, so the dip is the pre-ovulation and in that case FF was correct in stating my o day the day before the temp rise????

Dip before rise: You may see a slight temperature dip before your temperature rise. If you are lucky enough to get advanced warning of ovulation like this over several cycles, it is a good way to time intercourse very close to ovulation. You may, however have a dip that is not followed by a sustained rise and mistakenly assume ovulation is imminent when you see a dip. An individual dip on its own does not tell you anything about ovulation or your fertility.
