Im new to temping and Im not too saure how to know when I am ovulating according to my temperatures. Im CD 9 but they seem to be going up...?? Is there a certain temperature that when I get above it I know Im ovulating?

Do you have a link to your chart? That would be helpful. The really isn't a certain temperature. Everybody is different as to what temps are normal O and preO/postO temps. It's not uncommon for your temp to go up and then drop down right before O before shifting up for your thermal shift. Post a link to your chart and we can take a look at it.

Sorry, I thought I had posted my chart right, but I didnt lol. Well there it is, only CD 9 so not too much to look at. But any early input would be good, thanks!

I don't think you have o'd yet. It is really early in your cycle. What will probably happen next is your temps may start to drop back down and then you will ovulate.

You should really try to chart your cm. That will help a lot with identifying your o date. We have a few links in the charting school subforum on cm that might be helpful.

I have been charting my CM, when its there lol. So far today I have had alott of EWCM with very slight cramping and my temp is still going up. According to FF, I am probably fertile. Is that because of my temp or because of the EWCM? I have no clue when I O in my cycle so I have nothing really previously to go off of. Ill look into the charting school subforum, thank you.

FF is telling you that you are "probably fertile" due to your CM, not your temps.

Temps can be really erratic at the beginning of your cycle... I know mine are sometimes. So I wouldn't worry too much.

The other ladies are right... everyone's body is different, and sometimes your own body may be different from cycle to cycle. For example, my post-O temps used to be between 97.6-98.0 The past few cycles, my post-O temps have been between 97.7-98.6

I look forward getting to watch your chart and getting to know you better! Loads of helpful ladies here who will be more than happy to stalk your charts, help you interpret them and get all excited with you over all the variations!!

Here's some Baby just to get you goin'!!

Thanks for your input. By the way, your chart looks great! I hope you get your BFP soon!!
