Charting Question

in TTC after 35
I am almost done reading TCOYF however I was re-reading my notes and just realized I should have started temping the first day of my period. I am on day three now...can I just start in the morning? I know it won't be a complete picture, but....Opinions...

    Many women don't temp through their periods, as long as you're not typically an early ovulator and can get six or more temps in before you ovulate, you should be fine to just start tomorrow. May as well just do it anyways and see what happens.

    Great minds think alike :) I figured it can't hurt and it will help me begin getting in the habit too.

    Agreed.  And, it takes few cycles to see the pattern.

    Just start, I think many women don't chart during AF, I also wait an additional week to start because I know I don't O (if I am going to) until almost cd 20.....so I am on a blissful break for 5 more days :D
