Temping

[LadyBug923]

Hi ladies!! I'm relatively new to TTC and could use all the advice I could get! I was pregnant last cycle but unfortunately ended in m/c. Since then I've been working around the clock getting my cycle perfectly balanced so I can try again for baby #1. I've been using apps, taking vitex, and doing anything else I can think of to help spread my baby dust! I've been attempting but not succeeding at tracking my O with temping. I have a question for the temp pros though....I work a hectic schedule...some nights grave shift, some swing shifts, and a day shift here and there too. So I am never waking up at the same time and my temps are all over the place! Help! When do you suggest the best time to temp daily (2x daily maybe?) would be for me?! Any other advice much appreciated good luck everyone!!!

No, do not temp two times a day! The only temp that matters is your resting temp after you sleep (and ideally have 3 hours).

Honestly, you should just do your very best to temp, but if you never wake up at the same time maybe temping just isn't for you.

Agreed.

There are other ways to know if you're fertile, by checking your CM and knowing the position of your cervix since you aren't able to have a steady temping time. There is still hope!

Do you all think temping within 30min of the same time every day is good enough?

Yes...I often temp 30 min early on the weekends just because I wake up and want to get out of bed. FF still gives me solid circles and I still have clear shifts.
