Confused...

Here's a public link to my . FF told me that I O'd between CD14 and CD18, but couldn't pinpoint it.

I didn't get my basal thermometer until CD12, so that's why I don't have a lot of temps. The past 6 days, I've had what I charted as "cramps" and "bloating". What's going on is my pelvic area feels full and achy. My cervix also feels achy. I wouldn't call it pain, just discomfort. I'm not sure what to think. Last night during BD, there was pain. My cervix, my uterus, my orgasm, it all hurt. Any ideas what could be going on?

Without any temps prior to cd 12, you cannot get an accurate coverline and therefore, FF can't really pinpoint O.
I'd say just from what you have that O could've been on cd15, but you have lots of fertile Cm after that. So could've been cd 17 or 18 depending on why the open circle temp on 17? Are you sure that it was stretchy CM you had after cd 15 and not just creamy or sticky?
i'd say this cycle may not pinpoint anything exactly, but good to get the practice in. A full cycle's worth of temps next time will be more accurate - but hopefully you won't even need it if you get your BFP!

Re: the pain, i am not sure what is going on. Do you have any abnormal looking discharge? Could just be the paying extra attention to your body's normal symptoms if this is your first month TTC?

it's also very hard to accurate determine cm when you are dtd that much. you are gonna just have to keep on keeping on and see if it becomes clearer, but like jenn said, this months chart may not help you much. agree about the pain too- it is amazing how much we notice when we actually start paying attention, but common sense says, if something goes from normal discomfort to actual pain, you might want to get it checked out.

I'm still not sure about the CM, because of how often we DTD ... DH's "way" of TTC is making sure we DTD as much as possible...

No funky odor or discharge. We don't have health insurance, so if I get "checked out" it'll be at the health department or ER. I have had 2 c-sections, and I *think* I remember "ignoring" (because we were TTP and we really didn't *need* to be pregnant) pain/discomfort with DS...
