See my chart - when did I ov?

[katiecornflakes]

Hi ladies....

So FF hasn't given me crosshairs yet since I just had a temp rise this AM. My issue is that I'm starting progesterone this cycle and I'm trying to start it at 2DPO. I'm not sure if I'm 1DPO or 2DPO today. I feel like FF usually puts ov the day before the temp rise (yesterday) but it's also often the day after a pos OPK (Monday).

So I'm not sure if I want to start the progesterone tonight or tomorrow night since if it's started too early it can mess with fertilization (12-24h after ov). Thoughts? Here's my chart.

Thanks!

I would say it's either CD18/19 or somewhere in between. LOL.
I might wait until tomorrow's temp to just make sure today's high temp wasn't a fluke.
Although the creamy CM leads me to believe you did in fact ovulate.

LOL - thanks! I should add that I did temp a couple of times this AM even though I know you're not supposed to but DS has been waking early so when I woke at 2 I temped and got 97.55, which adjusts to just about what I got at 5 am - 97.99. And actually the 5am temp was taking so long I thought maybe I hadn't pushed the button right so I pulled it out of my mouth only to see the 97.99 and when I popped it back in it beeped. So I temped again (haha!) and got 97.87 or something. Phew! LOL. Anyhow, so after all that I believe my temps are really up today!!

I think it was CD19, but I am not 100% sure this is just my opinion. Good luck I hope this is your month!

agree. i would say cd19, could have been 18 if it were just around the time you took your temp and hadnt had a chance for the progesterone to affect your temp. but katie, progesterone will not affect fertilization in any way. progesterone can put a stop to an impending ovulation, but not fertilization, so dont worry about that. i take progesterone too, and i always wait till day 3 so there is no question in my mind, but that's just me. i would say you can be comfortable that you have o'd, unless you think you've got a fever coming on, that temp jump is impressive.

Really? Well that would make me feel better. I just read this a couple of times in the past couple of days and it was freaking me out a bit!

Thanks for the replies. ATM I'm going with the theory that I ov'd overnight/early AM on CD19 so I should be good to start the progesterone tonight.

Thanks, ladies!
