Have you got a BBT thermometer?
You need to take your temp first thing in the morning the input the data in the FF system.
The temp should dip around ovulation and to confirm ovulation your temp must rise for at 3 days after the dip. IYKWIM
I found the best option was to get some OPK's.
We were charting for about 7 months and then I stopped and used OPK's and fell preg within the first month.
Good luck I hope that you get your :bfp:

I use opk kit last month, but got nothing on them. So the BBT is pretty much a hit and miss like opk's??
Thankyou :)

I guess that different things work for some people and not others.
I found that taking my temp and using FF was about 4 days out from the OPK's. I also used maybe baby and that didn't work for me either, used that for about 5 months.
So I guess that you can only try.
ETA - I got some OPK's off ebay and they were cheap less than what my thermometer was.

Can someone please have a look at my ff chart. This is my first time temping and I can't seem to pinpoint ovulation at all - what do you think? http://www.fertilityfriend.com/ttc/index.php

Oh - how do I make it so you guys can see my chart? Anyone?

Hi xpectant
FF won't confirm O until three days after (there needs to be 3 higher/elevated temps). It's looking like you may have O'd Cd13 or 14 but if so, FF will confirm it either tomorrow or Tuesday. :fingerscrossed: for you.

Thanks for your reply Lilith. I thought there had to be a big drop in temp at ovulation? We'll see in a couple of weeks I guess!!
