    Question Could this be??

    Hi,

    My husband and I are trying to concieve a child of our own. I have 4 from a previous relationship.
    Basically I see everyone talking about charting their temperatures. I wouldnt even know where to begin to do that, however i know that my average temp (im a nurse, so i like to take it..for something to do i guess?!?!) seems to be around 36.5/6 degrees celcius.
    As said earlier we are trying to concieve and i though i might take my temperature. My temp was 37.2 and im way past ovulation. 6 days until AF is due. I took it again later and it was still at 37. When i took it this morning it was again and still 37.3. Is this indicitive that i may have possibly concieved this month??
    I am having some major squirmy feelings in my lower abdomen, on and around the pubic line. This is unusual for me as i never seem to get crampy before AF. My BB's are slightly sore, but nothing to write home about. Its odd though because i had the Merina IUD implanted for 3 yrs. I had it taken out 7 months ago and since then have had sore BB's before "that dreaded time"... however this time I dont have sore BB's so to speak. Gosh its just all so confusing... What do you all think??
    Thanks

    leelee: Yay for ttc!! When temping you need to take your temp first thing in the morning before getting up out of bed. Your body temp before o will be lower then after o.. If af is to arrive normally your body temp will drop..

    Here is a link to some successful charts shared on BB..

    Not long until you test I see.. Best of luck I hope you get your BFP

    Hey,
    Thanks for that. I have looked at some charts a couple of times but im not understanding the jargon as such underneath. Maybe some research is called for. LOL.
    Yes i have 2 more days until the supposed arrive of dear AF, however im confident she wont be arriving.
    It is so tempting to test early but have been bitten before so i think i will hold out.
    But yes lots of signs and symptoms that could suggest success, but im not holding my breath.
    Thanks again for the charts...i think im going to spend some time on them!!
    Wish me luck
    Lee

    I was temping and after that 37 plus. i knew i was pregnant and yup all 3 times.

    I told a friend to take her temp before having a positive pregnacy test and it was right for her as well.

    Cant wait to hear!
