My notes...
CD 13- Almost positive OPK, temp 96.6
CD 14 - Negative OPK, cervix is high and soft, temp 97.1
-CD 15- 2 positive OPK's, cervix is extremely low, somewhat firm, but clearly open. Temp 96.7. CM is wet, but creamy.
-CD 16-
OPK: Extremelyyyy positive (must be the absolute peak)
Cervix: is low and very firm, still feels somewhat open...
Cervix 30mins later: now way up high, much softer and wide open!
CM: Wet, slight EWCM (rarely have any)
Clear Blue Fertility Monitor: Still showing "high fertility" but no "peak" aka ovulation, BUT because this is my first cycle using it, it's not supposed to truly work properly.
Temp: 96.8
-CD17-
Assuming I'm ovulating, travelled CD17-CD20. Temp 96.5 (temp dipped, confirming I ovulated?)
-CD19-
Cervix: Low, closed, clearly angled
CM: Wet, but I've been drinking lots more water and tea.
-CD21-
OPK: SUPER and INSTANTLY positive
Cervix: Very high, soft, OS pouring EWCM!
CM: EWCM! More than I've seen in over a year!
Clear Blue Fertility Monitor: Shows peak/ovulation for the first time.
Temp: Up to 97.33 (my normal for after ovulation...)
So, I traveled the actual day I was supposed to ovulate (CD 17-CD20). Maybe my body put the breaks on ovulating at the last possible second, sort of "holding its breath" for a few days until I returned home? Here I am, CD 21, and returned home last night and am CLEARLY ovulating. Maybe my LH built up over those few days and I'm super ovulating today?
I suppose this makes sense?
CD 15: Getting ready to ovulate
CD 16: Definitely positive, due to ovulate on time the following day
CD 17-CD 20: Traveling. Body decides not to ovulate just yet?
CD 20: Return from my trip around 7pm
CD 21: Morning after I return from my trip, CLEARLY ovulating.
Us: Together since '07, engaged '09, married '11. Trying to start a family since '09. 1 BFN.

I think my approach would be to see how this cycle relates to your other cycles. Everyone has weird cycles - either because of traveling, a fluke, whatever -- but, what pattern can you see from your other cycles that would help?
Lucky Cycle 14: IVF!! Antagonist Cycle with Lupron Trigger
I know I'm over thinking it, next cycle will likely be totally normal. I've never felt so much bloaty ovulation cramps than this cycle. I feel like I'm hyper ovulating this cycle but I'm not on any meds. Next cycle we'll be using 2 vials and attempting at home IUI if my dang tomcat would hurry up and get here! It's on back order. Fingers crossed next cycle is very basic and easily deciphered.

It worked! Two clomid cycles and two IUI's with injectables all BFN, on to IVF! 3dt of 2 perfect embryos on 12/15/14, BFP 7dp3dt! Frederick Lars born at 37 weeks on 8/15/15!! FET for #2 on 9/29/16 - BFP 5dp5dt!! Bertram Wilder and Mabel Moon born at 28.4 weeks on 3/29/17!
Merilung-- I had read that, but the extremely positive cheap OPK and fertile cervix is what boggled my mind.
Caliejones-- I have been avoiding all meds like crazy, including ibuprofen, but you're right, that is great to know! Thank you!
