You are Here: BBT Chart Gallery > Another repost, sorry :( This is confusing
Don't like what you see on this chart?Thanks so much to all of u who answered my previous questions!
I'm not sure if I should just start a new cycle, and if so, what day should I use as the beginning of it? This is difficult. U are right, the spotting I have now is for a couple days already and seems to me also more like a period, but different.
I now changed my chart again. The past two cycles were very long (around 40+ days) and I removed the O day also. Does this make it look any different? So confusing.... :(
Temp was at 97.8 again today.
During the two previous cycles (off pill) there was no spotting/bleeding during the cycles at all.
I just blame the pill for this big mess this month ;)
Thanks for reading!
Lots of babydust to u all! And thank u again for ur help! 9/5/2008-10/14/2008 (estimated 40 day cycle)

Do you think the 'spotting' was just another cycle? I mean, you temp dropped right before it and maybe you are just very irregular right now. Did you by any chance just go off birth control? Fertility drugs? Sometimes those give you like 10 day "mini AFs". keep for now and see as your last few cycles were 40 days long. BTW, it is healthiest to have cycle 27-32 days with at least a 10 day LP but preferably longer like 12-14. If your cycle goes too long in the FP, they consider your eggs to be "over done" and if too short "not mature enough". If LP is short, a pregnancy cannot occur. I swear that looks like 2 different cycles... My temps at AF start high from hormone surge, so I temp but X them and then they drop to a normal range for duration of FP, dip at O, then rise well above 4/10s until slight drop before next AF and it all starts again. I would consider checking your CM.
After AF:
2-3 Days of sticky 2-4 days of milky/creamy 1-5 days of EWCM (this is around when O, so you will know for sure) Then after O it turns to dry/sticky or maybe slightly cloudy til AF
I also chart my cervix location and if hard or soft and open or closed.
While on AF, it is low, hard, and open. Post AF, it is dry, lumpy, closed. O, it is high, open, and wet Post O, it is dryer, lower, and closed.
Some people say if stays up, you are pregnant. But cervical changes during pregnancy vary so much from woman to woman and I would chart this more to know when Oing.
Hope this helps!

Just saw you said just went off pill...makes sense then... I had two mini cycles like you - counted them as two, next cycle (this last one) was normal and Oed CD 10 and got BFP...I m/ced last week. But still... I was on pills to help rid cyst and they made me soooo sick. Your cycle will regulate in few months. This is why the experts tell women to not BBT Chart for 3-6 months after done with pill. It doesn't mean you aren't Oing or anything, just that your hormones are all wacky.

I have also had the mimi AfF or spotting as you have said. I still charted it on the same chart. I stil have my chart set up as I did last month, but the "extra" af might have pushed back my O. I'm temping right now (during my original O phase) to see if I get a dip. If not, it sould have been pushed back to the next week. I'll post my chart soon so you have someone to compare your chart to who is also in the same situation as you are! : ) I can even email you a copy of last months chart too if you wish. I know this pill stuff is very aggravating... we will get through it together!

Thanks u two! You're very helpful! I'm still getting the hang of all this, but the more I learn about charting the more interesting it is! It is such a great way to keep track of your cycles and the fertile/non-fertile phases of each cycle. It feels a little like "being more in control" and understanding your body better. :) I'm not that crazy about getting pregnant super fast, since I already have two little girls (4 and 2 years old). I'm pretty sure I don't need to keep any hope up for this cycle. I'll just keep on watching what happens. Question just is, when the new one will start..... LOL I'm very sorry to hear about the miscarriage, babydustglitter :( Trying41stHarrisBaby, I sent u an email! ;)
Thanks again, and I think I'll keep y'all posted :D

I would still hang in there and not start a new chart just yet. Make sure you feel it is a true AF before starting a new chart. If AF comes early go to your ovulation calandar and to the left you have where to can add things to the calandar by date. Then go to started period... enter the date you started and a new BBT chart will pop up. and according to your charting of the previous month, you might have to change or adjust your phases. Hope that helps! : )

You can click on any days you don't want to count for maybe reasons like you had alcohol the night before, you didn't feel well, beginning of AF, etc and it will X them so you can still see them but they don't affect your coverline. I wouldn't worry too much about your chart as you just went off the pill, like I mentioned earlier and spotting and saw-toothed charts are part of that process. Here is a site where you can openly view hundreds of charts. This is helpful if perhaps you aren't real familiar with 'reading' charts and want to compare:

I wanted to mention, charts are not always the best thing. You could get pregnant and your chart looked like a scramble that cycle, so don't think about it too much, ok? You will get the hang of it and I think your body will even out from the pills. Let us know what happens, plz!?!?!

Did you know that many REs give patients bcps the cycle before an IVF as it straightens out your hormones and makes you more likely to conceive? I have a friend who is 14 yrs older than me and was TTC #1 and bcps helped her get pregnant. They make me sick as heck, but wow!!! So go BD!!! hehehe..
