I posted this on the TTC board, but I would love your opinions as well. I'm new on this board, as I am new to charting. This is my first month and I thought I had the charting thing down, but maybe I don't. Can someone please look at my chart and tell me if I'm just crazy or what?! Is it normal to have so many temp dips? I mean, they are ALL OVER THE PLACE! I thought I had lready O'd, but then it dropped this morning. My cp is low and closed and no more cm, so I know I'm not Oing, but why would my temp dip? I took it at my normal time, then just for kicks, I took it about 45 minutes later, before I got out of bed and it was much higher, 97.87. What the??!!!!

It doesn't look like you ahve O'd yet. You might be gearing up to O. Once you O and get a clear thermal shift, your temps won't look so screwy.

Hmmm...making this up as I go along, but with your EWCM & HS cervix yesterday, maybe you o'd in the middle of the night, so it didn't trigger the temp spike yet, but your fertility signs have stopped??? I don't even know if that's possible, but it sounds kinda reasonable, lol. I'm sure someone else will pipe up if I'm totally wrong, lol.

Yeah, exactly. It doesn't make sense. With my daughter, they figured that I ovulated on cd 15, and by the way I felt and all my signs, it was looking that way this month. But now, I just don't know. What's wierd is that I was SO HOT all night long! I kept kicking off the covers and even got up in the middle of the night b/c I was so uncomfortable. Then when I temped this morning, it was really low, then really high not even an hour later! Honestly, I think I'm just going to stop. I wasn't TTC when I got preggo with DD, so maybe I'm just obsessing over it way too much. Thanks for your input, but I don't have a clue what my body is doing and I'm obviously doing a horrible job at trying to interpret it, so I think I'll just throw in the towel.
