Hi ladies. I hope everyone is having a good thanksgiving's eve! Just left my office and heading home to get a head start in tomorrow 's meal.
@LWilliams & Rebecca, here's a bit of information about BBT charting which coincidentally I googled today because my BBT Chart analysis states that I did not ovulate last month and I'm en route for the same outcome this cycle. So here it is:
"If your temperature shifts up noticeably and remains elevated, you can confirm ovulation using the three over six rule. This requires that the 3 temperatures after ovulation be 0.2 degrees F (0.1 degrees C) or more above the highest of the previous six temperatures with at least one of the temperatures being at least 0.4 degrees higher. This scenario is demonstrated in the adjacent figure.
After a temperature shift, you can optionally draw a coverline for reference. This line reflects the highest temperature of the previous six being considered plus 0.2 degrees. You want to see the prior six temperatures at least 0.2 degrees below the line and the next three above it to confirm ovulation.
Once this criteria is met, ovulation can be confirmed. Ovulation coincides with the temperature shift." This is an excerpt from "Fertility Instructor." I hope it helps you at least a little.
In any event, I'm POD2 with no obvious shift. Arghhh. I'm so upset but at least I'm glad I started Charting because at least now I know that I'm not ovulating even though I have regular periods. I called my doctor and he will see me on Tuesday. Anyway, I really need some words of comfort because I'm about to lose it.
On another note, I wish you all a great Thanksgiving, many blessings and tons of baby dust!

Happy Thanksgiving ladies! May God bless all of you with a special time with your families, and give you safety and peace.
Quick update - CD8 and I got a high reading on my monitor today. That's 4 days earlier than last month, so I have no idea what's going on. I'm still spotting from AF, and haven't detected any CM yet. Last month, I got one high reading, then went straight to peak. I haven't had any ovary pain or anything. This is just weird.
