bbt ?

I have a quick question.

Yesturday afternoon, I had a +opk. When I temp'd this morning, my temp only rose by 0.2. Did I ovulate? I know a consecutive 3 days of a temp rise is needed to confirm ov. But isn't a strong temp rise of >0.4 needed to signify ov.

Thanks for help figuring this stuff out.
Lynn

Hi Lynn! All you need is a rise of .2 degree (and with a slow rise pattern, you sometimes see rises of only .1) over your previous 6 temps. Was the .2 rise today higher than your previous 6 temps? If so and if your temp stays up now, it sounds like you did O. But with a ++OPK only yesterday, I would definitely BMS today and probably tomorrow too just in case.

Best of luck and if you have any questions about your temps, we'd be happy to take a look at them and help you as best we can.

Hi Maura...

You're great and so helpful, I truly appreciate you. My 0.2 rise was only 0.2 higher than yesturday's temp, but lower than a few previous ones. I have included the ticker below for your review.

Hi Lynn! I couldn't open your chart for some reason. Can you try to regenerate again? In the meantime, if your temp today was lower than a few recent previous ones (in that 6 day window leading up to your ++OPK), then I would think you have NOT yet O'd and I would definitely keep BMSing!

I'll check back+++++++++

I'm starting to feel like an idiot. The last one wasnt it either... I hope this one is.

Your opinion greatly appreciated.

Don't feel like an idiot! I saw your chart and it doesn't look like O yet. I would look for a rise to 97.7 (97.6 if slow rise) or higher!

Best of luck and let us know what your temp is tomorrow. And BMS!

Hi Lynn! Yes, I think you did O yesterday, with a coverline of 97.6. Let's hope your temps stay up now!

Good luck and keep us posted++++++++++
