I'm sure is on the way. I don't get it though. The temp from today was 1 hour early, but it was with correct sleep in about the same temp room as normal. I just recorded the unadjusted 5:30am temp, but adjusted is 98.09.
Stupid temps.

Link to chart in siggy.


Shouldn't early temps be lower, not higher?? I thought mine always were at least.


ETA: Any other time implantation could have occurred?? The 6DPO and 11DPO temps were at 5:30am, all with correct amount of sleep. 5DPO dip could be because the room was a little cool. Any thoughts?

Not sure. It might just be a little sooon for a BFP.

Is it right that your temps will be lower if you temp early, or is that not right? I mean, if you put it in the adjuster it rises the longer you would sleep. Right? I'm so confused.

Don't freak out yet, last cycle was 31 days and FF only guessed at when you O'ed. You're a couple days short of that still. The could very well be on her way.

Yes, normally if you wake earlier your temp will be lower.

I think that you may have O'd one day later than what FF is saying, so you could be 10 DPO. Looking at your previous chart, you had about a 9-10 day LP. The fact that the temp is up is a very good sign though. I would say if you are pregnant that implantation just happened, which is why the temp spike, but not enough hormone to get a positive yet.

IF I Oed CD 19 I'm most likely not pregnant. We only BDed around there on CD17.

Thanks for the input everyone!!

You had favorable CM, so the sperm could live for up to 5 days. Just more likely that you would have a girl.

I was going to say the same thing!

I for sure want another girl. Don't tell DH.

Actually, that would make your chances quite high because you had fertile CM at the time. When CM is present, it can lock sperm cells away in the crypts of your cervix for up to 5 days, waiting for ovulation. You've got excellent TTC timing! I have 2 little boys from BDing 3 days before O, a little girl from 4 days before O, and a little boy from BDing 5 days before O!

Haha! Well, BDing 2-3 days before O is the perfect thing for you, then! Be patient - 18 days solid temps above follicular phase temps is a good sign you're pregnant, no matter what the specifics of the spikes are. It's possible you'll start to see a triphasic pattern, but you don't need that for a BFP. And remember - don't be fooled by bleeding if your temps are still high, go ahead and test.

I'm on Day 12 of high temps, and am probably going to wait until the morning of the 19th (my birthday!) to test (to save myself the heartache of a BFN that doesn't mean anything). Ideally, if my temps are still high by then I should already know I'm pregnant even if I get a BFN (just because your HCG isn't high enough to show yet doesn't mean you're not pregnant), and I'll just keep on testing on a daily basis until I either get my positive, or my temp drops and I know AF is on her way.
