Did Anyone Do the Tempature Thing? Posted: 02-25-05 10:57am
My husband and I have been ttc for 6
months now and I am getting frustrated.
This month I decided I was going to take
my tempature since I knew that my periods
were regular and came about every 28-29
days. From the day my period ended it
was about 97.1 first thing in the morning.
(i am using just a regular thermometer
in the mouth) on tuesday it was 97.5 so
my husband and I had sex that day and the
day after. (we also had sex on sunday
night) he pounched on me while I was
trying to make the bed after doing the
laundry) anyways I have been taking my
temp since then and it has gone back down
to 97.1. I read somewhere that you temp
would stay up till you next period and if
you were pregnant it would stay up a bit
higher.
(put the pillow under the bum and stayed
that way for about 1/2 hour or so)
am I just reading into things or what?

I took my temp, but I was never ttc while
I did nfp. So, i'm not sure. I'm going
to look into that right now.

I found this:
if conception did occur some women notice
a second increase in temperatures about
the time implantation occurs, 6 days after
ovulation. When this happens it is called
a triphasic pattern. This doesn't happen
for everyone who conceives but it does
happen for some.

Here's the site I found that at, but I
don't know if I agree with all the info.
I'm going to look around a bit more.
So my temp was 97.5 on tuesday and
wednesday when we had sex. Now it is
97.1. I guess I should just watch it for
the rest of my cycle and see what happens.
I so what a child and my husband and
friends think that I am obsessed with
reading everything.
I am trying not to stress but I am 31
going on 32 in september and want to get
started with the family thing

Well, it did say it could spike up like 6
days after conception or something, so you
have a couple more days before that.
