Missing Temp Rise?

Feb 09, 2010 14:17

Hello, ladies!

DH and I are TTA and I am trying to figure out if I've O'd already. (Obviously, rule of thumb in a TTA case is to assume I haven't yet, but I'd like to know for period-prediction if nothing else!)

I'm on my 6th cycle after getting off HBC in July, and currently on CD29. On CD25 (right around when I usually O), I had all of my ( Read more... )

temp shift, temperature weirdness

Not as such; I'm charting in GoogleDocs. Here's a screen shot (click to enlarge):

Blue line is all recorded temperatures; where they're clearly aberrations, e.g. due to not sleeping well enough, etc, the "corrected temp" line is gold. E.G.: today, my temp went almost up to 97, but this is because I woke up significantly before temping.

The O signs, including CM, stopped just after the last spike "up" before the (aberrant) dip down to 96.2.

Okay, that works too. If you'd like I could also send an invite to fertilityfriend (pretty sure it gives both people 5 free VIP days then, not sure though).

I don't think it's common to O without a thermal shift, however I knwo that sometimes the thermal shift can take a few days to catch up. I think that your low spot at 96.2 is either a.) possible ovulation or gearing up to O, you have another smaller dip after that. I would give it a couple more days and see if your temp continues to rise (because it looks like it is at least in process of that now).

There currently isn't enough of a thermal shift to show ovulation, sorry. I'm TTA as well and I know that the wait can be a pain.

Also, I'd try and stick with the blue temperatures for right now, I often find that my temp actually goes DOWN significantly with waking up, not go up.

I actually really prefer being able to have full control over the charting -- especially since I've got my LadyComp, too. :) But thank you!

My temps dropped back again yesterday and today and are consistent with the temps before the spike "up" on Wednesday, so I'm definitely thinking no ovulation. XD Ah, well!

I started (presumably anovulatory) bleeding this morning, which is wayyyy too short for a LP for me, so that confirms it.

Ooh, a ladycomp. I've heard lots of good things about them . :)

Hopefully this upcoming cycle will be back to normal for you.
