I know how you feel! TTC will definitely make you go a little mad!! Lol hopefully your test will give you some answers! Maybe your cycle
Will just be longer due to the later ovulation. Trying to figure
Out your body is very confusing!! It's possible that you missed your surge when you tested, but in not sure. This cycle I had 2 or 3 days of positives...which I think is also strange! I had a temp rise this morning, but FF has to see 3 consecutive days of temp rises to consider you past O...so I'm still not sure if I did or not! Hopefully so!
I Recconend trying the temp thing, if you are
Able to test everyday at the same time. It's a little stressful, but supposed to be the only way to know if you for sure O or not.
Well, good luck friend!! Keep BDing!! fX good test results!!!

Thank you BByFEver! I am going batty. My schedule with work and my two step kids has been all over the place this week so I wasnt able to test at the same time every day like I did last month so maybe I just missed it. I am going to pick up a basal body thermometer tomorrow. Can I start temping the following morning or should I wait til CD 1? I hope I can figure this all out. I am trying to have as much information as I possibly can for when I meet the RE.
I'm currently on CD 23 so I'm officially in my TWW. Poor DH but I plan on til shows her ugly face. Praying for a miracle.

Good Luck to you as well! Baby

Yes, I would go ahead and start tomorrow, just to get in the habit of doing it. You won't be able to know if your temp shift happened this cycle or not, but at least you will get used to taking it and recording it. Make sure to do it at the same time everyday and literally have the thermometer right next to you and pop it in your mouth as soon as your alarm goes off. It's crazy how much it can fluctuate!!
You will feel much better next cycle when you can confirm ovulation! I was a little nervous before my temp went up, but when it did I could breathe a sigh of
Relief!!
Good luck with the 2ww!!!

Thanks for the advice as always. Stupid question.....I tend to wake up between 3&5 to go pee should I take my temp then or wait til my alarm goes off at 7?

Not stupid!! It's so confusing! Lol Honestly, I've read that you need a full 6 hours of Undisturbed sleep each time for it to be accurate, so if you tend to need the restroom every night, I would set your alarm for the normal time you need to go and take it then. Because once you get up and move around it
Won't be accurate. Hope this helps!!

So Umm since putting the thermometer by my bed I haven't been waking up but just tossing and turning. I did wake up at like 2am this morning and went back to sleep til 715 so I took my temp when I woke up. Of course I have no idea what it means since its the first day. I have a feeling I am not going to be very good at this.

I'm currently roughly 7-8dpo. I never had a positive opk but I was testing at all sorts of weird times cuz I was so busy with the my step kids so I'm thinking I missed it. However DH and I were quite busy so my fingers are crossed. I've had nausea the past 3 days, headache, lower back pain, fatigue and now today some crampy gassy feeling. Of course I know this could just be PMS but guess we will see. AF is due Monday and I plan on holding out til she shows up or doesn't to test. Grr! Not a fan of the TWW.
