View Full Version : Temp not jumping?

Just a quick question for you charting and temping pros...
Unfortunately, I loaned my TCOYF to someone so I'm not able to read up and see what might be the answer...

-Today, Wednesday is CD 21.
-TCOYF predicted O for Monday, CD19.
-I took an OPK on Saturday and got a faint test line - says it should be considered -.
-Monday I took another OPK and got a line similar to the reference line - thought it should be considered +.
-TCOYF gave me an egg for yesterday, presumably because I put in the +OPK result for Monday.
-I did feel some twinges on Monday, which I have noticed during other month's O.

Strangely, though, my temp hasn't jumped up. Is that normal/possible?
Or do you think it means I didnt really O? I have to say, though, that when I was charting when TTC my son, TCOYF was eerily correct for my cycles, and I don't think I've ever been aware of an annovulatory cycle.

Any thoughts?
TIA!

hmmm it probably gave you that because of the positive OPK. I've never used them, but I've read that you can O up to like 2 days (or something like that) after the + OPK. Have you tested yesterday or today with one?

Nocona,
No, I haven't used any more OPKs - just used up the few I had left. I didn't even think to do that, since my Dh is away until Monday now. But, I guess it would have been smart to try and figure out my cycle.

I'll bet you get your temp jump tomorrow :aok: The software will probably change your O date to yesterday or today.

I'll be interested to see what happens. Thanks for your response!

No problem. Are you charting online? I used Fertility Friend, but maybe you're using Ovusoft? It takes FF 3 days of higher temps before it will show your O date and your coverline. Not sure about Ovusoft.

Wow- thanks for reminding me. I did register with Fertility Friend awhile back, I'll have to check out their charting. As of right now, I'm using Ovusoft. I think that when I don't plug in OPK results it takes a few days to get an O date.

Hey...Karin, I notice you're pregnant. How did that chart end up looking? Did your temp jump shortly after you posted that?
