use the first one because it would be more accurate then the second one when you got up. If you adjust it its .1 for every 30 mins you rise early and .1 off for every 30 mins your rise later. They say you can temp within an hour of the normal time u usually do. I hope that helps!

The correct temp to use is the very first temp you took when you woke up - even if it was an hour early. I'm not sure I understood the progression, but if you did take your temp immediately when you woke up, that is the best temp to take - note the time on FF, and it will appear as an open circle on your chart. If you didn't take your first temp until after you had been awake for a while, then you may not have a valid temp for today.
