Question about temping.
I know you're supposed to temp as soon as you wake up and before you get out bed, right? Here's the BIG question - I sleep with an electric blanket on low every night, is this going to make a difference with my temps?
TIA,

The problem is that temping will not tell you when you are going to ovulate or are currently ovulating. It tells you AFTER you have ovulated. You need to BD before the temp spike. And yes, if you ovulate, the temp spike is very obvious. Temping is good, because it will help you notice patterns and will confirm if you truly do O. Some people don't.
To time your BD, other than using OPKs, the best thing to do is check your cervical mucuous. It should be egg white or watery during the fertile period before O'ing. After you ovulate, it will dry up or become sticky/creamy.
Good luck.
