Was 96.51 and yeaterday it was 97.78. It's always usually in the 97's. What could be the reason of my temp dropping?

You could be ovulating. Have you noticed a difference in your cm? Are you using opk's?

No...I'm expecting af this weekend, actually yesterday or today. No, I really can't tell any difference in my cm. I havn't started using opk's yet I was gonna wait until after af came because I thought it was too late to start testing when I got them in.

If af is due soon. That is probably why you had the temp dip. Your temp will go back down (drop) Usually the day or day before you get af. Sorry.
You'll be able to start from scratch this month though. And you will probably be able to see a good pattern now.

I'm sorry hun.
You're right though. It would have been to late to start using opk's this cycle. But you can use them this cycle.
How long have you been ttc?

That's ok. Don't let it discourage you.
I'm sure you'll get pregnant before you know it.
Are you guys just 'going with the flow'? Or did you want to start using the opks? I don't want to come off pushy with anything.
I can't see your chart from work. What Cd are you on today?

I'm on CD 37. After af i'm gonna start using the opks. You're not pushy. It's always good to talk to someone about it.

I suggest getting some opk's offline. Most of us get them from ebay. They are really cheap and that way you can test twice a day if you want to.
Is this a normal cycle length for you? Or are you irregular?
If this is a normal length you will probably want to start using your opk's on cd17 just to be sure. But you probably wouldn't ovulate until around cd 23.

I did order my from ebay! Someone on here suggested it to me, i forgot who.
I've been irregular ever since I got off BC in April. So far the longest has been 37 days. It seems every cycle it goes a day or 2 longer. I really wish it would be regular. It use to be back in high school and early college. The BC messed me up!
