    Righty-ho. This sharing malarkey is a bit complex, but hopefully this works.

    Unfortunately the witch has fully shown today, so CD1 for me scarly. :( Well done for doing the list today.
    Sorry to hear that sm :(

    DJ: your chart also shows you took the temps at different times than normal. Which can make a difference. If the glob of CM is unusual I would say it could be a good sign :) When are you testing? FF seems to think you're due on tomorrow?

    Linky worked :D

    Day 6 is typically too soon for an implantation dip, but not impossible. It's more likely that the other days were implantation, but I am not sure how long it affects temps for. Sorry.

    Just for a comparison though, I seem to esperience a temp dip at 3DPO for some reason. It definitely isn't implantation, so I don't know what causes that.

    I'm sorry, I wish I could be more helpful. How long is your usual LP?

    I read about different chart patterns, and there's a name for your 3dpo. Something like "bounceback" or something, can't remember what it is now.

    Bubs can implant 6-10dpo so it's not outside the realms of possibility.

    Plus, if any of you are like me in the 2ww, I'm way too hot to sleep properly/normally, kicking covers off and taking paracetamol to cool me down enough to get to sleep, and that affects my sleep too lol

    Hiya bigzippy - thanks for the welcome yesterday.

    I know I take them at different times. For some reason I seem to want to wake up at about 3.30am every morning, so I temp then as it takes me about an hour to get back to sleep and my husbands alarm goes off at 6.10am.

    I have kept a note of the 6.10 temps too and obviously they are much higher, and they don't show the dip so much, just increasing temps.

    I'm a bit confused about what FF thinks, as the chart shows predicted AF tomorrow, but the calendar bit doesn't show it coming on until Sunday? Weird.

    I did have one 29 day cycle, but all the others have been 24-25 days. This is my first month temping though, so FF has given me a testing date of next Thursday!! I'm away for work on Wednesday/Thursday though, so it might be Tuesday (17dpo) depending how long i can hold out for.

  • oooh, I know, I know!!

    Euronorris - it's called a fallback-rise pattern and is caused by a secondary estrogen surge just after o.

    bigzippy - I've been feeling really cold the last couple of days, sitting with fleece on and hot water bottle, but hubs says my body is hot enough to fry an egg on!

    Is it only in the 2ww you've been waking up early?

  • bigzippy - now you come to mention it ... Yes.

    Just looked over my chart and I started with the 3.30am wake up's at 4dpo.

    That's what I get like. Can't sleep properly in the 2WW. Hence I now discard them or don't bother once I've seen the ov rise.

    I told doc about not being able to sleep once, and he said that often it's simply that your brain is too hot (a small rise counts for the brain) and that taking paracetamol can help - hence I now do (and drinking lots of water so you can sweat out the heat like you're supposed to) but that takes a hit on the temps too.

    Don't sweat the small stuff. I know it's annoying, but I'd say you're still in with a chance and should know in the next day or so :D Fingers crossed! fingersx.gif

  • Thanks!

    I think it's just because it's my first month temping, so I don't know what's normal, if that makes any sense.

    Good to know I'm not completely weird..although oddly attached to the idea of a "hot brain" :eek:
