help with chart, please

i have no idea what is going on with me. First month charting and not idea why it does not show O I have cramps today and i am just so down as i have no idea what they relate to Please look at my chart and tell me your opinions. why FF is not showing O yet? chart

Re: help with chart, please

how long is your cycle generally??

FF usually requires three days of high temps before it gives you O crosshairs. based on todays temp it doesnt look like you Oed.

some people get a dip right before O, so if you dipped today and you are cramping, you might be Oing now. do you use OPKs?? if i were you i would use one today and see if you can catch the surge. either way i would def .

Re: help with chart, please

long cycles, around 38 days on average.

i have been using OPK since day 12, i think, all negative, including today. i am so confused.

do you think i can take advil? cramps are not fun and they are intense

we did BD in the morning, but since i cramp and hurt, i do not think we will BD in the evening.
thanks

Re: help with chart, please

you dont need to more than once a day.

also why wouldnt you take advil?? even if you O today it wouldnt effect anything.

there is a chance you dont O this cycle. every once in a while its OK to have an anov cycle. but if your cycle is normally 38 days (which is longer than average) and you temp and discover that you are having anov cycles, you should def consider seeing a doctor or an RE. just because you get AF each month around the same time doesnt necessarily mean you are Oing, specifically if you tend to have a long cycle.

that being said, are the cramps AF-like or different?? if they are twingy O cramps, this could just be a longer cycle for you.

good luck!!
