Intro and a Question

Hi ladies, my name is Angie and I'm new to the board. I live in Minneapolis and work (very) part-time as a hospice RN, but mostly stay home with my 11 month old, Eddie. I post semi-regularly on Sept12.

Today is CD4 and have a question about temping that I don't see in the newbie blog. I'm sorry if I missed it.

I have been EBF and having consistent 27-29 day cycles for about 5 months now. My LO is still getting up once at night to BF. Usually this is around 4am, and then he's up around 6 for the day. I know that this isn't ideal per the guidelines I've seen in the past, but I'm wondering what the experts have to say about it. Is it even worth doing? Will it be kind of accurate but not great? Should I just stick to OPKs until he's not getting up anymore? Is appreciate whatever feedback you guys have.

Thanks much!

    Welcome!  Like PPs have said, just temp at 4.  You may as well do it for a cycle or two and see how your chart turns out.  You'll never know if it won't work until you try.

    I'm sorry, I have no advice, but you should look out for the BFing and TTCing thread that's posted weekly and join it! 

    There are quite a few BFing mamas on here, so I'm sure someone will be able to answer your question.  :)

    Awesome, I will watch for it. Thanks for the warm welcome!

    Welcome and good luck!  No advice on BFing and TTC, but I would temp at whatever time I most consistently had 3 hours of sleep.
