temp drop at 3dpo or no O?

Hi everyone, I have been dragging through this long cycle wondering if I was ever going to O. And my temps have been playing tricks on me so I am very wary of confirming O. A few days ago, ff gave me crosshairs then took them away. Then a few days later, I noticed my cervix seemed soft and open and I had a bit of ewcm. I actually took the adviceof women on here and tried the ewcm test w/ water which really works! The cm did not disolve, instead it stayed in a clump at the bottom of cup. (In case anyone wants to see if it's semen or egg white, try doing the water test).

Anyways, on Wed. my temp went super low, lower than it had ever been 96.2 and I just in case I was Oing I bded that night. The next morning my temp went to 98, then the next to 98.2, which are much higher temps than I am used to, they barely go over the 97s even post-O. Well this morning my temp was at 97.4! I was so upset. Is this a normal thing to happen at 3dpo, or may I actually not have Oed after all? Does anyone see a huge dip in temps just 3dpo like this? Here's my chart let me know what you think: Thanks!!

I have looked at hundreds of charts, and almost every one has a dip at 3 to 5 days post O, so don't worry, this is normal!! should go up in the am, if you did in fact O.

baby dust!!

Thanks, I guess we will see what happens tomorrow. I was just looking for some reassuring words and I am so hoping those high temps were O and not some fluke temps! .

Jenny, Congrats! It's great to see you are still supporting all the ladies here. Happy 9 months to you!
