I'm attempting to chart my temps for the first time this month. I linked my chart to my signature. I'm only on CD 6 but I was just curious is it normal for temps to fluctuate as much as mine are in the first week? I am on Clomid so I don't know if that changes anything. Thanks!
 
I've seen heaps of charts fluctuate that much! I think you are fine
 
Several things can affect your temp too.
Temping early, less than 3 hours sleep prior, standing up/moving before temping, sleeping with mouth open to name a few.
Once you've done a few months you'll see your patterns.
I have bought VIP membership and it's been great, but my patterns are all over the show :(
 
Thanks! I temp before I get out of bed between 5:30-6:00am every morning after sleeping at least 4 hours. I definitely sleep with my mouth open though. I will check out the paid membership
 
If you sleep with your mouth open it can give you very wide range readings.
I'm an oral temper but sleep with my mouth closed.
The other option is to temp vaginally, can't shed much light on this as I've not done it.
 
I temp vaginally and its brilliant so much mor eaccurate readings and my chart is a lot more stable x
