Any takers?? I'm lost as to my dip today... a bit early for any kind of an implantation dip, eh?

stress or lack of sleep--even not getting fully past REM if you are 'sleeping' technically can effect temps.....or allergies/illness can throw your body off too

Charts are great, but temps don't tell all....the month I actually got preggo the first time my temps NEVER made sense....up/down/all around all cycle....I really totally believed it was annovulatory until we got a positive result! So, you never know! Good luck!

well, I'm thinking that I didn't ever ovulate, too. BUT, I guess we'll see eh! At least I don't feel stressed about getting a BFP this cycle... I definitely have peace no matter what the outcome... I'm interested to find out, sure, but not stressed~ :) Thanks for replying, Bree!

My postpartum brain is a little too fuzzy to crack out my NFP book and mess with shaving temps or such stuff, but I wouldn't worry about the fluke temp myself. It looks like you ovulated somewhere around day 17ish or so, based on your temps and your dry up. Your dry up is much clearer than your temps--are you taking your temps around the same day every day?

I had a dip in my chart 4 dpo with jo' but then I had another dip like 3 days before i got my bfp.
It could be an anovulatory cycle but you won't really know that until later.
And breezy is right, sleeping with the window open or ac. different things. but anyhow, I'm gonna start stalking your chart.

Hey gals! Yeah, Ruth, I take my temp at the same time every morning. I had a couple morning there where it was 7:20 or 7:40 instead of seven on the dot... but every other morning it's been regular. My cramping and backache has gotten worse today... so I think AF might actually show up earlier than usual. I don't remember ever having cramping and backache only to wind up with a BFP, before. I guess we'll see in another week, eh? Thanks for the support and cheerleading! :)

Temps back up today... had a very fitful night of sleep... I was thinking this morning that I've been so focused on taking my temp at the same time every morning that I hadn't paid attention to how much I'm up in the night/early morning. I typically wake up at four or five to feed/change Eliya... so this chart is just totally bogus... I have NO idea what's accurate. BUT... either way... AF is going to be here in a week or two, and I'll have a fresh cycle to start on. ;) I think i'm going to start vag temping like Esther. Esther, did you find it was more accurate??

I found it to be more accurate and if I got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom it didn't change my temps.
Consistency is really the key in charting. so if af comes then have fun next month!
