Can Anyone Make Sense of This Temping?? Posted: 09-09-05 11:04am
Hi there,
my husband and I have been trying for a
baby for a while now. This month I
started to track my basal temp starting on
day 21 of my cycle. My cycle length is
usually 32 days, I am on day 32 right now
with no period in sight. Thought it felt
like it was going to come as I have been
getting mild cramping. But for the past
week I have had acid in my stomach and
have had some mild nausea. I did a
pregnancy test this morning and it was
negative. My temps have been a bit weird
and I was wondering if anyone could let me
know if they think the dip I had in temp
down to 97.0 was very late ovulation or
possibly implantation?
Here are my temps:
day 21: 97.6
day 22: 97.6
day 23: 97.7
day 24: 97.6
day 25: 97.7
day 26: 97.4
day 27: 97.6
day 28: 97.5
day 29: 97.0 weird drop in temp
day 30: 97.9
day 31: 97.9
day 32: 97.9
if anyone could give me their advice I
would really appreciate it! :d

There is something called the rule of
thumb that says that an errant drop or
rise in temperature can be egnored b/c it
happens randomly to everyone. High
temperatures can be caused by
hyperthyroidism but a more likely cause is
getting up to pee in the middle of the
night. You must get at least 3 streight
hours of sleep for the temp to work. I
cannot use the bbt method b/c of this.
But I have successfully used the billings
method and am most likely pregnant right
now. It is great not having to worry.
I know that I ovulated on the 5th due to
my cervical mucus and cervical position
and I know that and egg was, in fact,
fertalized. Now my issue is waiting to
see if the little guy is going to take.
About 50% of pregnancies are lost in the
first 2 weeks before or during the
menstrual cycle. These are called
chemical pregnancies.

Hi,
i am on day 34 right now with no period.
Still getting the nausea and acid in my
stomach. Did anohter pregnancy test this
morning and it is still a negative. How
long should it take for a test to be
positive after a missed period. I am
about 1 day late for my period right
now.
Any thoughts from someone who has gone
through the same thing?
