There is so much info on charting! It takes a while to learn what the patterns mean and how to do it, but after the first month its like second nature. As long as you take your temp at the same time each day you'll be fine (I set my phone alarm for 6:30 and then I go back to sleep if I need to). Maybe you've already learned the basics but I suggest:

Take the free course from fertility friend (you can read it or listen to the podcast): https://www.fertilityfriend.com/courses/

Buy the book "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" by Toni Weschler- it is great!

I've just got into temping a couple cycles ago. I bought a bbt back in 2009 but didn't feel like actually doing it. Once I started I got hooked. I basically temp the same time every morning and FF does the rest. Oh you also chart you +/- OPK's and HPT's and CM. I find it really helpful, and it's nice to see when you actually ovulate. Wishing you lots of luck!
