I woke up this morning to discover that my temp had not only NOT risen; it had fallen by one-tenth of a degree. I panicked and feverishly logged onto every TTC forum I belong to and posted my chart for everyone to look at. All replies seems to say that it's fine; it's only one tenth of a degree, not enough to mean anything. But I'm still concerned. I mean, my chart from the cycle where I got pregnant was picture-perfect. A textbook example of what a BBT chart should look like. And this cycle, well, it's all over the map. It's so frustrating. I know I can't control what my body is doing, but it would be nice to at least understand what's going on.
Here is my chart, below. If anyone can make any sense of what is happening, I'd be forever in your debt. What concerns me most is how erratic my temps have been. Also, I'm not thrilled with this morning's slight temp dip.

I'm going to talk to Dr. S about my chart tomorrow when I go for acupuncture. Maybe he will have some insight for me.
In other news, D and I went out to lunch and shopping with L and her husband today. It was fun, although my jealousy of L and her sucessful pregnancy makes it hard for me to really enjoy their company sometimes. Interestingly, while we walking around, I felt very wet "down there". When I went to the washroom, I discovered a bit of thick, transparent CM. It wasn't egg-white, too thick for that. But it was plentiful and it felt weird. I also noticed that some of it was slightly brownish-pink. I'm positive that it's too early for implantation at 3 DPO, but I do wonder what it means. I'm going to break my internet rule for a few minutes and see if I can find any relating information.
My house is a mess. A total disaster. Ug. I really gotta clean today.

I have a homework assignment for you. :) Play fertility friend's chart game (you note the ovulation day of a series of other people's charts). I think that looking at those other charts will help you relax about your own. There are lots of degrees of normal.
I know you are flipping out with your chart. I've been there and done that way to many times to count. However my doctor explained to me that if you were to look at a woman's chart (who does not have fertility issues mind you) for 12 concutitive months, you will find 2 of those 12 cycles, she didn't even ovulate. Now with that being said, I've looked and your chart and think things are just where they are supposed to be. I know it when down 1/10 of a degree, but your temp is likely to fluctuate like that. As long as its in your overall high range it's good. Don't stress. That will only cause more problems.
