in Trying to Get Pregnant
I think people know  am trying to chart and are making my life difficult. Anyways, I usually temp at 6:30 am.... my friend texts and wakes me at 3:45 saying her water broke and headed to the hospital (thanks for the info but grrr). Then hubby decides to call at 4:15... so by 6:30 I have slept like an hour. I temp  then and get 97.22. I go back to sleep for another 3 hours and then temp, I got 97.52, which is the one I put in FF and Ovusoft. FF is saying I STILL haven't ovulated, and Ovusoft is saying I did yesterday. BUT I also checked my CM.. and I have to say its gross... theres so much EWCM...oye. So which temp should I use? Should I try another OPK? Any insight please? TIA

    Looking at your chart I don't think you O'd yet but I'm no expert.

    Hmm. I would go with the first temp.  (Actually when things like this happen, sometimes I just do the average of both)  My temp always rises the longer I've slept so I think doing the higher one would be a stretch.  I believe the thermometer has a +/- degree of error of .30 anyway so either way you'd be fine.

    But I don't think I can use the first one because I only had 1 hour of sleep nd you need atleast 3? Either way I am screwed if I haven't O'd cause my LP will be too short.

    I think you are going to have to use the first temp and make a note that you were sleep deprieved.

    You don't know your LP will be too short at this point.  How could you possibly?  I think you are just having a long cycle and I agree with pp, I don't think you o'd yet.  Keep pluggin away and GL!

    don't average your temps.

    enter the very first temp, always, there are basically no exception to this. Check off sleep deprived, you'll get an open circle, but that's better then none and FF will take that into account when calculating O date.

    write out the circumstances in the notes section.

     Correct. I finally got around to saying this, but it is still early in the morning for me- lol. I personally see charting as a way to see the thermal shift.  I don't take it one temperature at a time for analysis anymore.  If you o'd, 3 high temps will confirm that. Just keep doing the deed when you see fertile fluid.  I used to get so excited about a "high" temp during my long cycle, but it didn't mean sh*t unless it has some high buddies with it.  GL!

    I agree with Craft.  You haven't o'd but it looks like your body is working hard at it so just continue to have sex and don't stress out over 1 temp, that can potentially delay ovulation.  If you have a long cycle then you will have a long cycle, there isn't anything you can do about it.  And as pp said just because you o late doesn't mean you will have a short lp - usually it means you will get AF late.
