Morning

We have a 6 month old and are ttc #2.

This is now 2nd cycle since period came back end Feb and I am tracking bbt each morning.
I'm a bit puzzled by some of the bbt readings this time around and would appreciate some input.

I've noticed that my 'resting' bbt seems lower this time around, compared to when I was trying for #1.

I have a 27day cycle and ov on day 13.

In the post ovulation phase, I've noticed my bbt seems to max at 37deg and stay there before gently decreasing approx 3-4 days to 36.3 or 4 for period.

Compare this to when ttc #1: post ov temp was higher, generally at 37.1 or .2 before decreasing for period.

I am concerned that my resting bbt now is lower than it was the first time around, and if this somehow flags up a potential issue?
I am not bf, not really getting up in the night either, so don't understand why resting bbt is lower.

I would v much appreciate any thoughts or suggestions. I am taking folic acid and I am in early 40s.
