Trying to Get Pregnant

Temping during period

For some reason I thought you didn't have to temp during your period, but I just looked back at my old charts from when I TTC my first and it looks like I did.  I tried to find info on the FF site but its apparently having issues right now and won't load the FAQ page :( 

I got my period two days ago and have not temped yet, is it ok to start now or will that screw things up?  

TIA

    I temp during my period, to stay in the habit. But I've seen people who dont. I suppose it's up to you.

  • I don't temp during it. I don't see the point, really. Gives me a break from worrying about it.

    Esp if you're temping vaginally...

    I don't usually temp during AF as my temps are usually higher during that time. If not temping during AF will throw you off then stick with it.

    To answer your question nothing will be screwed up if you start temping now ;) it's still early in your cycle

    edit: words are hard

    Oh yeah! Mines oral temping so it's easy peasy to continue.

    Same here! If I stop, I'll get out of the habit

  • I temp vaginally so I do not temp during my period. It also give me a break and allows me to sleep in without waking up in the middle of the night.

  • I temp during my period, but one of my periods coincided with us going out of town so I didn't bother to temp on those days (we were in another time zone, too annoying).  It didn't seem to make much of a difference either way.  I agree with PP, my temps are always higher during my period so it's kind of irrelevant.  I just temp when I wake up, I don't wake myself up to temp, but if I was waking myself up just to temp I definitely would not do it during my period.  I hate waking up in the morning.
  • not temping during my period, it's nice to not have to set the alarm when it falls on a weekend
