looking for some help please :)

23rd I had a positive OPK with EWCM, 24th I also had the same EWCM and another positive test - the (test looked just as positive as the peak one to be fair) and the 25th the test was negative with the tiniest amount of EWCM.

looking at my chart I was thinking today I would get my 3rd temp rise.. but nope, it’s dropped!! I did wake up cold today but I was also slightly cold yesterday morning 🤷🏻‍♀️

is it possible my BBT will go up from tomorrow or is it game over now? I have waited 3 months for a positive OPK as I have PCOS, I feel so deflated now 😔 thank you x

BBT is really hard to get consistent results from - waking up feeling cold could easily be enough to throw it off. I don't think you're out yet, think this is just an anomalous result as it definitely looks like a clear peak so you should have ovulated. And then your temp should stay high regardless until around day 8 at least.

Thank you! Fingers crossed that is the case 🥴!! If I didn’t have the two increased temperatures I wouldn’t have thought anything of it and just waited for it to gradually rise, but the 2 rises followed by a drop has thrown me lol!
Jheez, I underestimated how stressful TTC is! X

Yeah it's a nightmare. I'm a rubbish light sleeper so could never get consistent results from bbt so just LH testing which for me worked a treat.

Same here, light sleeper and shift work.. makes it seem so much harder to track bbt 😖!! I see why some people ditch tracking everything as it definitely is stressful lol

Well, natural cycles confirmed my ovulation today.. they put it as the 23rd, day of my 1st peak. I would have thought I’d need another 2 rises before it confirmed ovulation!
confused but we shall see how my temp goes now over the next few days x
