    For ovulation to occur it has to rise, but some ppl get very minor pattern rise,which is easy to miss if u never seen it before.

    As little as 0.5 would count as a rise?

    There is an application called fertility friend which u can download, u input ur temperatures and it will draw a graph, from the graph u can easily see temp patterns.
    Here is my old chart.

    Is that all temperatures that you have? If so then it's not enough to say anything about ur ovulation yet. You also need to temp all cycle including during period and then u see it nicely as on my chart above.

    HiThere just had a quick question I was doing some research and see that you’re supposed to check your BBT around the same time every day. I work night shift so that would be impossible as I do not lay down for three hours the same time every day what do you suggest thanks

    If u have two different sleep patterns I would choose two bbt times. Just ensure u always take bbt at the same time during both options and that u have enough sleep. Ensure u have correct time added at each measurement. It may give u some minor variation on the chart, but shouldn't give u trouble with overall picture. I would try it this way and when u have more data u can see how different time affect ur chart, or ask me I can try to help. But as I say it should still clearly show ur ovulation
