Day 17 (CD6)

*sigh* This morning was a let-down. I missed the alarm and slept in till 8am, totally messing up my temps, giving me a 97.9 (silly thermometer, that's a post-ovulation temp!) Even adjusted, it would be 97.5 which is more likely but still not in line with all my nice little 97.1s. *sigh*

So, may this be a reminder to everyone that if you are charting your basal body temperature in order to determine ovulation, you NEED to take your temperature at the SAME TIME every morning. Without that consistency, your temps really have no meaning at all. Or, you're stuck like me not having any idea what the temp means and having to throw it out entirely. *sigh*
