Charting newbie needs help!

Hi! This is my first month charting my BBT. Here is my chart:http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/3ec49c

On CD 17 I had an almost potitive OPK, it was just about as dark as the control but I was holding out to see if it would darken and recorded it as a -. Yesterdays OPKs were negative and todays is back to looking positive (I have attached a pic of todays). FF is giving me an O date of cd16, I say cd18 make more sense if that cd17 opk was in fact positive, but shouldn't todays be negative if I all ready o'd? If I enter the positive opk on cd17, FF does remove the cross hairs.

ANY help would be appreciated!

With that big jump today I would say you O'd yesterday (24th). It could have been the day before, but thats a pretty drastic jump- not typical for the slow rising charts I have seen. If it were between opks and your chart I would side with the chart. Opks can be so finicky!

I have had charts where my opks were pos in the am, neg in the afternoon. Some where I had three days of positive. But when my period would come FF had it right. Hope that helps!

I agree with Meg!

Thank you both so much! Sometimes it is nice to hear it from other people. I can think myself in circles sometimes, lol. Crazy TTC brain!
