Hi all,
I am just starting to temp this month and I have a question, this was my 3rd day entering my temp in but I seem to be waking up around 4 and restlessly rolling around utnil 5 when my alarm goes off. Is this giong to effect my temp?

I do not get out of bed, I just notice myself becoming restless about an hour before my alarm goes off for me to temp.

Thanks ladies!

it can have an effect. I usually temp as soon as i realize i'm awake, and then if i lie there for another hour, i might temp again. I look at my chart and decided which temp looks more accurate. Probably not the most accurate method, but it's what i do.

Thanks

It is almost as if I wake up look at the clock and then try to roll over and go back to sleep since it is not time to get up, and sometimes our dogs will wake me up and then i just lay there until the alarm goes off.

My advice is to temp as soon as your realize you're awake. You can always go back to sleep after you temp.

But what if it is not the exact same time each day?? That is my concern. Sometimes I wake up at 3 sometimes I sleep right through to my alarm at 5.

They do say you should only temp after 3 consecutive hours of sleep. So it possibly may have an effect
