When I look at other people's charts the temps are all up and down and mine is like a flat line, even before I ovulated there wasn't much just back and forth to the same temps. Is this normal? I've just never seen a chart like this before, I'm getting sick of waking up in the morning and my temperature is always the exact same!

Your chart looks great. It is a little weird that your post-O temp has not changed, but you have a thermal shift. Is there something wrong with your thermometer? Try taking your temp after being awake for a few hours and see what the therm says.

I did try that yesterday and it was a different temp so it is working fine! I know it's really bugging me that my temp is the same everyday!

are you using a BBT thermometer? Other than that consider yourself lucky. Your chart is very easy to interpret. My temps are all over the place, so i never know if I o'd or not.

A lot of women have flat temps at some point in their cycles. If you go to the chart gallery and choose "flat temps" you'll find lots that are that way. Also keep in mind that with celcius there will not be as much variation in temps.

I am using a BBT Thermometer. And I never thought about Celcius, there wouldn't be as much variation now would there!

Thanks for your help everyone. I really like charting, I thought it would be a pain but it's not.

I agree with Jenn, I'd love to have a boring chart! Boring is a good thing, don't worry!

Boring charts are good! I'm glad you're enjoying it so far! I remember when I started, there's a sense of self satisfaction that comes with it!

Well it doesn't seem as "boring" now since I dropped below the cover line! Is this bad? I've been whining about having the same temperature everyday and instead of it going up, it went down!

I think you may have Oed on CD 14, so a 7 DPO dip could be implantaion, or it could be nothing. Another 4 or 5 days and you should be able to test. Good luck!

Thanks! Yeah I thought maybe I O'd on the 14th as well but why would FF say the 15th? This is my first month charting so I'm not sure if you trust FF 100% of if it's not always correct? I hope it's implantation, I'm anxious to see what tomorrow's temp is!

FF loves dips and seems to rely heavily on temps. It always put my O a day later than I actually did.
