I work third, so I sleep from 8am to 4pm, and usually take my temp at 4pm. Well, yesterday night I was off and slept from 9pm until 7am. I took my temp at 7 am and it was 97.1. I BD (just in case), then went back to sleep. I woke up at 2pm and my BBT was 97.9. Was it too much sleep or did I O?

If you usually take your BBT at 4 pm, you can't compare one taken at 7 am ... and shouldn't (but CAN) compare one taken at 2 pm. Time is really important with this.

What was the one from 4 pm day before yesterday?

And you really should chart your temps (do you?) on a graph. Not everyone gets a huge jump. Sometimes the shift is only a few tenths of a degree and you have to look for the tiny biphasic pattern. What is/was your cervical fluid like? If it was, say, sticky you probably haven't O'd yet but if it was like eggwhites you might have.

We don't have enough info to say.

Well, you can't really know from just one temperature, especially since it was disturbed (not taken at your usual time).

You can tell from your mucus pattern however. If you have been observing mucus and saw a developing, changing pattern (it got progressively wetter and more lubricative), and yesterday was slippery, and today you are drastically drier than you have been in the last few days - then yes, yesterday was your fertility Peak. If no developing changing pattern, no Peak. No slippery? No Peak. Not drastically drier? No Peak.

Does that help?

You'll need a few more temps to confirm O, keep bding just in case!

ok, thanks. I do chart everyday, just on paper. Today at 4pm it was 97.2. I guess I'll keep going. I'm tired from TTC (LOL)!
