I will admit I am not the most consistent with checking my temps. However, it seems that every time I do temp, it is always 97.4 degrees. Doesn't waver by more than 0.1-0.2. What is a more likely rise in temp? Should I "get excited" if it goes up to above 98?
I'm pretty new to charting, but from what I have read, your temperature should go up by anywhere from 0.4 degrees to 1 whole degree after ovulation and should stay elevated for 4 days straight. So if your temperature is consistently 97.4 and goes up above 98 for 4 days straight, chances are you ovulated the day before it was elevated. FF has a lot of good information. I think there should be a link to my chart in my signature (I just started charting this month), and you can sign up and get a lot of good information there.

Good luck!
