Chart Stalk

SassFrass

Ok, so I did charting a couple of years ago, but I never showed an O day, because well, I haven't been doing that on my own for quite some time. I am charting again, and I was just wondering if it is normal for a significant temp drop before O? My temps were in the 98's and then dropped waaaaay down the last couple of days... I am temping vaginally, so I don't really know much about that either, maybe I am not doing it right, like not far enough? Or is this just normal?

I always get a temp drop right before O by about .2-.5 degrees, but some women don't.  It's very possible that you are gearing up to O.  Do you use OPKs?  I hope that you will see a temp rise in a day or two to confirm O.

No, not this cycle, our budget is really tight right now, dh and I both started new jobs at the same time and it kinda hit us in the pocketbook...

I get my OPK's on ebay. It's like $9 for 30 of them with free shipping. I can send you the link if you want. I know how budgets go.

edit: grammar

Here you go - you can mix and match those and pregnancy tests if you are interested.
