Hi Ladies! I know I don't normally post in here, but I thought you'd be able to help me.

On Friday, I got a +OPK, yesterday morning I took another OPK and it was neg. My temp still hadn't risen yesterday morning. This morning I woke up to my alarm to take my temp at 6:45...got 97.33. I was really expecting to see a jump because of O. So I went back to sleep and woke up at 11 (DH let me sleep in today!) and I decided to take it again and got 98.02 which is where I would have expected it to be around after O. But, I usually temp at 6:45 every morning. Although I have been having some major sleeping problems lately. I didn't fall asleep lastnight until after 3am. So now I'm wondering which temp I should record. This is my first cycle charting, so I'm really confused as to what to do! Any advice, ladies???

I would say record the one from your usual waking time, even if you went to sleep at 3am. As long as you got 3 hours of full sleep, it should be a reliable temp.

Ditto

Sometimes +OPK's can indicate ovulation up to 48 hours before it happens. It looks like you did O though.

sometimes it takes up to 3 days after a pos opk for me to o

Thanks for the replies, ladies! My temp didn't go up this morning either. So we'll see what tomorrow morning brings!
