Confused again...

Okay, this cycle is throwing me for a loop and I'm beginning to think something is really wrong with my body.
History: I had 5 positive OPKs in a row from CD21-CD25. I was pretty sure I had O'd on CD24...until I took my temp this morning. It was 97.25! I tend to have lower body temps, but this is NOT a normal post-O temp for me!. It was still high enough to give me cross hairs, but I'm seriously questioning whether I actually O'd or not. I've never had an annovulatory cycle, and I've never had a cycle where it wasn't pretty clear by 2-3 DPO (or earlier) that I had O'd.
If I did, I'm pretty sure it was what you would call a "weak ovulation". I did drop down on the vitamin B6 I was taking from a megadose to 50mg of a B50 complex....and I'm wondering if this is the result. If I did O, maybe I'm going to have like a 3 day LP? I'm beyond frustrated and confused. Pre-baby my cycles were regular and I had no idea why I wasn't getting pregnant. This time around, I can see why....my body just plain sucks!!

Maybe that is a fallback rise? I know my temp will dip on the 3rd day or so too....I am not a chart expert, I am sure some one will have a better answer....but at least you are still above coverline!

I've never had a fallback rise before, but I guess you never know...I do like that explanation better than my body just sucking...

It looks very much like it could be a fallback rise. I have one just about every single cycle. My temp will shoot up the day after O, then drop back down the next day only to recover and remain high for the remainder of my cycle until around CD 11 or so.

Go ahead... take a look through my charts and you'll see. (I hid my FF link in my little balloon ticker thingie) It's a perfectly normal shift pattern.
