Don't like what you see on this chart?

Wow, I just started charting and now I'm worried that I may have a Luteal Phase Defect... any help would be appreciated!! DH and I missed our window this month but that's ok, I was just trying to get a feel for my cycle. But fertilityfriend puts me at a 9 day LP but based on my temps, I'm thinking I may have 10 or 11 days. HELP!! I'm getting worried...

8/23/2008-9/20/2008 (estimated 29 day cycle)

They don't usually count it a LPD until 3 cycles of a LP being 10 days or less. I think maybe your CD 15 temp was a fluke and maybe you didn't O til really the 20th. Turn 15th into an X, change O, and see what happens - but keep notes some where in case this isn't what happened and you can have both charts - I never X a temp w/o a note JIC. You will possibly get a + OPK day before O and EWCM is present few days before and/or after few days.

Thanks! I'm adjusting one more temp too because I just checked my paper chart and I realized that one of the temps I took 2 hours after I woke up so it really should be eliminated from my chart. The others are all almost on the dot at 6am when I get up. A couple are at 6:20...
