    Help - BBT charting

    Hi everyone,

    Hoping someone can give me some feedback or advice as I am a little confused. I have been charting on FF for the last 3 cycles and my temp dropped from 36.85 to 36.10 on 10 DPO. It then went up to 36.91 today. I know I have not been charting very long and I don't want to read too much into it but I have also read that you can have a implantation dip anywhere between 5-12 DPO. I know this doesn't always necessarily lead to pregnancy but this hasn't happened to me before. It is actually the lowest temp I have recorded so far.

    Yesterday was 12 months since my m/c so I am so hoping that October is my lucky month again and I will soon get a BFP and sticky bub!

    I know it is different for everyone and don't expect a definitive answer but just want to know if anyone has experienced such a large dip and if so what the results were?

    I am having a few other pg symptoms but they are also symptoms I get leading up to AF so I can't take much notice them.

    Thanks,

    Mel

    It's hard to say really. I've had implantation dips with my last two pregnancies.

    I had a 36.7 temp at 8DPO then 3 day implantation dip at 36.4 on 9,10 & 11DPO then raised to 36.6 by 13DPO. +HPT at 13DPO but resulted in an early miscarriage.

    I had a 36.6 temp at 5DPO then dropped for 2 days to 36.1 for 6&7DPO. It then raised to a high of 37.0 on 12DPO & I got a +HPT on that day. That pregnancy resulted in Brock.

    I've also had a 3 day dip when I wasn't pregnant but it was not as pronounced as my implantation dips were.

    I hope this info helps.

    Mel - It could be implantation dip. An implantation dip is confirmed on FF but 3 days of higher temps post dip. HTH and goodluck hon

    Thanks heaps for your replies.

    I know it could mean nothing and am trying not to get my hopes up but at the same time I think you need to have some hope to keep going with the TTC journey!

    Satya - Brock is gorgeous!
