i woke up at 5am this morning and knew i had 30 mins until i had to take my temp so i went back to sleep but it was a light sleep and i know i tossed and turned a bit... my temp was way up compared to yesterdays... so my question is.. does tossing and turning make your temp rise??

Thank you

I had the same thing happen to me. I think the ff site says that if you wake up within 2 or 3 hours before your are due to wake up, you should take it right away... lemme check on that ill get back to you.

Here is what the site says
Different Waking Times

One or two temperatures taken at different times during your cycle should not have too much impact on your chart especially if they are not close to ovulation time. Normally there is no need to adjust your temperature. If you want to use the temperature adjuster once or twice when it is not too close to ovulation, that should not pose a significant problem. More than a couple of temperatures taken at different times, however, can adversely effect the interpretation of your chart. You should try to avoid using the temperature adjuster if possible since adjusted temperatures are not nearly as accurate as those you record daily at the same time. You may find it useful to set an alarm so that you can take your temperature at the same time every day. You can just take your temperature and go right back to sleep if you do not have to get up right away. If your partner gets up at the same time every day, you can ask to be briefly woken up so you can take your temperature. Your BBT thermometer will store the reading for you until you can record it.

Night Waking

If you have to get up in the night and it is unavoidable, like having to take care of a small child, or if you have to go to the bathroom, just do the best you can. Take your temperature as close as you can to the same time each morning and choose a time that is likely to be when you have had the most sleep. For example, if your toddler wakes up every morning at 6 am, then take your temperature at that time, even if you go back to sleep. Try to avoid taking your temperature in the middle of the night, though, even if you seem to always get up at the same time in the middle of the night. Temperatures taken in the morning show a clearer biphasic curve and the time is more predictable.

This happens to me sometimes. I'd just mark it on your chart and if you think it's off you can mark it as sleep deprived.
