Hey everyone, I have been searching the internet and my books trying to figure out what this means.
When everyone says post ovulation temps need to be at least .4 degrees higher, what is the higher from? Should it be .4 degrees higher than the day before, or .4 higher than any of my previous temps this cycle?
For example, my highest preovulatory temp was 97.9, but my 5 days before ovulation ranges from 97.0-97.2. Then I had an increase to 97.5 then 97.7 the next day, which is today. Is this high enough to conclude I've ovulated? Or does it need to be higher than 97.9? I'm confused.... Thanks

It sounds like you were just about to ovulate at the time of the first increase,if your temp stays up around the same higher range you mentioned for about 2 weeks then drops back down, it is a pretty sure bet you are ovuating.

Why don't you get an ovulation test kit at the drug store. Then you don't have to worry about all that stuff?
A NORMAL temperature is 98.6 so you are still below that.
Get a test kit.
