Why has my temperature rose twice in the space of a few days?

[BeccaT123]

Hi everyone,
I was wondering if you could please help me. I had a scan and was told I would likely ovulate day Sunday or Monday (Day 19 of cycle which varies but usually around 34/35 days). I used boots ovulation kits and the darkest line I got was on the Sunday. I presumed I would the ovulate Monday (the test that day was slightly lighter and non existent the Tuesday) I made sure I DTD Friday am, Saturday eve and Monday am so I am hoping I am covered. I also had some cramping Mon afternoon so I thought great that means I’ve probably ovulated then Tuesday am my basal temperature rose from 36.47 to 36.72. I thought that means confirmed ovulation? Hopefully it does. However I then got slight cramping again yesterday at 3 DPO and also spotting and this am my temperature has gone up again to 36.90! Now I’m worried I may have only just ovulated yesterday and won’t be covered? Or why has my temperature rose twice? Could it be implantation already? I’m so confused now, any help/advice would be really appreciated. Thanks!

@BeccaT123 It can't be implantation as that can happen earliest at 6DPO.

Temperature rises the day after ovulation and stays high for the rest of the cycle.

Thanks, but why has my temperature risen twice over the last few days? From 36.47 to 36.72 and now it’s 36.88 2 days later! Does this mean I didn’t ovulate when it rose the first time?

@BeccaT123 it doesn't just rise once and stay that one temperature for two weeks. It's merely supposed to be higher than during your pre ovulation stage. That doesn't mean it's static, it can go higher or dip a bit on a day to day basis.
