Which temp to use???

Morning girls,

OK, I know that taking two temps per morning is just plain confusing, but I had to this morning because my first temp was so insanely high. When I first woke up, my temp was 99.98!! So, I hit snooze and took it again in about ten minutes - 97.87! So, which should I use...the more "reasonable" one (97.87) or the actual waking one (99.98)?? Thanks!!

I would use the temp that was taken at the time you normally wake up. Since you might have a fever or something the 99 can be disgarded.

I hope that helps!

Thanks Cat!! I put in my insanely high temp for now, and I can always discard it if I change my mind later. What is with my crazy temp spikes this cycle anyway?? Is running a sporadic, low-grade, only-in-the-morning fever a symptom of PG? Or some other horrible disease that I probably have? ;)

Ohhh I'm sooo hoping that temp spike is due to pregnancy for you! Sending lots of AFSA vibes. Keep us posted.

Hi ADC,

I would keep the first temp since that was your "resting temp". I am hoping that your temp spike is a good sign for a BFP!

~~~~~~~AFSA vibes ~~~~~~~ to you!!
