Should I log an early temp?

Question

Tomorrow I’m working an early shift and have to wake up at 5:30am. I usually take my temp at 8:15 or 8:30. Is it better to log that temp or to just skip the day? I’ve already decided I’m not going to use a temp adjuster because I feel like that’s even more inaccurate. 
I’m still trying to confirm ovulation with more temp increases so I’m disappointed that I can’t take it at my usual time!
Any thoughts on what I should do?

Answer

Since it’s your first month... move all your data to the Fertility Friend app now! It is MUCH better/more reliable AND has a way to log temps at what time you took them. It will leave an open circle for days when temp was taken at a different time and will use multiple signs to make predictions. Glow does not.
You will thank me later...
Here is my example from a really weird cycle last month where I ovulated 6 days late and didn’t do well with temping on time at all. I still got a clear thermal shift/ovulation pattern.

Answer

Generally you won’t be able to trust tomorrow’s temp completely. 
For me, if I get up way earlier or later than usual, I log the temp if it seems “normal” or not far from where is would expect it to me. If it varies drastically, then I would record it as a note indicating what it was and what time it was taken, but I would not log it. 
Does that make sense?
