Regardless, sometimes I wonder why I bother with all the measurements since the BDathlon covers all possible bases. May God keep us PreSeeded and awake enough to keep to it.  | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | I have to agree with Capuru. The watery CM is what FF is saying that you have fertile CM not that you are ovulation. Watery fluid and EWCM is fertile fluid. When you get them and you temps are raised above a certain temp for three days, that is when FF will tell you if you ovulated. (by then it's too late by 3 days!)So my advice is to really pay close attention to your CM, you cervix position, and use the OPK. Be very consistant in taking your temps at the same time every morning!
Good luck! Sending you bunches of  |

| Yep, I know the answer to this one too. (Joanne is right by the way).
FF registers ALL the information you put in. It looks at CP, CM, temp and what you had for breakfast (not really).
You will notice that when you've entered "Watery" for your CM it has appeared highlight in bright green. That means it's a fertile SIGN. It's just one fertile sign however and it will give you a little green traffic light and say that you are PROBABLY fertile. It is not telling you that you have ovulated, but indicating that ovulation is on the way. If you look at my chart you will see that last cycle I had quite a few highlighted green CM boxes before ovulation as my CM was fertile for quite a while. It's a good thing.
Try changing your CM entry to sticky or creamy and it will get rid of the green traffic light as this type is not fertile. Then put back in the watery as that's what you have at the moment. I change my chart all the time to see what it all means and then put it back to whatever I find and have found it teaches me a lot about what the FF programe is reading in your signs and symptoms.
Hope this is clearly explained as I do tend to waffle.
Enjoy your new stuff when it arrives. It's all good fun. |
