Confused

[OJazzy1]

OK. I know I am confused about charting a lot, haha but hang in there with me because I am quite new to it. Here is the odd thing. I now have days of wet or eggwhite CM and a super soft open high cervix. I am sick to my stomach all day long and have had ovulation cramping for days. I also had a little bit of blood laced CM (bright red). I ditched some of my earlier temps because of waking up at funky times and someone suggested it might be a good idea... right now my temps aren't making any sense to me, they all seem a bit high but I am assuming I just have not actually ovulated yet? Can someone make a little sense out of this for me. TIA

errrrrrrrr

your temps seem a little crazy to me 95.anything seems like you would be nearing hypothermia.... do you temp orally?

[OJazzy1]

Yes I temp orally. I am usually fairly low but that is a little bit crazy. I figured that at least if I got the changes in it didn't matter too much what the temps are. I am thinking if I am not pregnant this cycle that maybe I will start temping vaginally.

[MaerynPearl]

it does matter if you are jumping around by a whole 2 degrees!

Try temping vaginally starting now. Switching over mid-cycle will make your temps seem to rise even if they havent yet (vaginal temping tends to be much warmer but is also a lot harder to mess up... mouth breathing/stuffy nose, talking, drinking... those things wont effect it like it does with oral temping)

Also... be sure you are using a good basal thermometer... fever thermometers are not meant for basal temping.

agree. either something is funky with the way you are temping or with your thermometer. get a new bbt therm, i think vag temp is a good idea in your case, and figure this chart may not show you what you are looking for. but that's ok. go by cm/cp, and just dtd whenever you can. maybe there wont be a next chart, but if there is, you will figure it out before then i think.
