Temp's on the rise! Hope it stays that way!

This month is so exciting for me since I have real, consistent data to look at! I haven't been messing up my times, and I've been getting proper sleep. Setting my alarm for 6 in the morning DEFINITELY made a difference! Now I don't have to worry about waking up before my temp time.

Anyway, my temp did a little jump today, and my CM is watery today---and sometimes it looks on the verge of being EWCM. I haven't checked my CP at all yet this cycle; I'll check it tonight to see where it's at (I've always checked it at night when in the shower). I'm hoping that my temp goes even higher tomorrow, indicating that I've O'd yesterday or today. Maybe my LP will be long enough this cycle! Here's to hoping that AF stays away till at least CD27-28!

(Edit: Forgot to mention that yesterday's CM was creamy for around the first half of the day, then turned more watery the latter half of the day.)

Looking good! Looks like if your temp stays up you'll get your CH

I love knowing things are working too!

Well, out of curiosity, I checked my CP while in the shower just a little while ago, and it was only medium-high and semi-soft; it doesn't feel very open. So, I probably haven't O'd yet, or maybe I already did? Is my temp today enough of a rise to indicate ovulation? I don't think it is, but maybe the first temp spike isn't that high for everybody? I wouldn't know what my body does, since I missed so many temps last month. Thoughts?

It could be a slow rise. I've had charts like that in the past, where the shift seemed small at first and then built up. Time is really the only thing that will tell you for sure.

Yeah, I'll have to see what happens with tomorrow's temp. Maybe it will go higher, and if not, then I might not ovulate until CD17-20 again, like I suspected I did last month. Today is only CD15, out of a normally 26-29 day cycle.

Woohoo! I definitely think I ovulated! I had to take my temp at 4:30 a.m. today, since that was when DF woke up for work (and I always wake up with him), so since it was an hour-and-a-half earlier than usual, my temp might have even been .1 or .2 higher than what I got. But of course I'm still happy with 98.0!

So what do you ladies think? Do you think I actually ovulated, and if so, do you think it happened on CD14 or CD15?
