I am new to charting and new to TTC. I started temping 3 days ago.. Received the same temp two days in a row (yes, I have a Walgreens pink and white one. I've already read about the issues). When I got home from work yesterday, I took a OPK and got a +. When I took my temp this morning, it dropped quite a bit.

What does that even mean?

Thanks so much!!

My guess is you are probably O'ing today or tomorrow!!!!! Many women experience a temp dip on the day of O.........I have been noticing I get a big temp drop the day before I O, then it rises just a little on the day of O, then the next day I get a bigger rise. Have fun bd'ing!!!!!

have you been taking your temps at a consistant time? a +OPK, you have 12-36 hrs before the egg drop. so i would advise BDing the day of the +OPK, next day, and following day.

with everything that has been said so far. I know about the 12-36 hour rule, but I will sometimes O the same day as my + OPK... so I definitely suggest

Have fun tryin' to catch that egg!!
