Temping and overactive subconscious

GreekyPieGreekyPie
in Trying to Get Pregnant
I'm convinced it is my over-active mind that is screwing up my waking times and causing my temping to be more difficult. I record the temp every morning and the next 18 hours are spent thinking "if my next temp is higher, then ...." and I think my brain churns on it. I am not sleeping well and I find myself waking way earlier than planned (hours early). Freaking brain. If I can't get over this, I may need to take a break from temping.

    I don't know what to tell you. You're damed if you do temp, because you obsess, but damned if you don't because you wonder. GL to you and simply try to make it routine rather than ration.

    I do the same exact thing. I wake up and think, crap, I'm awake and the alarm hasn't gone off yet...and I just keep my eyes shut and usually fall back asleep pretty quickly. Hopefully the more time goes on and I get used to it, it won't be such a big deal!

    My first month of charting was like that.  Now I'm in such of habit of it that it doesn't really consume me too much.  It will get better.

    This is why I don't chart.

    My first TTC chart last cycle was like that.  This cycle I've been more laid back about it.
