First Day Temping 5DPO any ideas?

I have a quick question. I only temped this morning when I woke up for the first time. Now it came up 97.4. I'm seeing all these charts after O at 98.5 and above. Is everyones temp that high if possibly PG or does it differ per person. Wondering if a temp is 97 something if that means definitely not PG or what. I know you can't tell just by temperature especially if you've only done it one day but just wondering. Are there any defints or does it differ per person. Has anyone had temps in the 97's and been PG..I'm 5 DPO and wondering if I am PG if the temps will go up or what? Any ideas?

*hugs*

It varies from person to person, and from cycle to cycle. I have had my post-O temps be well over the 98's, and some cycles I never

My temperature almost never gets to 98, even after I O. Temps vary from person to person. Very few people ever really are at 98.6. You just have to temp for a whole cycle to see what is normal for you.

LIke pp said, it varies, do not worry.

also, i have two very good basal therms. They are consistant, but each is .5 degree different from the other. One reads that i am 97's before O, and 98.4 after. but my other therm shows that i am 96's before, and 97.7 after!! which is my actual temp? i dont know, it doesnt matter, as long as the thermal shift is apparent.

So it might just be your thermo.

of course, MAYBE you did not o yet - so if you see EWCM, make sure to bd. and keep temping to confirm.
