I woke up at my regular time and took my temp 98.1. Went back to sleep for about 10 mins and took it again, 97.8. Why did I do that? Really, te only reason was because I wanted to stay in bed for a little longer. I am a goof. I put the lower temp on my chart just to see how it looks, of course it looks like an implantation dip, so I left it because it makes me happy. I will probably change it back to 98.1.

I think it goes to show though why we REALLY should only take it once and not try to be slick and keep temping over and over.

If it makes you feel any better I've done that once too. For different reasons though.

For me, it was a day that I "really" awoke much, much earlier than my normal time. I didn't temp, but 2.5 hours later temped twice, half hour apart (dozing in between). My first temp was higher (probably from not returning to resting temp fully) and then another temp was a bit lower ~0.3 degrees difference. I took the lowest temp.

Well...since it was during the 2ww I figured the lower might be more .... real. kwim? The first seemed too high! I probably should've kept the high one!

Ive taken mine more than once but I always use the first.

For some reason mine is never different. I took it at 4am and it was 37.0 then I took it again at 10am and it was still 37.0 :S

As I read this post all I can think is that is so me! I usually take my temp at 7am, I wroke up at 615 and temped. I was half way awake and I think that it wasnt in my mouth all of the way because I got 97.2. I fell right back asleep and temped again at 710 and it was 97.9. I used the higher temp. Still went down but its ok!

Hahaha I do that too.. it drives me crazy!!

I always take my temp 1st thing.. but then I become convinced that maybe it wasn't in my mouth the correct way or something weird.. so then I take it again 10 minutes later. It's always different, then I spend the rest of the month wondering which one was correct.

I usually use the 1st one..

I've been good this month so far though. It helps if I get up right after I take my temp the 1st time. Ha but easier said than done!! I'm the queen of the snooze button

hehe, I should do that today. I took it at my normal time, but only slept like 45 mins, so it isn't accurate anyway.
