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.
eesh..yea, I obsess too...I think maybe you need to relax with the temping...this cycle I tried to just temp until I confirmed O, then I didn't temp much other then here and there a little just to check because i couldn't resist!!! LOL

That's exactly why I stopped temping...and look what happened!

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!
the last few days was like that for me as my temps continue to increase and my hopes increased as well.. it turns out af as made a visit today... im kicking myself for allowing myself become excited earlier..?

Congrats Toot! I am not temping this cycle either
My first TTC chart last cycle was like that. This cycle I've been more laid back about it.
