Babies: 9 - 12 Months

If you are BF and charting...

I was wondering whether your BBT changes while BF. Before I got pregnant my temp would go from about 97.2 to 97.7 when I ovulated. I still haven't gotten a PP AF and we've been using condoms, so I'm not actively charting. But I think I may have ovulated. I've taken my temp a few times and it's been around 97.8. So, can I be expecting AF soon, or is my temp just high because of BF?

    I'm not charting but I think it makes sense that your temp could be higher.  It's hormones that cause your temp to elevate when you ovulate, so the BF hormones probably affect it also.

    However I don't think you can rely on just a few temps to tell you anything about your cycle.  I think it's more about the pattern of temps and recording a temp shift, not the actual numbers.
