Can I get a chart stalk?

PinkCamino

I started vag temping this cycle and my temps are really consistent. I got a huge spike this morning which would be in-line with my typical O. But, Dh and I had a few drinks last night because he was feeling really pressured to perform. (not sure if drinking effets vag temps too?) My question: based on my temp, do you think we can skip BDing? He's been really struggling this cycle and if I can avoid having to put him on the spot again I think it would be best. I'm planning to confirm with an OPK this afternoon but he'll be home for a few hours and I figure if we're going to BD it might be easier to get it done this morning.

Hahaa, I love you!  Your link goes to my chart!

But, I was stalking your chart this morning anyways, and I saw the temp rise and thought O, especially since it was cd13. 

However, how many drinks constitutes a few?  If it was just two, I would say that you can trust your temp, but if it was, say 4 (especially since you are not really a drinker) then I might not trust it as much.

Personally, I would probably skip the day, but I know you, so I will say to try and HIO this morning if he is up for it.

Ha! I was chart stalking you this AM and I must have linked to your chart.

I drank maybe 3oz of scotch? Maybe. I made it seem like I was drinking to make Dh feel better about the situation.

Thanks love! Let me go and try my morning magic - although, I think I have Oed.

@sterling13 maybe that works?

I agree Pink!

I asked almost this exact question a week ago I'm going to say I think you O'd and your safe to not BD if you (or YH) have had enough for the week.

ETA: grammar.

Congrats on the Oing Pink!

Thanks for all your advice ladies! Dh wasn't in the mood so we are skipping today. I think the timing is good regardless!

Man, my temp dropped today. I slept in a summery Pyjamma last night with hardly any blankets so I'm suspecting that had something to do with it. But, the rational part of me is trying to calculate the amount of time I could hypothetically ovulate after that OPK which points to maybe today being O day.

I still think you probably o'd, but I do know (from when I was actually still charting) I did always have a temp spike from drinking.  The OPK+, though, even with the dip today (you'd still be above your coverline, even with that drop) makes me still think you o'd already.  
Good luck!
