Help, so confused
Ok so this is my first time charting, and am completely ignorant to the whole thing. I had ewcm on cd 13 finally got a positive opk on cd 15. Had cramping cd 15-17. I dont understand how to read my chart. From what I understand I think it looks like it saying I havent ovulated. Not sure if I'm reading it wrong. I temp every morning before I get out of bed. Temps usually in 7-8:00 time frame. Just wondering if anyone who has been charting a which can help me out. So again not sure if I'm doing something wrong, reading wrong or didn't ovulate. Any thoughts would be great. Thanks so much ahead of time.

Hi!
I'm new to the charting thing too but I've been doing A LOT of research - I read that a drop in your BBT and then a definite spike by 0.3 or more means you've ovulated.
Looking at your chart, looks like you O'd on CD8! as the drop and then rise in your temps show BUT that is strange to have a pos opk afterward - I'd have to look into that more myself...
Another waaaaay out there theory is that you really did O on cd8 and the opk is now picking up HCG of all things lol - wishful thining I know :P
Otherwise, maybe it wasn't a true positive opk, or maybe your body is confused - ya, don't see a definitive temp shift to indicate ovulation AFTER your pos opk.
Hmmm...strange indeed!
Charting can be so confusing!
