Calling all charters: What is going on here?

[Pipbin]

So this is my first month of temping. I have charted for a while but just used OPKs and to keep a record of BDing.

I had a positive OPK on Friday but still no OV according to my temps. Can someone take a look and tell me what they think is going on?
Cheers

I have a 35 day cycle as a rule btw.

Pip, does your thermometer not have a memory so that after it beeps if you switch it off accidentally it shows you the last temp? The thermometer that i have for charting is a bendy one :). I get way higher temps if i take it under my pits.

It does have a memory. At the moment I'm off work (half term yay) so I'm waking up, sticking a thermometer in my mouth, pulling it out when it goes beep, then inputting the temp into fertility friend later.

Tbh it's the thought of taking it in my lady bits is a bit icky.

Lucky you, wish i could snuggle back down to sleep instead of flying out of bed. Hope u get your bfp this month . Let us know ! I found loads of info on charting in the toni weshler book as well as on her site so have a mooch if you have time.

Mine has a memory too, but I don'y find I get higher temps from pots than in mouth.

At the start I was taking it orally, then doing under armpit, and was the same, did antibac it inbetween armpit and mouth though btw!

Apparently doing fanjo temping is will give you more accurate and consistent temps. I'm on my second cycle of fanjo temping, and my chart looks way less rocky. It is sometimes hard to hear the beep though! (And DH thinks it is hilarious)

Yes I think it can be a good idea to try doing it vaginally if your chart is hard to interpret or your thermal shift is not very marked. I've always just stuck to my mouth because even though my temp does go up and down quite a lot my overall 'range' of temps is wide and the thermal shift has always been v. clear. Worth considering though if you're having probs.

do you need a special fanjo thermometer? Or am I being really think?!

thick obv. doh!

The thermometer I got from Amazon here can be used in your hooha.
DH asked if I should be using it up there this morning. I said that I could but I didn't want to. He said, 'well there is too much getting shoved up there anyway'!

Nice DH pipbin, I reckon if men had to have babies we would not have any at all :) Smurfing a flexible thermometer is easier to use when you are half asleep !

pipbin, typical man!! I may try fanjo temp testing, and see if the results differ, if it's supposed to be more accurate.

This is going to sound so grim but what is putting me of it that we generally SWI before going to sleep. Therefore, even though I have been to the loo after SWI, my fanjo could be cleaner.
