Chart Stalk Please?

Over the past few days I just got this weird "hump" in my chart. All of my post O temps were very close to each other except this. Does it mean anything at all? Perhaps user error?

Why do you have so many open circles? That could be throwing off some of the temps. But the rise/fall can mean anything.

Are you using a BBT?  You might want to try one that goes to the .00 decimal.  That will detect smaller changes in temperature that might make a difference.  I agree with FF on your O date with the information given, but the open circles might be throwing things off too.  Adding in consistent checking of CM and OPK's would also give FF more data to go off of.  Good luck!

I'm unsure about the open circles. It seems like some of them are closed then open then closed again. I'm thinking maybe the time that I temp? I try to take it at the same time, but I know that it has varied by no more than 30 minutes if I wake up early.

Can you set an alarm to make sure you get it at the same time? It might help w/ the open circles. 

Like Jschwind said, I would look into getting a  bbt that measures .01 rather than .1. 

Good luck!

I'll look into a new thermometer, I haven't started marking my CM on my chart yet. I hope to next month. I've never paid attention to it before so this month I've been trying to so that I'll have a better idea as to what I should mark it as next month.

Right now I have my alarm set for 5:00 when DH gets up so I can temp, but sometimes I wake up before it goes off. Would it be a good idea to set an alarm for say... 3:30 to temp and then just go back to bed? Or is that too early?

As long as you are getting 3 solid hours of sleep, and stick to that same time daily, it shouldn't be too early. GL!

You've got to see the forest for the trees.  The individual temps are not important; it's the pattern over the whole month.  A little variation before or after ovulation does not mean anything.  The only important thing is the temperature rise at ovulation (3 temps which are higher than the previous 6).  Good Luck!
