Temps

CD15 temp highest its been today tuck the temp correctly today and normally never goes above 36.6 but today it was 36.7. I think I ov two days ago good job we BDed 3 days in a row and we used "pre seed". I've not really had any EWCM this month (wish i new about the EWCM before this month as i always have it each and every month oh well least i no the signs now)that's why I reckon I OV about the time I used the "pre seed" or day after, as then I couldn't tell my CM.
Will keep BDing but looking forward to PG test!

my temp drops on day of af then goes up till af finishers, then its normakl again until i ovu

Okay here's one! Could i OV on my CD1 of AF as, i was CD26 36.3 and then CD1 36.7 or is that just normal at AF time!?

okayand thanks again.

well you still bding tonight, but be calm you can put ovulation on hold with worring

trace2 and Mum2FunkyDude(like the name) Thanks okay i will chill, pos ov-test again so more BDing tonight 4 days in a row DH will be happy, when i did take temp it was highest it had been thats why i was worried!

I would suggest you relax a bit, being stressed can affect your fertility and make you depressed if it's not working. If you miss a day you just make a note and continue with the next day, making sure you've crossed out the date on the chart to help you keep track. Continue the next day as you would normally, if it is near suspecting ov then take an ov test. Do you have a reasonable track record of say over 4-6 months to see exactly what your cycle looks like?

hi Babymad4num3 just take in morning and see what it brings, dont beat yourself up about it! you sound really down

What do i do tuck temp 1 1/2 hrs late and went to the toilet before taking temp!??

rubles, Know clue as to when i ov it's all over the place at the mo, I have 26-32 day cycle!

It's still possible that it was CD11 babymad, but it's not conculsive yet. Tomorrow will hopefully either be conclusively high or low which would tell us one way or the other. Don't stop BD-ing though. How long are your cycles normally? Do you have an idea of when you normally ovulate?

rubles my temp this mornng was a disappionting 36.5!

yes rubles i understand what you mean but i think at least i wont test coz when i get a dip my af comes that day some time but yes some times i have to wait all day and thats a killer, so two days befor would drive me mad,

I'm doing really well, thanks trace. (I'm on CD11, I'm always happy at this time of the month).

I actually find the thing of using my temp to predict AF coming is a mixed blessing as my temp has started to dip slightly a much as 2 days before AF comes which means I have 2 days of semi-depression before the final nail in the coffin comes with af. Sometimes I wonder if it would be better not knowing and staying hopeful until the last minute.

hi rubles how are you?? lol i am treible at writing this down, when other put it so simple

wannbe, where do i startyes you are right about doing it at the same time each moring, i do mine at 6, but say if i get up at 4.30 to go to loo i take it then because you get a better reading than going back to bed and doing it at 6 you have to have 3 more hours of rest to take it! like when i take mine at 6 its 36.0 to 36.3, and if i take at 4 its usaly 36.0 to 36.2 so not much diffrence,but if you start on day 1 of your cycle you may get a higher than normal as af can make it high, but when afs gone it usally settles down.
and i must say not everyone gets a dip befor ovulation( i dont) so thats why i do sticks too that way i know when i get a surge and a few days later if i get a rise in temp and lasts more than 3 days i know ive ovulated. does that make sence? i also find it very helpfull for knowing when af is comig too.

if you want to ask anything you know ill try my best to answer, good look i hope this helps i find temming addictive i hope you do.

Hi, I know I'm not trace "the temp guru" but wannabe you have that right.

Babymad, from reading attilathemeerkat's posts I have learnt that it is possible to have more than one LH surge in a month if your body gears up to ovulating but then doesn't manage it. Looking at your temps here I would guess that you may have ovulated on CD11 but got the pos test on the same day (this has happened to me on the last 2 months). You'll need to see what tomorrow's temp is.

babymad, looks like you have a high cover line, but its not a problem, and your only on day 12 , the postive on sticks can just mean youve had a surge but not mean yove ovultated, until you have had a higher than cover line temp for 3 days hope this helps you

Had enough of these flipping ov-test, did an ov-test late yesterday pos again after two neg's, only on day CD12 and already had two pos test's this cycle.
Still doing temp cant make head or tail of it, nothing new there!

CD2-36.4,
CD3-36.5,
CD4-36.4,
CD5-36.3
CD6-36.6,
CD7-36.5 a pos ov-test
CD8-36.4,
CD9-36.2
CD10-36.4
CD11-36.3 a pos ov-test
CD12-36.6

Both 36.6 had a pos-ov-test either before or after, what's that all about!

am bumping this thread because I have decided to start doing my temp, so ... trace ... oh wise one, tell me if I have this right ...

Temp should stay same or around the same until ovulation, and then it rises after ovulation is that right? and then stays raised and dips when af is iminent? I've never done this before and have no idea what I'm doing but having read up I think that's how it works but am ready to be told I've got it wrong :O

V disappointed this morning- temp back from 'dip' of 35.8 to coverline (36.2). Too late according to my research for it to have been ov dip.

Grrrrrr.

so my little swimmers wont go down the plughole? lol

Babymad4num3 no

pendulum dont worry i like be asked i will say its vert addictive though. hope you found what you was looking for

Thanks trace, feel a bit of a dunce as have just checked internet and found lots about temp dip. Sorry- will do some basic research before asking next time I have a book but it's not v detailed compared with some of the websites I just turned up and didn't say anything about a dip.

As you say, fingers crossed for tomorrow.

Thanks again for your time xx

A little question dose having a baths affect the sperm?
