I need temp help (it's not on my chart)

DeepSouthMommy · #1 September 24th, 2009, 12:40 PM

Hi girls! I'm trying my best to get caught up now that we are back from San Antonio. The trip was FANTASTIC and SO needed! I'll post about it later on in an O/T thread.

But I have a question. I temped most mornings while we were gone, but didn't add them to FF because I figured they'd be thrown off because I wasn't sleeping well, etc. So this morning (after getting a good night's sleep, in my own bed!) I temped again. My temperatures keep DROPPING. You know how most people's temps climb a little each day after O and especially if they are pregnant? Mine keep getting lower and lower. This morning's temp was down to 97.13. I don't have any temps that low. I was noticing before we left that I was cold at night, but then would wake up sweating like a pig after a few hours and then would be back to being just a bit cool when I wake up in the morning.

And not that yall really want to know these

...but my nipples have been very sensitive lately, but only if like the seatbelt rubs across them, not so much in just touching them, just if they are brushed against. And I've had tons and tons of either creamy or sticky (I think it's creamy as when I had on dark panties it looked like lotion in them) CM. It was so bad that I was changing my panties twice a day while on our trip because they were wet...and I don't really enjoy feeling like I've peed myself. LOL

Anyone have any ideas? I am really wondering what's up with my temperatures because they are so unusual.

I have to head out the door in a sec, but it'd be a lot easier for me to give my thoughts if the info was on the chart. I'm kind of a visual gal. I'd add the temps in as is and see what happens. I'll come recheck this when I get back. Glad to see you back Michelle! I missed you.

Hmmm I think your signs could be good....its hard to tell by your chart. I do like that dip though.

DeepSouthMommy · #4 September 24th, 2009, 12:56 PM

Ok Teresa, I added them in! And thank you, I've missed you as well as everyone else too!

Btw, just to note, FF originally had my O date as CD26.

Okay, you are probably not going to hear my thoughts, but here goes. I think you are gearing up to O. I think you are going to get crosshairs again really soon. Hang in there. I know it's been a long cycle, but I do think you O'd last cycle and I do think you are going to O this cycle too. I'd keep bding if you are up to it, but I am going to be stalking you looking for that shift. I really think you'll get crosshairs again soon.

I'm always up for it...it's DH that's the problem. Something about going to school full time AND working full time. I don't know...I try to ignore it all.

LOL

I did have to laugh though, I was updating my chart for you and was asking him about when we BD'd during our vacation (I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing any of the times) and he was getting a kick out of the double x's, so he said, "We can go right now if you want to!" so that I could have another xx on my chart. LOL! I never would have imagined that FF would be an instrument in getting DH into bed!

Well alright, Teresa...I'm going to keep temping and see what happens! Although I do have to admit, I was really hoping that my cycles were going to start getting shorter.

I have to say I agree with Teresa....a lot of times, my temps will be higher, then keep getting lower before I O...

I like your XX's

keep it up!!

Oh, and welcome back!

DeepSouthMommy · #8 September 24th, 2009, 02:15 PM

Karin, I sure do hope that's what's going on. I've never had my temps drop like this before, so I didn't consider that so many women get temp drops before O. I guess we'll find out in a few days!

Thanks for the welcome back, I've missed you guys!

Btw, I like my x's too.

LOL

kbpeanut · #9 September 24th, 2009, 02:20 PM

Yeah, my temp went down to 97 this month before it started going up...took me a few cycles of comparing my FF charts (doing that overlay thing) to pick up the trend.

Here's some O dust for you!!

Ha, Michelle you are too funny with your XX's. I agree and think that you will be O'ing soon. My body usually dips down low, goes up a bit, drops a tad and then shoots back. Everyone's bodies are different, so yours could definitely be getting ready to O.

Now go BD some more and get some more XX's

HopefulMommy81 · #11 September 24th, 2009, 05:01 PM

Welcome back, Michelle! Glad you had a good time on your vacation! I really have no advice on the chart/O'ing but just wanted to say welcome back!

TeresaSuperMama · #12 September 24th, 2009, 06:35 PM

I think that dip is a good thing Michelle. Mine usually dips down right before O. I can't wait to see what your temps do in the next couple days. I sure hope you get an awesome temp spike in the next few days. Good luck!
