so the basis is that you take your temperature at the same time every morning first thing you do when you wake up, still laying in bed. You should have at least 3 hours of uninterrupted sleep. This is your basal body temp. It will rise and fall throughout your cycle cluing you in on Ovulation, implantation, and AF. For instance.. if you click on my signature that says "My Chart" you'll see all my temps. you normally stay within a few degrees for each phase. So during my AF my temps seem to always make an M on the chart. Then post AF/pre O I'm around 97.5. At O time your temp dips and then immediately spikes up and stays elevated until AF is about to arrive. For me, it helps me know that AF is coming because I'll all of a sudden go from a 98.5 to a 97.3. For those whom don't know when they O temping helps tell that too.
so what I do is at the same time every morning I roll over, grab the thermometer, and temp. I immediately log it THEN get up to pee or let the dogs out. It takes some getting used to but after time it becomes easier.

is officially here. Not going to get upset as this was only our first cycle! But definitely not going to get caught up in "symptoms" this month. Going to do OPKs as well since I have nooo idea when I O'd this cycle.
... that witch!! Grrrr!!
but you are looking on the bright side. a new cycle means a new start and an opportunity to try new things
