Stupid Temps...think this cycle is going to be a bust : (

I seriously don't think I should temp during the 2ww anymore, it just makes me sad. I seriously look at my chart and want to cry. It looks so similar to last month with the dip at 10dpo followed by a small rise and then AF. I figure that means all hope is lost again this cycle and that witchy poo is just around the corner. I don't even know if todays temp is remotely accurate either because DH and I both woke up at 3:33 when we heard a strange noise. I think I got maybe an hour and a half sleep after that

So for all I know it could be even lower than it is.

I really wanted a BFP for my birthday today, but I don't think I'll even bother testing.

Has anyone tried charting just from the end of AF until O is confirmed and then stopping? Does it make you more crazy or does it help not analyzing every rise and fall?

I feel the same as you do. I have questions about the validity of temps when waking in the night too.

This cycle was my first time charting and it has messed with my ability to sleep that's for sure!

(((hugs))) I feel your frustration. I hope you get that bfp all the same as it's not over until af gets there.

As for me I was unable to temp pre-o as we traveled and now I am temping post-o and it's driving me nuts!

I am thinking of doing the same thing you suggest, should this cycle be a bust for you. I may just temp to confirm o and leave the therm alone!

Blessings.

Can I join you?!? I had the same thing this am a major temp drop at 10DPO. Same thing happened last cycle but I was 12DPO. So I know AF will be here in a matter of days.

Well, I think your chart looks pretty good honestly. I can see why you get frustrated. If charting is wearing you out, take a break from it for a while. Hopefully, you will get a bfp this month and you won't have to look at a chart again. Good luck!

I have known many who only temp from the time AF leaves till they have O confirmed so they are not stressing it.

I almost stress more on it if I don't temp. LOL
