Wouldn't it be Murphy's Law that our first cycle TTC my body decides to be confusing?! I usually O about CD 16-18, but this cycle, FF is saying it's possible I O'd on Sunday on CD 14, but I was testing numerous times a day with OPKs and never got a +, and the fertility signs weren't really there very much, not like usual, the watery CM was questionable that I have recorded for those days. Also, I did have some right sided pain on Saturday, but I have that on and off pretty often, and not necessarily around O. TMI alert, but on Saturday I had some blood when I would check CM, but it was very light and I thought maybe my cervix was irritated. Can you guys take a look and tell me if you agree with FF that I possibly O'd on CD 14, or if my body is being screwy and I haven't O'd yet and am just having a longer cycle?
Chart Thanks girls!

Re: Chart Experts Help
From your temp it looks like you may have Ovulated, but based off of what you've told me about you CM etc that makes it hard to say forsure.
Then again , if I look at your previous chart I don't think you have, because there after you O'd your temp when way high, as into the 98 So based on that I would say you haven't. If your temp goes down in the next few days again you'll know forsure.
It seems to me that every once in a while everyone has a messed up cycle, so hopefully it's nothing.

Were the OPK's strips or digital?
I was using the strips - the first month I got a positive clear as day - after that I never did, and I was charting in tandem with it and my charts indicated that I did indeed ovulate.
I'm guessing the blood was as you suspected, from an irritated cervix.
It looks to me like you did O on Sunday. Did you do the deed?
And I totally feel ya. I timed all of my BD'ing under the assumption I was going to O one day this month and I actually O'ed a day early..... I still have a chance, but totally missed my peak day
More frustrating b/c I thought I hit it spot on.
Jodie, we didn't have it timed so well if I did indeed O on Sunday, last time was Friday and and then Monday, Saturday and Sunday Tony was super sick, and we were exhausted, and with the irritation I didn't want to. I suppose there's still some chance, but not great, I would have preferred to at least get some in on Saturday or Sunday.
It's so frustrating because for the last few months I had such clear signs, plus a super positive OPK, and now when TTC my body decides to act all funky. Oh, and they were the strips OPKs, which I know aren't so realiable, but in tandem with the other signs I thought would be a more accurate picture, especially since without them I have usually been able to get a more accurate and clear O. I'm super bummed if I did indeed O on Sunday though because then we'll be delayed until the December cycle when Tony will be home for good.
