I've just started temping this past weekend. I'm on CD4 and my temps have been in the 96s. This morning I was 96.88...is that normal? The paper charts seem to start at 97 and the sample charts on FF are in the 97s.

I'm super confused!!

Plus, AF only lasted 1.5 days. I spotted a little but nothing like CD1. This is my second cycle off BCP and I went from 35 days to 30. Could my body still be adjusting?

my temps are always way low during AF....but i think i've only been below 97 like once....and the earlier in the day i temp, the lower it tends to be....do you get up super early?

My temps are always super low before I O - usually in the lower 96's - I thought it was wierd too, but I guess that's just normal for me.

I'm up at 5 temping. Maybe in a couple days they'll get up there. So weird!

yikes!!!  5am!  i'm still sleeping for 2+ more hours....

well, i think as long as you're consistent with the time you temp, it should be fine....remember, you're looking for "trends" rather than actual temps....

you get up at 5am on weekends too?

off topic: have you been to the dog park on Golden Lantern in LN?

Yeah, I've had temps in the 96 range, always during af

Stupid question..when is AF actually over? I've spotted a little, does that mean I'm still on?

And Jax, I got up early on Sat to temp but on Sunday I left my phone in the car and didn't wake up! HA! I don't know how long it will last. My thermometer beeps and woke DH up. heehee

And nope, never been to that park. But we could have a date there!

my temps are low as well.  I have temps sometimes at 96.6 and my high is generally only 97.2 or so.  My thermometer says a normal pre-o range is 96.5-98.

Mine are low as well, and I temp at 5:15. Pre-O Im usually in the mid 96's to low 97's and my cover line is usually around 97.2. After O Im In the mid to high 97's. Ive only gotten up to 98 in my BFP cycle. Weird, they always say 98.6 is 'normal'.
