temping with BFing baby early wake ups?

[Cee_Cee99]

My DH and I would like to start trying for baby number two...

My cycle is between 33 and 38 days so I would like to take my temp to determine when I ovulate as I'm pretty irregular. (I did this with baby No. 1 and it worked like a charm)...However, No.1 wakes for a BF between 4.30 and 5.30 every morning? So I'm not sure if taking my temp is going to be accurate, as last time I was told to take it at the same time every morning not before 5am... does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do????

i think it would be ok to take it that early as long as it's the same time each day and you have had atleast 3 hours of rest (sleep) straight before getting up and not eaten/drank etc. I wouldnt take it after BF and there is probably no way that you get back to bed for very long afterwards.
Try temping and checking cm together to get a clearer picture of when you ovulate as cm is probably a more clear indicator of o anyway. Good Luck

I would take your temp as soon as bubby wakes for a feed! Then that way u take it at arund the same time everyday!

Hi CC! thats great u guys are TTC again soon!
I would either take your temp first thing when Ally wakes up, i havent heard of not being able to take it before 5am?
Another suggestion ive heard people doing is setting an alarm at a certain time each night, they then take their temp write it down and go back to sleep. If your the sort of person that could fall straight back to sleep and DH wouldnt wake up from the alarm it could be an option?
I think too a combo of CM and temp taking will help collate all the info to help you predict O time.
GOOD LUCK!!
