Temp plummeted further this morning so no hope now.

Not too worried though because we get our puppy on Sunday, so going to have our hands full!

Sorry Shutterbug! How many DPO are you now?

Im 7-8 DPO does anyone know if anyone has ever gotten a BFP at 8DPO?

Am 11dpo now.

I'd hang fire if I were you until at least 10dpo.

So I never have taken my temp to chart my cycle, what kind of thermometer do you use? If I get a BFN, then next time I might try taking temps, because I am not positive when I O. I charted with just CP and CM and used OPK but my Cervix never got soft, but I did get all the other signs. The OPK was only positive 1 time and then neg the next day so I think my O was Nov 15 or in the morning of the 16 because by noon on the 16th the line on the OPK was not as strong as the day before and more faint than the control line. I would really like to know how to do temps, but it seems so hard to do since you have to do it before you get out of bed, and with having a 21 month old, I am sure that would be hard!

i used one called Babymad which is specifically for BBT. I set my alarm for 7am but if I'm woken earlier I'll take it then and just note the time down. I do vaginal temps as the temperature in our house can drop really low and it seems to affect oral temps - its been a lot more stable since doing vaginal, bit icky though

^ what she said. Measuring bbt is key, it's the easiest way I can confirm what the opk's are saying and since we are swaying, our cm isn't always a reliable sign. Set the alarm if you need to for 10 mins before toddlers wake time, but I just wait til I hear a cry, stick the thermometer straight in and it only takes 30 seconds or so to read, then up I get.

I record it on a free website and app called fertility friend. It's just so much easier!

I take oral temps but am changing to vaginal temps from af this cycle because I have a feeling I sometimes sleep with my mouth open then wake up and temp and its a bit lower than it should be.

The thermometers are on eBay or amazon, called BBT thermometers, or Basil Body Temperature thermometers, possibly sometimes Ovulation thermometers. They look like the kind you stick under a kid's arm or tongue but have 2 decimal places after the number, so 98.00 for example.

Mine cost $10!

Yay! Congrats! Love the digitals, so easy.

Can you send a link to the private forum you were talking about? I don't know where it is, after 3 months on here I still don't have time to hunt around and get to know the place!
