Can the temperature of your house affect your temp?

I got CHs this morning on CD17. On CD 17, I woke up to the house being 58 degrees. The heater had gone out. If I discard this temp, FF moves my CHs to CD16.

WWYD?

Living in a home without air conditioning, I have found that room temp does not matter all that much. I still have always seen a shift and temps have not be crazy.

Others may disagree.

I haven't noticed a difference in temps personally.

This. No matter if my house was hot or cold, I always see a shift.

I agree with the others. I haven't noticed a difference in my temps if I wake up really hot or really cold.

I'm with other PPs. I wouldn't discard the temp.

My husband is a heater and I'm always cold. I haven't noticed a change in my temp when he turns off the heater in the house and it gets colder. Or vice versa.

I've found house temp doesn't matter at all. I've woken up sweating having to throw off blankets, and my temp was still low, and vice versa, woke up shivering and had a high temp. It doesn't seem to matter at all, your inner thermostat will still do what it will.

Thanks ladies.

It doesn't really matter anyway. We had shitty a$$ timing either way since DH was gone for work.

I had the same question. I was traveling a lot last cycle and I didn't get a temp rise. The hotel room was 10 degrees cooler than my house and I was not sure if that affected my temp or I just didn't O.

My chart looks better this cycle but I also started using heater this week due to a cold spell so I guess I'm still not sure.

FF does list change in room temp as a factor that can affect your BBT: https://www.fertilityfriend.com/Faqs/Factors-that-affect-temperatures-.html

It may depend partially on if you were using a lot of blankets or if you woke up totally freezing... I probably wouldn't discard it based on that but just make a note of it and keep it in the back of your mind in case something else in your chart seems weird going forward.

Not enough for me to notice a difference. I've always been able to detect a clear shift.

I can tell a difference if its a drastic change in temp but ive still been able to see a shift over the whole month. Ive gotten down to like very low 96 temps when house has been real cold.
