Default Charting Temps...

Hi all,

Very stupid and ignorant question I'm sure, but I'm trying to chart my temps but I guess i don;t really understand what I am looking for or whats normal as I have only have 2 periods naturally and that was when I was 17.

My theory is....

I started with a low temp and then it went up and was the same for 2 days (I think this is when ovulation may have occured - if I even did), then my temp kept increasing and today it has dropped down..

Is this normal? This has been taken over a week.

Is there a pattern? sudden rise in temp at ovulation or just after?, sudden drop in waiting for period??

Im sorry Im learning, but I have no idea what I am doing!

Thanks!

Hi
you need to sign up with FertilityFriend or ovusoft when charting because you have to look at the whole picture instead of day to day temps. You should have low temps pre-O (not always the case)and high temps after.
Some people have a dip at ovulation and some dont...

I agree with the PP that you should start charting you temps. I suggest ovusoft.com's SW its $30 BUT its yours forever and you never have to pay another penny, whereas FF charges for anything more than just a chart.

Like the PP said its the big picture that counts and not the individual temps.
THIS WEBPAGE may answer some of your questions.

Elkanah, you can submit your chart here to get more opinions on it. Post here your BBT chart, for reference, questions and comparisons!
It's hard to say anything about your chart yet as there a just couple of temperatures there. But the dip you had yesterday could be meaningless as it is an open circle.
