I would ignore it. Unless your at rest for more then 3-4 hours... Reason why you want to test in early AM upon waking is because your heart rate is low and your breathing is normalized. But you never know. You could take a HPT in a couple of days too

You should only be taking your temperature immediately after waking up, before talking, eating, or drinking, and even before getting out of bed.
If you are taking your temps at random times during they day, you will be getting an inaccurate result. The reason you are supposed to do it in the morning after sleep is because of the inactivity, which lowers your temp to your "resting temp".
The higher temps during the day could mean anything, really. You could have moved around a bit and raised your temp, you could've drank something warm recently, or eaten something warm, you could've been wearing warmer clothes or covered up with blankets. I would say that because the method you are using could shift results, to not count on it as an indicator of pregnancy, but to at least keep that in the back of your mind as a higher temp *can* indicate pregnancy.
Good luck! I hope you get your BFP!!

Well, I know how to chart and take my bbt, I just haven't been. Lol, but thanks for the positive words ladies.
