Ovulation without rise in BBT?

Question

I use the clearblue advanced digital opk's. I had a flashing smiley for 4 days and then got my solid smiley on Monday meaning I should've ovulated by now. I've had sore boobs and been slightly crampy. I haven't had these symptoms for a while because I haven't ovulated in several months. I've yet to have a rise in my bbt though. Is it still possible I ovulated?? I'm really hoping so. This is getting really frustrating.

Answer

I think this could make sense if you ovulated Tuesday (day after your + opk) 2/4 then temp went up on 2/5. Now just keep taking it and see if it stays elevated to confirm.

Answer

It's so confusing. My temp went up the day before I got a positive opk then dropped and has now went back up again. Hopefully if it's still up the next couple of days I'm not out!!!

Answer

That enough. I think as the thing is that it needs to stay up for around three days. Which that looks like what happened to me.

Answer

This is what my chart looks like. I've been using OPK's for a while but never consistently checked BBT until this month. ​

Answer

I am in the same exact boat. Have you found answers? I can't seem to find a definitive answer :(

Answer

I'm reading conflicting reports. Some things say there's no way ovulation has occurred if the BBT doesn't rise. Others say it's perfectly possible. I don't know what to believe. I did just take a second look and my chart and realized I guess I did have a slight increase. 0.4° temp rise from 2/4 to 2/5. Is that even enough???
