Night guards

Does anyone else wear a night guard? I know, it's horrifying, but apparently I'm a teeth grinder.

Anyways, I just started with it this month and sometimes I temp with it still in and sometimes I take it out. 

I'm kind of thinking it's why my chart looks so out of whack this month.

Anyone? Anyone?

    Yep- I'm a grinder too and I do the same...sometimes leave it in, sometimes take it out. I haven't noticed that it makes much of a difference, though.

    I don't but if you're worried about consistancy you could always temp vaginally.  Might make a difference.  GL!

    good idea! You should try that.  I couldn't really see anything wrong with your chart beause there is not a lot going on! lol

    I'm a grinder too!  I was out of the habit of wearing my night guard when I was temping orally, but it was a consideration when I decided to switch to temping vaginally.  This way I don't have to choose between my jaw and my BBT.

    Yeah, I started way too late, I think I O'ed early and then flat lined. Sigh.

    I wear one and temp with it out.  I used to temp with it in (nothing was wonky on my chart), but ended up squeezing my lips so tightly, and I was worried I'd give myself wrinkles.  Vain? Yes.  Not taking any chances?  That too.  GL!

    I temp with mine in (mainly because I'm groggy and don't need another thing to worry about when I wake up!)

    I am a little late to the party, but I wear one and I take it out to temp. However this cycle I am trying to figure out if I am a mouth breather or something because my chart and temps are all over the place.....

    That's basically what I was asking. I'm not a mouth breather without the damn thing, but I think it's making me one.

    It's also the grossest, least sexy thing ever. I hate it!! Smile

    this is really funny, because I do wear a night guard religiously every night, but it took me a good minute to even answer your questions!  Seriously, am I asleep when I temp? 

    I do leave it in and it must not get in the way otherwise I'm sure I would have thought to take it out first.  

    It does, however, sometimes mean my mouth is more likely to be open some mornings...but so far not enough to obscure a temp shift (although I have questioned some temps being too low at times).
