Oura + FertilityFriend temp reading

Hi everyone, I got my Oura earlier this week and linked it with FF. I noticed it only gets temp data from when I wake up. It varies by 1-2 hours sometimes I can sleep in sometimes I wake up early. I don’t know if this will affect analyzing the readings later. I’m trying to see if there’s a way for it to grab temps at the same time everyday (example set it to 6am?). Has anyone else dealt with this does it make a difference for being able to pick up when you’re ovulating?

Black Bear sighting on Rubicon Trail

Hi everyone. My husband and I are visiting SLT we went hiking today on the Rubicon trail and on our way back around 1pm there was a black bear near the foresty part of the trail. It was so cool to see! But at the same time I was very scared. We just calmly started walking back the other way since we weren’t sure what to do in the moment didn’t encounter one before this but I know I’ve been told not to run. As we’re walking I saw a group of teenage girls walking alone towards us and made them aware of the bear in the area, they went to see for themselves taking photos. The bear seems to get closer on the trail and they all start freaking out and running away. I didn’t panic before they did this , but now it was following my husband on the trail as he was slowly walking behind me. My husband kept calm walking but to be honest I was speed walking and he kept telling me it’s still behind me and I would look back and sure enough it was. About 5 min Eventually I think the bear got bored and gave up went its own way.

I just want to make sure we’re prepared for our next hikes. I know they’re generally harmless and making loud noises/clapping can scare it (couldn’t think in the moment) anything we should add to our bags such as a bear bell , or take hiking sticks etc? Anything else to know. We also had packaged snacks and sunscreen in our backpack should we not bring those anymore. Thank you so much

TTC & Oura Ring - worth it?

Hi I am thinking about getting the ring to assist in the process we have been trying for 6 months. Currently use LH strips. Normal cycles no health issues. My concern is becoming obsessive about the data. I manually tracked bbt last cycle and felt horrible waking up seeing the temp starting dropping closer to my period it would ruin my day tbh. In a sense I’m worried this device will cause more anxiety/stress than necessary.

I’m interested in hearing other experiences, if you get anxious at all or how you deal with this. I’d be interested to know:

  1. Does it accurately predict your ovulation day based on your stats or is it going based on your input in NC/FF
  2. Is there currently a way to hide temperature insights from showing
  3. is it true it takes about 60 days to get to know you to be able to assist with TTC?
  4. I am curious the advantage of the ring in terms of assisting with the process. Reading stories people have tried for a year or so and fall pregnant once they do ring + NC, curious how this combo lead to success as I don’t fully understand it yet

I am just trying to gauge if it’s right for me, thank you:)
