BBT confusion
Hello! So, I just started taking my BBT mid-cycle and I’m still a bit confused. I’ve only been taking it for 3 days and my temperature keep increasing. On the 6th, it was 97.4, the 7th was 97.9 and today is 98.1. I keep my room the same temperature and go to bed at the same time and wake to take it at the same time.
Is it normal for my temperature to be rising like this? Or could something be affecting it? Sorry for a long post and question

Hi! Since you started taking your temp mid cycle this is probably completely normal. Your temperature rises after ovulation and remains elevated until you get your next period. Some people get a dip around the time of implantation followed by a rise and sustained higher temps throughout pregnancy! Good luck!!

You can expect your temp to stay elevated and/or keep rising whether you are pregnant or not (assuming you have already ovulated). You will get a big dip right before your period around 14 DPO. Then it will stay low until you ovulate again. Just keep temping and learn the pattern that is specific to you. After one or two cycles you will get the hang of it. If 14 days pass and your temp is still high and you have not gotten your period, you should take an HPT!! Best of luck to you!
