I was looking for the TTC Vets link to post on that, but I couldn't find it so I thought I'd just try this instead. Here is the info sorry if the part about CM is TMI:
December 19th = CD1 so today is CD16
My estimated ovulation date was January 1st but a predictor test read negative which didn't surprise me because my CM was nonexistant.
My temps have been steadily rising since CD10, hit a peak of 98.7 yesterday and this morning dropped to 98.2 - CM was present on CD11/12. This indicates to me that I've ovulated and since my temp dropped am not pregnant, but the program redrew my coverline this morning and says I'm still in my fertile phase, I think I should be in my luteal phase.
Any feed back would be helpful, thanks! :o

Have you been using the OPKs all along? What did they say? Have you been temping long or is this your first month?

Sometimes I would have this where a cycle would go on and on and it would seem like I would ovulate but then a few days later FF would redraw my cover line. I have PCOS though, and it would cause my body to gear up for ovulation, but it actually had a hard time sealing the deal. If you've been temping for a while though and usually see normal patterns I don't want to pass my wacky body and temps off on you. I know its not a very good answer but you may just be having an off month.

I wish you the best. Good luck.

I have used the OPK's pretty regularly - most of the time I now when I'm close to ovulating, I use an OPK and it confirms it. This time I waited till the day FF predicted I would ovulate just to see if it was right. It is my first month temping though I'm famiiar with my general cycle and never have a problem predicting when AF is going to arrive. I think the problem might lay in reading my CM - I'm not so practiced at that. It just never seemed "eggwhite" or "stretchy" to me this month, even on CD12 when there was the most of it. I'm gonna try reading that better this month and see if that makes a difference. Thanks for your input!
