Temp Dropped at night, but up in the morning

Have any of you been obsessed with taking your temp? I have been praying for my temps to stay up and way above cover line this cycle. Usually they just hover right above.

Last night, I took my temp to see what it was- around 97.8 (I do this every night). I thought perhaps my body temp was falling. :( But then, this morning it was up at 98.5! Perhaps a implantation dip (7dpo)?

I know that it isn't empirical to look at your temp during the day, but it should be higher than your bbt anyway.

Thoughts?

I think my temps are always quite low in the night compared to my time of waking in the morning... the longer i lie in bed the higher the temps seem to be.

To be honest i think the only reliable way of temping is by only using the morning temps.

good luck... you don't need an impantation dip in order to be preggers anyways :)
 
True- though the theory suggests that your body temperature would be higher as you have been moving around all day.

But I think being snuggled in bed with warm blankets could increase my body temp!

:flower:
 
Strange as it seems i don't think the external temps make much difference on your bbt unless it is really extreme temps i guess.

I was forever taking my temps through out the day and you are right they tend to be higher at that time but i haven't tried it at night time when i have been sat down resting for a while.

I now have to limit myself to temping once a day because i am quite likely to drive myself nuts otherwise.

I agree my temps in the morning are always higher than when I temp randomly throughout the day. I am a POAS/BBT addict!
 
Whoa, that is weird!

I do have to say what scared me is that the last few nights my temp at night was pretty similar to my BBT temps that week >98.4. Last night it was 97.8 so I thought that was a big difference.

Sometimes I think I am wearing my battery out too soon! :wacko:

Temping is awesome! I don't know how other people TTC without it, I find it really helpful.
 
I temped in the bath last night cos i read you shouldn't let your temp go over 102! DH looked at me like i was crazy!
(i got out at 99.8!)
 
i think this is totally weird too. I took mine last night after being on the go all day and it was 36.27!!! My bbt this morning was 36.77 - how come!
 
It might due to the fact when you are active, the energy converted to heat is lost to your environment. When you are sleeping, your blankets, etc, create insulation.

My thermometer was struggling to get past 96ish this afternoon as a test. I doubt my thermometer is correct!
