ok lovely ladies i have a question for you..this morning i woke up took my temp and it was 97.66 i did not get out of bed or anything but lay there for another half hour think i dozed..when i temped again it was 97.97..either way it is a temp jump..which temp should i use?..i am thinking if i use the higher one it would confirm o sooner?..

[Coley]

I think you've done the right thing by putting the first temp in.

That's an awfully big difference for only a half an hour... which is why I don't trust it. It's hard... but when Charting, you've gotta fight the urge to make your chart look the way you want it to look, ya know? It's tough... we all have times when we wanna monkey around with temps or whatever.

I do have to say that I think you have a very nice looking thermal shift there!! Today's temp is plenty high... and the only thing that will confirm O is the number of high temps, not the height of the temp itself.

Best of Luck & Baby

thanks Nicki i am happy that i have a nice looking thermal shift..umm how can you tell?..sorry i am still new to this..

[Miss. Impatient Bevis]

Agree with Nikki.

I agree too. When is your normal temping time and what time were these temperatures?
Are you asking how to tell the thermal shift?

The nice drop in temperature is a great sign. If you want to play legitimately go to tommorrow and enter in a 97.8 or 97.9 and see what it does. I did that with mine this month to see if I really was going to get CHs for CD11 this month

my normal temping time is between 6:15 and 6:45am usually the later time though..the first temp was at 6:15 and the 2nd temp was at normal time..thanks for the great tip Carrie i went on ff and played around..it looks like it's going to put my o day as yesterday..but i am positive it would of been CD19 because that was my last day of watery cm and my cp was high soft open..i understand now why you girls get frustrated with ff sometimes..

FF isnt perfect. It will give you the best guess... At least you know you did O and you timed as best as you could... Hopefully in a couple days you will have your CHS
