Starting the temping now probably is not going to help you much but is good idea.

It is always a good idea to get to know your body a little bit better than before, especially when TTC.

Most likely you have already O'd (OPK's don't always show it) and your temps are going to be in your high range. It is important to note however that every person has their own high and low range and your temps are not going to match anyone elses.

If you have not already O, or if I is current occuring, you will see a temp shift but it may not be enough temps for FF (or whatever you are using) to determine an O date ... all that can be done is speculate.

When I first started temping, I started mid-cycle too ... somehow I got my body the day before O and I got to see 1 low temp before it started going up ... at least I assume that was the day before I ... I guess I could've O'd sooner and my temps could've just had a hormonal dip that day ...

most people , after they ov, are in the 98.4 range. if you are PG, it stays up, and goes even higher. It is good to temp, it gets you into the routine! go for it!

i think i might be o'ing late, i temped this morning twice. I first woke up at 730am and my temp was 97.4 and then i fell back asleep. I woke up again at 930 and my temp was 96.98. So I'm guessing its still a little on the low side, but maybe rising. I checked cm this morning and it had a little bit of the ewcm consistancy, so i think im gettin there....(((fingers crossed))). hopefully ill temp tomorrow and it will rise more!! :) thanks for the help ladies! any more advice is welcomed!
