Glad you are temping it will tell you so much about your cycle. I have learned so much from my Chinese doctor about different bbt patterns and what they mean. If you have any questions please feel free to ask me this way you will know your lap length without a doubt. Also I agree with you and Bonnie. I would way rather know I conceived even if it doesn't work out than know that I haven't conceived at all. Just know it will happen!

Bonnie- good luck with your job interview. That would be great to have a job closer. I couldn't even imagine a commute like that! I live maybe 10 mins from work.

thanks
im sure it will be a pay cut but i will gain it back
i used to live 10 minutes away from hospital until i moved in with DB in the fall

what have you learned about the patterns?
i am thinking of maybe temping again next cycle-idk

hi ladies! good morning! I am in good spirits today.
I had a nice conversation with DH last night about the rollercoaster of a day i had yesterday and I went to bed with big smile on my face knowing that we will have our baby when it is right.
Anyways, yes, so good to have you both temping to ask questions. This morning, which is CD 2 for me (and by the way, AF with came with all her might last night and this AM), i temped and my temp was 97.70. I recorded that on my little FF app on my phone. My BBT is on my night stand so this AM when alarm range I stretched my arm to grab it, put it in my mouth and when it beeped i sat down and recorded the temp. It seemed to take forever to take the temp. Is that normal? Hight? I tried to move the least possible to get an an accurate reading.
Yesterday afternoon I temped for the heck of it and it was in the highs 98...that's strange, no? I was really red in the face yesterday thought. I did not record that because it was not first thing in the AM so I skipped on day 1 since I bought the BBT mid morning.

Bonnie join the temp team this cycle. It will be fun to discuss with you the temps! This is my very first time.

Good luck at the interview! Yes, close to home is way better...specially with a little baby ;-)

Dysan. That's exactly what I do. Bbt on nightstand. Alarm goes off. Pop in the bbt. Wait ages for the beep. Try to shove bbt quickly under pillow to muffle beep and not wake DB. then head to bathroom and record temp in ff.

It's normal that it was higher mid day. By taking it after sleep before moving you are getting a true resting temp so subtle fluctuations in hormones can be easily detected-it's quite interesting to see the patterns and similarities once you have a few months to look at and ff makes it easy to see the charts overlaying each other.

Closet to home is just for short term. Our plan has been for me to be a SAHM when baby comes and finish school. At this rate I may finish before jr appears! JK-unless I took a crazy load I won't be finished in time....unless jr just takes that long to show up! I have 9 classes after this semester ends.

DB was a SAHD and I always had to work let daycare do the work. He understands the importance of having a patent home if possible. So I really look forward to what I hate to call it but a re-do. A chance to do it right -or at least better. :-)

You will get your lo soon I just know it. In the meantime I hope you get that job closer to home!
As far as the patterns go I would say your charts look pretty good Bonnie. I'm no expert but you have a very good distinction between pre-o and post-o temps. You have a good solid lp and your temps are fairly steady. Things to look for are that overall the temps are low or that there isn't a big difference between pre and post o temps. Also there is pattern that isn't good that the temps look "sawtooth" up and down eratically. All of these would indicate a deficiency in your body according to Chinese medecine.

Dysan I will look at your chart when you have a few more temps to see what I think ok?

AFM- 6dpo today and just waiting it out. Feeling good today although I cried on my way to work when a song came on the radio

Yes, that would be great! But you will need to let me know how to post the link here and have it constantly like you have it. My name there is Dysan1 not sure if you can search it or what...

Dysan
Go to the sharing menu on ff and get code. Copy the code into you bnb signature then we can all see!
I will but mine back up. Think of temping next week anyway so I have a heads up on when af is going to show! Nice for a bit of advanced warning!

Mg-what is your testing plan?

Hi ladies
How's everyone? I have had 2 sick children this past week but my little 2yr old hasn't been well these past few days I wasn't feeling and still not today as this virus is slowly makes the rounds! Typical been off for a week holidays and couldn't leave the house as they were ill! Hoping it passes in the next few days.
Afm nothing new to report just tired currently 5dpo and not looking forward to my return to work on Monday hope everyone is well

Sorry about your kids being sick Fluffy. Hope everyone gets well soon.
How is everyone else doing?
AFM- 7dpo and feeling about the same as I do every other month except have felt quite weepy the last few days. Talking on the phone with Ds last night after his hockey game(he's in Vancouver for yet another hockey tournament) and I had tears streaming down my face
