Your temp rise sounds similar to mine at ovulation. Hope that's the case! Are your cycles always that long? My RE put me on clomid to shorten my cycles since having really long cycles limits the number of chances you have for getting pg within a year. Good luck to you.

Are you doing anything else besides temping? Have you tried the ovulation sticks or the ovulation monitor? My cycles were also very long and irregular so I opted for the monitor. The bad thing about only temping, is that it tells you that you have already ovulated, so it is just confirming it, where as the test sticks tell you that you are going to ovulate within the next 24 to 48 hours....try using more than one method...Also, are you taking a pre-natal regularly? I was taking one, but always forgot, so I should really say I wasn't taking it because it was only like 1 or 2 a week I would remember......well, one month I decided I was going to make myself take it everyday, and I did and guess what? I ovulated early and got pregnant, instead of ovulating on like cd 32, I ovulated on cd 17.....and I honestly think taking the pre-natal on the regular basis helped me get healthier and I think my egg was healthier being I ovulated early, which would be a more normal, healthy cycle.
