Temps are corrected & stand as thus.

untitled Temps are corrected & stand as thus. Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinteresting. Many, many thanks to kdodge & her use of VIP abilties as a favor to me. She plugged the numbers into her VIP FF and they adjusted my temps to 36.97 to make up for the 30 minute-earlier waking temp.

Looks like we have a Phelps-ish temp for this morning.

Gold vs. Silver

Just like the Olympics, my success is being dictated by 0.10. Kind of like Micheal Phelps vs the Frenchie swimmers. Gold vs Silver. Success vs epic failure.

I woke up at 5:30am this morning and decided to temp instead of the stress of falling back asleep, waking up at 6, yada yada yada. But what I cannot remember is how to adjust my temp & FF gives no assistance other than to say it’s not a bullet-proof method. ::sigh:: No kidding, Sherlock. But I did temp at a different time for the first time this entire cycle, so I think I might should adjust it (side note: I almost edited “might should” out, but then realized the non-Southeners that read my blog would probably get a kick out of it). I remember reading on BOTB the other day that each 30 minutes prior to normal waking time is an adjustment of 0.10. That seems high to me though & there’s nobody loser-ish enough to be on the board at 7:45am worrying about waking temps.

Scenario #1 — The French rule my temps.
untitled Gold vs. Silver

No temp adjustment. The BBT read 36.81, which is right in line with my other temps, but the beginning of a dip down. The spotting has stopped, but to me, this pretty much signals “game over” for Cycle #1, considering AF is due in 2 days. FAIL. Silver medal, no Wheaties box cover for my uterus.

Scenario #2 — Phelps rules my uterus.

untitled Gold vs. Silver
With the 0.10 adjustment due to 30 minutes, making my waking temp 36.91 and a slight temp rise. This one, of course, makes me feel warm & fuzzy inside but I refuse to adjust my temps just to make me feel optomistic. Phelps on the cover of Time, all glorious medals around his neck in a halter-top formation.
Like I said, spotting has stopped. It spotted heavily yesterday (well, as “heavily” as you can spot without starting AF) for about 30 minutes, all brown like vagina-poop (so nasty, but it made me laugh while I was perusing TJ Maxx & pondering things like spotting, temps, & pee sticks). Then stopped cold turkey.
Both my body & mind are effing with me to the point that I’m comparing my uterus to the Chinese Water Cube.
