Those that work the night shift and chart...

Do you temp? If so, when? I started temping this month, and my chart is wacky. My temps are always higher when I work and take my temp in the afternoon instead of the morning. I bought some OPK and plan on starting them today...
I work every fri, sat and sun 6pm-6:30am. Should I just not temp those days? Or keep doing as I'm doing? What do you do? I'm new at this, so sorry for all the questions.
I also don't know how to post a link to my chart...sorry!

Re: Those that work the night shift and chart...
This was my first cycle temping and I work nights, usually Sun, Mon, and Tues 7PM-7:30AM. I also tried to temp whenever I woke up no matter the time and it didn't work very well! Like you said my temps were usually higher in the afternoons and they were just all over the place!!! Anyway, next cycle I am planning on setting my alarm on the days after work for around 12:00 or 1:00 (and then go back to sleep), I figure that will give me enough sleep to count, but will also give me consistency of doing it at the same time everyday!! My days off I usually wake up around the same time anyway (10-11 AM), so it should be ok!!
Hope this helps!!
