Is it the oral temperature?
My morning armpit temp is about 36.4-36.6, and I would like to see it increase… (and my fingers are usually cool in the first half of the day).In my experience it can. A couple of days ago I had a pelvic issue of misalignment fixed and it was followed by a a marked raise in temperature the next days.
Square breathing is you inhale for 4, hold for 4, exhale for 4, hold for 4, inhale for 4… It appears to be really calming for me.
@ Linda – have you tried things like square breathing and some sort of meditation? That was helping during the last nights of my second pregnancy.
I also noticed improved digestion. I was having difficulties digesting grains and beans before. So far with less fluids I didn’t have any problems with lentils, buckwheat and wheat.
Well, today wasn’t exactly a good day for my temperature. Last night I woke up and I think I was just hungry. I think I still can’t figure out how much to eat and for some reason I have no appetite. I’m trying to eat more than I want, but apparently it is still not enough… I first tried the salt and sugar thing, but it didn’t help. Then I ate some sweet potato, meat and a banana. Still didn’t fall asleep…
I was also trying to figure out how much fluids to drink. Today I decided not to dring, but to eat juicy veges/fruits. So I had a really big red pepper with breakfast and about 200grams of strawberries until 2pm. Well, my temps were about .5C or more less than the days before.
I find it quite frustrating, and I fell like I don’t know what to do, what to eat, how much to drink etc…
May be I was also a bit overtired from too much walking the day before.
When i started, I was adding salt to all my drinks, which I stopped a few days ago, because I fell like I drink so little, and I can’t even taste my drinks, and… I also stopped taking my supplements to see what the actual color of urine is, and I think it is fine (yellow).
Interesting observation – when I have lower temperatures, I have less breastmilk ( I express every evening and in general, the higher the temperature, the more breastmilk I can express).
How long did it take?
I just now realized that my obsession with food is probably a lot greater than I thought, but I’m getting there :)
