Hello I am Maren i am new to charting this is my first (almost) complete cycle charting i consistently temp and off and on check cervix. I am on CD 28 with a usual of 30 days. I just got my Mirena IUD out on June 15. I am waiting for AF to show up as i don't believe i am pregnant already. I do have a question for everyone is it normal to have a temperature drop a few days before you get AF my temp dropped about 1.3 degrees this morning. I would be more than happy to post my strange crazy chart if someone would tell me how to

I will try to come around often but my wedding is 19 days away

so i am a bit busy!

Welcome Maren! I happen to know a very cute 6 months old named Maren lol. It is normal for your temp to drop before AF. If your temp is dropping, you can probably expect her in the next couple of days.

Hi Maren! Welcome to the charting board!!!

It is very normal to have a temp drop right before AF shows. Hopefully this means your cycles are getting back to normal. Your charts may be a little wacky for a bit since you are just coming off of Mirena. It is good that you are charting because this way you can tell when you are ovulating.

If you want to post your chart and you are using Fertility Friend, you just need to go to the link at the top of your chart that says home page set up. Then you will see a url you can copy and paste.

Thank you for the welcome!
I figured out how to post my chart link in my siggy, it took another strange turn this morning and jumped back up so i guess im just waiting it out to see what my body decides to do. I did have regular bleeding when i had my IUD so i guess it will be interesting to see what taking it out did.

Your chart looks all crazy like mine!

I'm charting for the first month too. I also recently had Mirena out. Good luck and congrats on the getting married in a few days!

You had one heck of a temp spike yesterday. Perhaps you might have o'd! Dying to see today's temp!
